Well not only go but G O N E!!
We had about 60 people all up even though the skies were un-welcoming with thick cloud. Occasionally the cloud broke and we were able to train our scopes on the Moon and on Jupiter but sadly that is all we saw.
As people arrived they were greeted with a short Stellarium presentation including sound track which pointed out a few things that would be visible tonight.
Most were understanding of the conditions but there were still plenty of wows! Thanks to wavytone, mental4astro, en1gma for setting up scopes. It was also nice to meet morls who gathered lots of valuable information on scopes.
