By the 25th, moonrise is at 11:30pm. On Friday morning (for Thursday night observing), it rises at about 12:30am. Sunset is at about 8:45pm. Useable twilight (??) maybe 9:30pm. So you've got a good 2 1/2 to three hours of dark sky with some wrap-up lunar viewing. - Canopus56 (Kurt) http://www.sunrisesunset.com/custom_srss_calendar.asp --- Joe Bauman <bau@desnews.com> wrote:
