New years eve possible aurora in the northern tier, hope for clear skies
Last night at the local astronomy club,I listened to a presentation by a PhD scientist about her work with the JWST researching sequential shells around WR140, a binary star system 5600 light years away where one star is pulling gas and carbon dust from the other and making these amazing structures like 3D ripples in a pond.

Absolutely fascinating stuff; we live in an amazing age of high technology.
That's pretty cool!yes we do, i used to donate my time at the local Planetirum, some of us would also bring our telescopes out, so that on looker can look out of them. When i could i also used to give out moon diffusers, so that way even the cheapest telescope you could observe the moon at least....
