The Night Sky

Last night, McKenzie and I made our first visit to the George Observatory in Brazos Bend State Park. The sky is really amazing out there, you can see the 'milky way'.

We viewed:
M15


M8

Jupiter

Ring Nebula

M22


We didn't take any of those pics, I just found repesentative ones from the internet. On my next visit I'll take my scope and hope to get some images!

This tuesday night I do a presentation on the solar system on behalf of my Astronomy Clubs outreach program to a group of scouts in Magnolia!
