IYA Events at CNO

The CNO had planned to run, support or participate in a number of events throughout the International Year of Astronomy 2009. This page featured the announcements and follow-up reports of all such events. Unfortunately, the weather conditions through most of the year did not present many opportunities for observation at the times available for public events.
