A Good One
After all that rain and unpredictable weather with the clouds coming and going, it was a frustrating guessing game of when one can get a good, clear night sky for any observing. So, it was very fortunate that I could get a good 2 hours to enjoy last Friday evening getting in some good sights of the Moon and Saturn. :-)
I also invited a parishioner friend and his family to join in the sky-gazing party which they gladly accepted. It was a feast for the eyes as the sky revealed her beauty and vastness of the universe upon which the Moon and Saturn seemed to hang silently in the background.
For the kids that came in for the starry ride, their senses gave in to the wonders and awe of the night sky as they saw for the first time Saturn and her rings which absolutely thrilled them to bits. :-) Meanwhile, the moon was full and its shine was brilliant enough to cause a halo around it that gave a tinge of majesty to the sight!
All in all, a fruitful and enjoyable night and the trusty C80-ED did not disappoint!
