DRA Star Party — Weekend of Saturday, April 26, 2014

Looking forward to seeing everyone at our star party at The Damariscotta River Association’s Land Trust this weekend, if the gods of the clouds finally so allow. Typically, winter has been a prized season for us, with the cold temperatures more than offset by ideal seeing conditions, but this winter has been relentless in defying the will of astronomers. We have not met since December 7th!

Per usual, a party will be scheduled only for a night that will be attended, so please respond to the Doodle poll. We hope to meet on Saturday, April 26, 2014, at 9:00pm, but we’ll move that ahead to Friday or delay it until Sunday if the weather so requires.

Please note the poll’s special questions for DRA star parties: Will you bring a telescope or an outdoor rated, heavy-duty extension cord? Neither is required, but the count helps in planning. Unlike at our other venues, there are no telescopes stored at DRA, and the electricity is several hundred feet from the viewing area.

It will be great to see everyone again.
