IISAC 2007 Moon

[Sausageman (Mike Boggan)]

The Moon will rise at around 2pm on the 27th January.
It will be about a half Moon.
I have advance my Starry night program to the IISAC date of Sat 27th Jan 2007.
It is going to interfere with viewing the night sky some what.
It wont set until around 11pm.

It will surely interfere with astrophotographs.

A new moon and a star party - what a coincidence!

[Sausageman (Mike Boggan)]

Whoops,
How did I get that far out

I just ran the program again, this time with the right date.
Saturn in the evening, Jupiter and Mars before dawn, every other Planet rises in daylight.
Yeah, the moon rises beside the Sun which should be good for the Radio Astronomy talk and demo.
Looks like a deep sky event then. You Beauty.
I will get to watch One Ponders(Paul) and Striker(Tony) taking awesome photo's again and learn more about Astrophotography.

I must get on to Bintel and get some more EP's.
