Hi everyone, I thought you'd enjoy this feature about observing
Saturn, the moon and the Beehive cluster. There's a nice pairing of
the cluster and Saturn from now through June, with a nearly full
moon above, next to and below Saturn.
Over the past weekend, we showed this starry view, along with Saturn
and the moon, to about 500 people through 6 telescopes in Monrovia.
We all had a great time, despite partial clouds.
