Hello astronomy fans! Tomorrow looks pretty good until midnite.
Does anyone want to go to Eagle Bluff? I would love to go if we've got some troops, but I REALLY want to see the Mercury/Mars conjuntion. As far as conjuntions go, it is a very rare event. Remember that Copernicus lamented on his deathbed that he had never seen the planet Mercury.
If we do go to EB, I'm going to set up shop at the last big corner turning east. After the conjunction it's the parking lot.
Any thoughts?
