Event Report

Comments and anecdotes about the event:
It warmed up into the 60’s for tonight’s event, a vast improvement over the recent arctic freeze and 20-degree temperatures we experienced last week. We had a nice turnout of 25 visitors who were able to see 5 planets, the Orion Nebula, satellites and an overhead pass of the ISS. There were 6 members as presenters with 4 telescopes and 2 pairs of binoculars. One visitor brought his own telescope to get help with setup and operation.
