My images of Comet Tuttle show it as emeral green. Has anyone noticed a color? I haven't observed it in dark skies since the comet has brightenend. I may go to...
Kent, Happy New Year. I have seen various posts by several people on different sites commenting on and showing photos of the green color: cyanogen? Greg...
Had a quick hour and a half session tonight with my 10". The wind chill was a little much for my ears and fingers, had to come in early. It was another great...
I am considering going to Tuckahoe tomorrow. It will be "cool"...., Projected above transparency for a short evening: sunset or a bit later to 9pm perhaps. ...
Congrads to C.J. for locating NGC 1, a very illusive object indeed. The last time I looked at it was at the 2003 East Coast Star Party. A very long time ago I...
Bill Weir asked me the same question. I guess I was so excited to find NGC 1, I didn't even try for NGC 2 and NGC 16. I'll be revisiting that area anyway my...
Not observing tonight because it's 19.5F? Come on, C.J., I'm disappointed. I'm going observing. If I can do it at my age you better get your butt out there and...
"There are some bay effect clouds trying to creep onto the edge of the VA & NC coast and that may kill my attempt." Kent, this sounds like someone is looking...

Do you mean NGC? I'm not staying up late enough to look at M2 and M16! haha! There's to many passing clouds right now and very high winds to be motivated...
Personally, I think Comet 17P/Holmes has been one of the most spectacular astronomical event in decades, yet it gets little accolades, even from amateur...
How right you are Kent. Yesterday night (Thursday), the sky was excellent at Tuckahoe (21.2 mag/squared arc sec)!. Sure you needed the right clothing but then,...
I looked at NGC 1, 2 and 16 last night from Coinjock (21.13 magnitude per square arm/min. I was quite pleased to see NGC 1 and 16 in my 100mm f/8 refractor....
Oh man! Look at those stars! You've taken the most spectacular images of Holmes I've ever seen online. This one tops them all! So what about Comet Lovas, Can't...
We have not one, not two, not three but four comets easily visible. Comet 17P/Holmes, of course, tops them all. Telescopically, it's not too easy now that it's...
Dear Sir/madame I should like to join the Delmarvastarer group in order to swap information of up and coming events happening in space. I am based in East...
Just a reminder that the January meeting of the Delmarva Stargazers is tomorrow night (Tues 1/8) at the Mallard Lodge. Meeting starts at 7PM Since it's gonna...
Hi Tony, I'm not sure if anyone has contacted you yet, but anyone can join our Yahoo group. It is not a closed yahoo group like some others. So, just join the...
Tomorrow Wednesday looks very good for Tuckahoe. The CSC is very good. Temperature around 44, relative humidity around 65%. Sunset: 5:04pm Moon set: 6:19pm,...
I would definately be there, but it's always clear on a night when I have either bible study or a youth group event at my church. I'll setup here and observed...
Tony, If you want to be a member and take advantage of using Tuckahoe State Park as dark skies observing sit (open to members of Delmarvastargazers only),...
Hi Guys I guess you didn't see Tony is from the UK. I sent him a response telling him a little about who, what and where we are. I also explained he was free...
The company Orion Telescopes & Binoculars never cease to amaze me for the quality of what is offered. Of all my telescopes I honestly think I get more...
... Kent, I can't find my Orion catalog to check out a question. If I were to buy a new one in two or three months, would the Crayford focuser come with it,...
Steve, According to the website (www.telescope.com), the 8", 10", and 12" Intelliscopes now come with the 2" crayford standard. I didn't check whether the...
