Thompson Park 2023-03-24
Quote from ktran on March 23, 2023, 3:58 pmHi folks!
If the forecast holds up, I'll be heading to Thompson Park tomorrow night 2023-03-24 to image a galaxy or two, and get some last-minute visual on the Westering Winter Targets.
A waxing crescent moon will also be tantalisingly close to Uranus, according to Stellarium, and the thin crescent will mean that we have a fighting chance of actually catching a glimpse of 天王星.
I'll be coming from the Plateau, so there'll be much traffic to fight through, but I hope to be there before it gets dark. If the forecast goes sour tomorrow, then I'll change the topic to NOGO.
