Greetings fellow astrophiles, The SAS is hosting a group at Darling Hill tonight and are opening the grounds to a general Public Viewing Session. The skies look far more promising tonight than last night and several board and scope-owning members have already planned on attending. The grounds should be open by 8:00 p.m. for those interested in setting up early and exploring the Observatory Grounds. We hope you can join us!
