Total lunar eclipse. The biggest line yet at the scope.
First clear night of the semester. The Ring Nebula (just barely), Andromeda Galaxy, Double Cluster.
Transit of Venus observed with the Amateur Astronomers Association of NY
in Carl Schurz Park.
Jupiter and Saturn, hazy otherwise.
Jupiter, Saturn, and the Moon.
Jupiter, Saturn, and the Moon. We are graced by the presence of Jeff
Hakner.
Sunspots.
Orion Nebula, Pleiadies, Mars.
Lunar eclipse! Some new faces on the roof. Also took a break from the moon
with the Pleiadies/Seven Sisters.
Solar viewing. Skies ok but the sun's disk is featureless. Presumably
the storms have rotated out of view.
Solar viewing. Sun is hidden by a clouds; for several minutes the cloud
coverage thinned out, allowing a glimpse of extraordinarily
large sunspots.
Finally! The first clear night for the club. Mars, the Pleiadies/Seven
Sisters, the
Double Cluster, Alberio (double star), and the Orion Nebula. Failed to
locate the Ring Nebula, maybe washed out in the haze at the horizon.
