NO STAR PARTY TONIGHT
The verdict is in: There will be no star party, no flashmob tonight (Saturday, January 26, 2019). The handful of astronomers who responded to this afternoon’s inquiry have said that, in honor of the cold and ice, they shall be staying home. But, because tomorrow is always better, CMAS also announces…
STAR PARTY AT DRA NEXT SATURDAY
Join CMAS, and special guest Punxsutawney Phil, for the Great Groundhog’s Day Star Watch at the Damariscotta River Association’s Great Salt Bay Farm. On February 2nd of each year, Punxsutawney Phil peers into the eyepiece. If he can not see the faint outlines of the Veil Nebula, there will be six more weeks of winter. Time might be 6:00pm, or might be a bit later, to allow time to meet earlier at Sarah’s Cafe in Wiscasset for dinner prior to the star party. Let us know your intentions and preferences.
Great Salt Bay Farm, 110 Belvedere Road, Damariscotta ME 04543
Sarah’s Cafe, 45 Water St, Wiscasset, ME 04578
