Hey Jeff, you gave it a good try. You can't do anything more than that. 🙂
I gave astronomy a super good outreach event by going to my great nieces wedding tonight. I had my little Vixen out for some solar observing right at sunset. (I probably had a dozen people look at that), but when I put it on Saturn, I had over a hundred people look at that.
I was steady busy from 9:30 to 12:30. It was crazy busy. "Wow" "This is totally AWESOME" "No way, this can't be real" "Can you put your hand in front of the scope so I know that this is really Saturn and not a picture?" ???
I didn't finish the Herschel 400 tonight, but this outreach event was pretty cool. 🙂
