I had a really great time with fellow NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassador and Raleigh Astronomy member Doug Lively in supporting Moon Zoom, a virtual observing session of the Moon on Monday evening as part of Astronomy Days at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Science @naturalsciences. Make sure to check all the great programming for the week on the museum’s web site.
Now for those of you in the Raleigh area, you may ask how I was able to observe the Moon Monday evening given the 100% cloud cover and rain? I lucky enough to have access to latest, cutting edge, narrow band cloud filters for my telescope…..? Just kidding, I captured video of Luna on Saturday night, knowing the next several days would be complete washouts. Here is a link to the recorded Moon Zoom, enjoy!
Clear and Steady Skies!
