Event Report

Comments and anecdotes about the event:
The quarterly event was well attended. Skyline Regional Park - Buckeye is well suited for night viewing. Some commented on being able to see the milky way. There was a total of 13 telescopes set up viewing objects from galaxies, star clusters to our largest gas planets. Jupiter and Saturn in particular drew a lot of attention. Lines of viewers were 25 deep at each telescope most of the night. Truly an extraordinary event
