Star Party & Perseids Report

This weekend's Utah Skies Star Party was awesome. Skies were clear and steady all night long. We probably had around 75 people show up to do some observing. Among other things, we hit Venus & Jupiter, The Ring Nebula, The Veil Nebula, The Hercules Star Cluster and a bunch of stuff in Sagittarius & Scorpius. All in all, it was way cool!
As the night progressed, we saw a bunch of Perseid Meteors as well. The most spectacular of which (of course, I missed that one) crossed an estimated 90* of sky.
