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.

Moon and Jupiter highlight 2013 season opener
It was nice to be back to Seagrave after the observatory had been snowed in for so long. We had clear skies and a bright waxing gibbous moon lighting up the grounds.
