*Am establishing a thread for events as listed in the Topic Description (and more). Currently have nothing to "report." That'll change, of course. wink.gif

Please post upcoming events and times, geographical locations (including major cities) favored for said event, etc.

I'm surprised no one mentioned the Pleiades occultation this past Saturday night. In between the occasional clouds, I had a lovely view of Maia and Alcyone disappearing. Maia was so close to the north edge of the moon that I thought at first it was going to be a graze (from the Washington DC area).
