Fools’ Observing
We finally got a clear night for NSAS observing (this is not an April Fools joke)!
I arrived at the Golf Club a bit late because of bad traffic, but I was still the first one there.
A bit later, a film crew arrived and interviewed me for a documentary about amateur astronomers…

There were still only three telescopes, but this was enough for a good evening. One problem was that the sky was a bit ‘soupy’ and we had difficulty seeing some of the fainter objects.

One of my ealiest YouTube videos, which is more than three years old, has become popular enough for YouTube to think they can make money from it. I received this email from YouTube…

The video…
