Patrick, The LCROSS planners are talking 3 or 4 in the morning for Utah. I'll be up but probably looking for a high-speed internet connection to NASA TV. But things change (the target, the impact date, the launch date) with the LCROSS mission planners - almost weekly - and the target and final impact time will not be set until 30 days before impact. (This is intentional - the LCROOS team is going to leverage of the latest imagery and ground-penetrating radar readings from LRO before selecting a final LCROSS impact site.) So, for me its premature to start planning to view it. On the other hand, four or five days after launch, the LCROSS-Centaur satellite will be doing its gravity assist swing-by the Moon before entering the three or four month cruise orbit phase. Rumor has it that the LCROSS team is planning an internet broadcast of the satellite's on-board camera feed as it swings by 80km above the surface. Keep an eye out for that. Then there will be public-amateur LCROSS sponsored competion to see who can image the LCROSS-Centaur booster combination in Earth-lunar orbit at 500,000km. That will be ongoing for three months. That is probably the best observing op to organize a local event around - considering SLAS has the big-eye 1 meter Grim to work with. The JSA's Kayuga satellite is set to impact near southern crater Gill on June 10th but is scheduled to impact at around 18:30UT - night-time over Japan - daytime here. - Clear Skies - Kurt
