Observatory night
A total of 25 guests enjoyed clear skies on March 30 and viewed Jupiter, the Orion Nebula and one of the open clusters in Auriga during our two hour observing session. In the field, Bob Horton brought his homemade 4.25" reflector and Conrad had first light with his new Astro-Tech 106mm refractor.
