Looks like it might be clear tonight, and the ISS is predicted to be *really* bright tonight, so ... Hi all, An update on seeing the International Space...

Mark your calendars ... I understand the 2005 Fall session of the East Coast Star Party will be 28 - 29 October (Coinjock, NC)....
Stargazers, Hazy skies cleared up a little as the night progressed. Welcome Ocella and Oscar. It was nice to meet you. I hope to see you at the Planetarium on...
Bird..you wrote this: Here is an audio mp3 file from Universe Today for the rest of us that can't run Windoz Media non-Player: My strange question would be why...
Hey Dan, I work and play on Macs, preferably. I unfortunately spend quite a bit of time on a Dell, too. Windoz Media non-Player has only had one version,...
Hey Troy, I run Panther and Safari, too, but have had no luck. It has to do with the type of file saved in WMP. I've never been successful. I also have MacOS...
Bird, I forgot to mention ... you correctly stated that the impact will occur after the comet has set. However, if you are able to listen to the report, the...
Hey Troy, I wasn't able to hear the WMP audio. I do plan on going out tonight and observing Temple-1 near Spica and tomorrow night to see if I can observe a...
Stargazers, I feel inspired to update orbital elements for Temple-1 on my Autostar. I went to the Weasner site and found a new Mac utility to update the ...
I'm interested in going out tonight--I'd prefer something closer to NNVA than College Creek, though! Let me know your plans. Tom Epps (757)596-5880 P.S. I...
Bird, Tom, I'm not so sure how good the transparency will be, but please post what you decide. I live between Toano & Barhamsville, so I have no interest in...
Bird, Tom, Troy and anyone else interested. We're wondering if anyone has any solid plans on going out tonight (the 3rd) and/or tomorrow night. And if so,...
P.S. Just talked to Dottie and she reminded us NN Park is always an option - all we have to do is call! Our question at this point is will it be worth it...
Mark; I work obscene hours (mostly evening and mid-shifts) most days and so have a skewed perspective...for me, ANY evening in which I can do starlight is...
Dottie called the rangers at NN Park and they said, "C'mon out!" So we are! We plan on being there around 8:15-ish or so. Anyone interested, PLEASE come out! ...
Hey Mark, Judy just gave me permission to c'mon out. I'll pack up, do the cross-town traffic thing and be there around 8:30 p.m. Thanks guys for doing this. ...
Hey Guys, I can't make it out tonight, but if you want a bit darker skies and a pot of coffee, come on by my observatory. All welcome. I will be out tonight...
Hey Richard, Sorry that we missed your message. I just got back in from Newport News Park at 1:30 a.m. We had a great time, but weren't able to find Temple-1....
At a moment's notice Bird, Dottie, Diane and I all packed up and headed out to NN Park to hunt for Comet Temple 1. And wow, what a night! Nearly perfect skies...
Cometgazers, Here is the NASA TV link for viewing on the web. They've been running the impact images: http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/index.html NASA TV...
Thanks for those great links, Bird. We (Diane and I) also stayed up until about 2:30am watching the live stream. CNN also spent about 15 or 20 minutes or so on...
Mark, I've read two articles/posting, both from the Western U.S. (Idaho & California). As of last night - after impact, the comet had NOT brightened. Before...
Thanks for the info, Troy. I did some hunting around and I can't find too much information on current observations beyond last night when we were out. We're...
Dottie, Diane & Mark, I had a great time at NNP last night. Thanks for welcoming me - and making me feel at home. I look forward to observing with you in the...
