First Light Tonight (sort of)


Tonight, I'll be celebrating a sort of "First Light" event. First light for the ObDob at its new home... The Two Mile Canyon Observatory. Skies are forecast to be clear and fairly steady... with only the tiniest of moons setting shortly after sunset.
No doubt, we'll be taking a good look at the planet Mars as the night progresses. I'll be inviting a few neighbors over to start indoctrinating them on the ways of the sky... and the affects of outdoor lights on the sky. I'm hoping to win them over to the "dark side".
I'm also looking forward to testing out my new skies... and... with plenty of fall deep sky objects overhead... there'll be no shortage of observing targets.
