Event

Public Observing at the Van Vleck Observatory occurs monthly all year long.  This was the first event of the year due to poor weather.  Alas, as we opened, the clouds came in to ruin any chance of observing.  Since the event wasn't publicly canceled, we did have some visitors who we engaged in tours and photo sessions with this beautiful instrument.
