Re: Cornland & NWRP
Where could I find the permit?? I don't see it on the NSN site or the BBA website.

Re: Cornland & NWRP

Re: Spooky Objects
I agree Roy. I am amazed at what you read in astronomy books. You might think the authors have never done any observing in real life. That applies to the aperture in the city argument.

Re: Spooky Objects
Nice list Kent. Quite a variety, a tour of the universe. Should also be enlightening if anyone thinks large aperture is not useful in a light polluted area. And coincidentally the APOD for October 24

Picked up the comet from the city tonight.
Kent and I saw the comet from the city tonight. Very bright core with a wide tail and anti tail. Not naked eye from an urban location we had to use a 15 inch telescope and binoculars. It is traveling

Re: Comet Watch
Here is a photo I took with my cell phone camera (after Jeff Goldstein showed me how to get it into Night Mode) of the comet playing peek-a-boo in the clouds.? We actually saw it clearer that cloudy

Re: Comet Watch
Hi Everyone! I hunted for the comet several nights in a row to no avail. I even got together with Seminole State College planetarium staff and the Central Florida Astronomical Society, but visibility

Re: Comet Watch
The good news is you got a cold night where the bugs didn't kill you! I suspect the comet will be around for ECSP and a bit higher. These clouds were weird yesterday. I was out at 8 and it was clear

Comet Watch
Last night Jeff Goldstein, Jeannette Ward, and I went to the Marsh Causeway to see the comet.? We did see it, sometimes when the clouds parted, but it played peek-a-boo until total cloud cover rolled

Re: Comet Campbell County VA 10-14
We didn't go looking for a spot. We stayed in the front yard with cloud coverage and kept looking. Zachery spoted it with binoculars. Then we took pictures with our cell phone. This is in Vienna, VA.

Re: The Comet Tonight
Yes, Roy, that Moon was big and bright, and it cast shadows on the ground.? But it was behind us, rising in the east as we looked west toward the comet.? Also, the clouds covered the Moon while the
