Anybody going to Tuckahoe tonight. I am thinking about it. Sunset: 6:30pm; Moon rise: 11pm; Observation slot: 8:00 to 11pm. Clear skies predicted on Clear...
Jean-Paul -- Instead of T-hoe, why don't you come to the meeting tonight and teach me how to run AstroPlanner software? That's kind of one of the themes to be...

Jean-Paul, Sorry to hear you won't give a stargazer meeting a try. I used to live in Bowie Maryland and traveled to meetings monthly for the stargazers...

At this url is an interesting picture. It is Astronomy Picture of the Day for October 13, 2004. Right after 911 I was at the Delmarva Stargazers star party in...
James do you have anything going up in the northern part of the state - like a one night star party - if not would you be able/willing to do one for some...

I quoted some text in the photo caption. Should this quote read "at that distance, the picture spans only about 20 arc seconds" or some such thing? Surely, the...

The event on the 16th is at Brandywine Creek State Park and I will not be attending. The Bear Library event is on Wednesday October 27th NOT the 15th. Sorry...
