Saturn Viewing Saturday (and Friday, too)

Sorry for the late announcement - we've been busy..... The forecast for Friday and Saturday nights is mostly clear. That means the Old Town Sidewalk Astronomers will be setting up telescopes for public views of Saturn (and the moon) both nights. Venus will also be a beautiful sight, in the west, no telescopes needed. The same locations as every month - (weather will be clear and cold) Friday Night Feb 23, 6:30 -9:30 p.m. Colorado Blvd somewhere between Fair Oaks and Pasadena Avenues depending on parking. 2 telescopes, long lines (there is no room for more telescopes, and we pick them up and move them to get out of the trees and lights. Saturday Night Feb 24, 6:30 9:30, or later if there is a big crowd) Library Park, corner of Myrtle and Lime Streets, Monrovia. Our usual group of astronomers bring 4 to 8 telescopes usually, less crowded, lots of free parking. :-) Website: http://www.otastro.org/ You can always check the weather in the top right of the page.
