Sorry about that. None of us have special cloud-piercing filters on our telescopes! Stay tuned for June! Jane

Mojo and I are in Lompoc, CA 11 miles from Vandenberg Air Force Base.
If will be foggy here, but our plan is to drive up a grade to gain about 500 feet of elevation and be (hopefully) out of the fog.
For those at home, look to the South. The Atlas V will arc pretty high, and should be visible in a clear sky.
You'll need to check to see if the launch is on time, or within the 2 hour window. This is our recommend site for status and flight details, plus excellent commentary.

You'll need to set your alarm, check flight status, be looking south. Good luck, I'll post our success or not in about 8 hours.
You can't miss seeing the moon between red Mars and golden Saturn in the southern sky, and with luck and dark skies, maybe an ETA Aquarid meteor at the same time!! Jane
