    Thumbs up Hey all you early birds.......

    Just in case you didn't know.......Keep your eyes open in the wee hours of the morning, just before the dawn and you will get a chance to see the Leonids Meteor Shower.

    For Tampa it's looking like the best viewing window is between 4:00AM (Moonset) and 5:32AM (Astronomical Twilight). Unfortunately there's supposed to be fog with about 70% sky cover from 4:00AM to 7:00AM.

    I had planned on getting up and watching it this morning but just couldn't get out of bed. Oh well, there will be another one on Dec. 13th (Geminids).


    Capt'n, I hope you got some pictures to share with the class.

    Due to the forecasted fog/sky cover I slept through it. Maybe I'll catch the next one.
