How it Works
In a Nutshell:
Advisors print out ranking projects, newsletters, observing forms and conduct meetings with students.  Students work with advisors and parents to fill out and complete ranking projects, observations, or science experiments.   The Advisor comments on these projects and mails them to headquarters.   The Chief Astronomer comments on them and mails back the certificates of completion.  The Chief Astronomer also provides astronomy e-mail alerts, science experiments and general support.
