A Crisp Club night at Snake Valley

Last night was our SVAA June Club night, and we had Scott (Tannehill) and Brian (Louwai) both new to Melbourne come up to join us for a great nights observing.

Thanks for coming along guys.

The Transparency was around 9/10 and the seeing was 8-9/10. Fantastic!!!!!

While Scott and Brian indulged in the Dark sky the rest of us did the sky tour of the Milky Way, (a few Globs, Carina, Sthn Pliaedes, Lagoon, Trifid, etc)

It was a great night

But it was COLD!
And it was Hair Dryers at 40 paces!!!
Anything within reach of the power leads got Hair Dryered

1. The ice building up on the grass and finderscope (fog showing up in the flash)
2. Scott attacks his Iced scope with his deadly Haid Dryer
3. Scott and Eric attack anything in site with their Hair Dryers
4. Look out Daniel, Eric has found something of yours that frozen!!!
