cosmic dave Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 The lyrids meteor shower peak is on the same night as our next official meeting at gib point. Let's hope for some clear skies and don't forget your sun lounger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldfruit Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I was thinking about this today Dave, went to town at lunch and saw a nice lounger and thought how well that would do for a meteor watch at Gibraltar Point. Fingers crossed it stays clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+RonC Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) Ahh, you two beat me to it!! Just noticed the dates in April's 'Sky at Night' mag!! No moon, should be good if the cloud holds off!! Obsy opened now, another good look at M81 and M82 then into Virgo for some galaxies! Looking forward to Sat night!

oldfruit Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Had noticed, but still be good to nip over and have a cuppa if the offer is still open despite the weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbird Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Yes, your still welcome to come over, some of the North Lincs lads have dropped out but I'm leaving it open to those who want to can still come. We might be lucky and get a break. I'm very disappointed with the forecast but what can you do ? A date has to be set and we take our chances.
