ASSNE Whatzup Challenge - July 2008

Unread post by BobSikes »

Sorry about last month folks. Work got the best of me, so no discussion topics :oops: To avoid future calamity, I'm posting the topics before the meeting. An early bird special.

Three challenges this month:
Going, Going Gone! – Catch the Leo triplet before it sinks into the west until next year.

At the Peak -- Jupiter and the Great Red Spot. A super observing object to do with kids. Check out those moons, even with binoculars. Watch them change positions each night. And for a scope challenge, who will be first to see the Great Red Spot.

Coming Attractions – Here comes M31 – Andromeda Galaxy

See the individual topics for details and to post your observations. You can also view the whole challenge here – - complete with observing tips.
