Dark Site hot beverage bar to open

It gets cold outside observing. Warm up with a cup of coffe, hot chocolate, or tea at the Dark Site in front of the Dob shed. I’ll open up the hot beverage bar on third quarter and new moon Saturday nights through March. That’s 2/15, 2/22, 3/14, and 3/21. During third quarter, the moon does not rise until after midnight. During new moon, we don’t see the moon at all during the night time hours. So review the light rules, pick out your spot on the field, and when it’s cold, share some conversation over a hot brew at the Dob shed. —Rene Gedaly, membership@astronomyhouston.org
