Re: HRPO Evening Sky Viewing, 2021
HRPO will be open tonight from 4:45pm to 6:45pm for the fall Edge of Night twilight viewing session. Details are in the "Observed Passes of Satellites, Rocket Bodies (etc.) in 2021" thread. This will be the last Edge of Night of the year and we are no longer on Fake Time. Enjoy it!
