Cancelled tonight! The winds, clouds and cold temperatures are too much for telescope views.

Sunset at 4:35 pm. The Moon rises 2 hours after sunset and is nearly full. Other objects include the fabulous Orion Nebula, the Double Cluster in Perseus, the beautiful double star Gamma Andromedae, the Beehive star cluster in Cancer, and the Pleiades star cluster in Taurus. All make for interesting objects to observe. The planet Mars will appear early in the evening after 6:00 pm. Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune will be easily seen through a telescope, being much closer than usual.
