Woo hoo
The day has dawned bright and clear and not a cloud in sight. Expected max of 35 degrees today.
The 12" dob and 5" Tak will be set up tonight after dinner and then the long wait will begin.
Both my boys (7 & 8) have asked me to wake them up to see it; my wife said no way (for both them and her!!). I reckon i'll sneak into their room at about 0200hrs and see if they are keen (shhh boys, don't tell mummy
).
I've only seen one asteroid before and that was Vesta about 14 years or so ago. This once-in-a-lifetime event should be a lot more exciting.
Good luck everybody.
