The Youth Astronomer Observing Program has been split into the Silver and Gold Levels.  This program is a stepping stone for young astronomers (17 years old or younger) to dip there feet into the Astronomical League's Observing Programs.  Only 25 observations are required from 5 different programs.  For full details check out the updated web page:

As was announced at the Virtual AL-Con, we have a new Observing Challenge Special Award.  In cooperation with NASA's International Observe the Moon Night, we are presenting this new challenge.  The target night for your observations is October 16, 2021.  For complete details, visit our website by clicking here. 

The Observing Program Division has provided another tool to help you find resources from the Astronomical League that will help you with your pursuit of an Observing Program Certification.  It is a quick-cross-reference set up by Observing Program with links to the AL Store page for specific manuals and guides.

As new guides or manuals are developed this page will also be updated.
