I did Chuck. I find it very fascination ever since Dave Bennett showed me a 22 - 24 hour old young crescent last summer at Wolf Creek. I went out tonight in my back yard and tried to find M77. I couldn't even find Cetus through the serous clouds. I am really of to a good start here. I tried to follow from Aldebaran down the line to Cetus with the 15X70s. It sure looks different than on my sky charts. I need a lot more practice. I have the Orion set up right now, but I am trying to get an idea where to look with the binos first. I guess I better go try again as the clouds move around. Jim Chuck Hards <chuckhards@yahoo.com> wrote: Thanks for the forecast, Jim. BTW, did you catch the recent articles in S&T on observing young crescent moons? C. --- Jim Gibson wrote:
Chuck I check with our MET folks to see if there were any chages and they said no. This thing that is passing through now will be short lived. They assured me that it will be clear and worm - hot for St. George. There could be some high serous clouds in a few places but they should dissapate after dark. Jim
