Hi FAS folks:
The forecast for tomorrow night looks great for our public observation at Sci-Works. In addition to a nice view of the moon, we have Jupiter in excellent viewing position. Also, Mars rises at 7:20 PM, near to its closest approach to Earth in several years. So bring your planetary eyepieces and filters for what looks like a wonderful night for planets.
Sunset: 7:52 PM
Astronomical twilight: 9:20 PM
Moon at 90%
