Tom and Jennifer,

Thanks for putting this together. I know it must have been a lot of work but it 
was worth it. Very entertaining and educational evening all around. I 
thoroughly enjoyed it.

Bernard

DO NOT GO TO SAC'S REGULAR MEETING PLACE AT GRAND CANYON UNIVERSITY--WE
WON'T BE THERE.

The Science in Amateur Astronomer Astro-images

Friday, April 11, 2014, 7:30, at Arizona State University, Tempe

The April SAC meeting will be held at the new Marston Exploration Theater in
the Interdisciplinary Science and Technology BLDG. IV (ISTB4) ASU Tempe. Dr.
Paul Scowen a renown astrophysicist and co-creator of the iconic "Pillars of
Creation" photo from the HST (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillars_of_creation ), will analyze and explain
the physics in images taken by our own local group of astroimagers . These
images will be projected onto a 30' x 16' screen by real state of the art
machines.

In addition to these 18 images, there will be a medley of all submitted
images set to music, and Ric Alling, Theater Manager will demonstrate the
capabilities of the theater.  You will want to arrive at the magic hour of 7
o'clock which is the time after which you can park for free. This will give
you a little time to check out the exhibits and the Meteorites before the
meeting starts at 7:30. You can arrive earlier but free parking will get
tricky.

Here is a link to the map:
http://www.asu.edu/map/interactive/?campus=tempe&building=ISTB4

Here is a link to driving directions:
http://sese.asu.edu/sites/default/files/file/driving-directions.pdf (coming 
from E. Valley directions should read Turn Left onto Rural...)

We will meet in the ISTB4 Building which is actually on 781 E Terrace Road,
Tempe, AZ 85287, however, you will want to park at the Rural Road parking
structure and you will want to use the Rural Road Entrance after 7:00 p.m.
One way to get there is to take Highway 60 to Rural Rd./North on Rural for
2.5 miles, just north of Apache Blvd. is the Rural Road Parking garage,
enter the garage from Rural Road. If you enter the garage from Terrace Rd.,
you will pay $3 an hour to park. The ISTB4 building is next to the garage on
the West side. There are plenty of seats (238) to accommodate everyone and
this is a meeting you will not want to miss.

The exhibits will be open during break as well.

We plan to have SAC's standard after meeting meeting at the IHOP on 225 E.
Apache, Tempe 85281--it's located in-between Mill and Rural on the S. side
of Apache--look for a pink hotel.

Any questions?
Contact me offline.
