I'm glad many others in the east had such a fine show. I am again volunteering to place a bulk order for Guy Ottewell's Astronomical Calendar. As the procedure of collecting the money up front worked quite well last year, we will repeat that method. If we have fewer than 8 orders, I reserve the right to withdraw from service and refund your money, but I may not do that if we have close to 8 orders. If we have considerably more than 8 orders, I will refund according to the final cost.
Admission is free.
The Observatory is on the roof of the Maryland Science Center. On Thursdays, enter on the southern side of the building the side that faces Key Highway. The Observatory is open to the outdoors, so please dress appropriately. Safely look at the Sun and its features such as sunspots and prominences through a special set of filters on our telescope. Admission is included with Science Center admission.
