Here are my favorite objects, obviously they all aren’t up all the time:
Albireo
Orion Nebula
Double Cluster
M13
M51
All the great objects in Sagittarius. My new favorite one near there is the M24
star cloud, which is a hole in the dusk clouds with thousands of stars not in a
cluster – a window to the center of the Milky Way.
M57

A quick question for those that bring their scopes out to show the public the
night skies. Other than the obvious Sun, Moon, and planets what are the deep
sky objects that you like to show throughout the year.

I have this - Revelation Imager - as well, but have never used it.
This is good stuff to ask, so as long as we have one scope willing to do this
event, Weather Permitting of course,
I will send this email to all the PAS Members, for which, I hope we can get
input on how to make this work,
with a few scopes showing objects and on the screen at the same time.
Live feed.
Changing this to everyone in PAS who is on the PAS List serv.
Let's continue this discussion.
Wishing everyone a super day!
Terri, Event Manager
If anyone has suggestions for Pete, please, send it back through the list serv
so we can help each other make this event happen successfully.

I'm trying to figure out how I might do this. I have the Revelation Imager,
which has a seven inch screen. The question is how to project that to Zoom or
Google Meet. I don't think it's capable of being connected directly to a PC.
Any thoughts?

Good and Awesome Morning to all of you,
Sept 26, which is my bday, is also International Observe the Moon night. I am
interested in setting up an event that we do Virtual, with one or more
telescopes doing remote viewing, such as be able to show what's being shown in
your telescope through virtual means, Zoom or Google Meet, to the public, of
the Moon and other objects available on Sept 26th.
To set this up, I would like to know who can do it, which means we are using:
Zoom or Google Meet, and who wants to help out, such as fielding questions, or
making a list of who requests what objects, other than the Moon to be seen. I'm
guessing, based on what I have seen Lowell Observatory do for their Interactive
Star Gazing nights, that we need a minimum of 1 telescope with this capability,
1 person to field questions from the chat room, and another to collect a list
of objects from the chat room. Actually, a couple of us can field questions
from the attendees.
Can we make this happen? And who wants to help out. And for this, the minimum
is one PAS Member with the ability to provide the views through their telescope.
Let me know your thoughts, and I will get this event set up.
Just for your knowledge, PAS has tried to be involved with these events every
year. And if we are involved, we will be listed on the official IOMN site which
gets exposure to PAS. So, I think it would be good for the club to offer this
experience on a date that the world is wanting to see the Moon and more.
Send me your thoughts and ideas and tell me if you are free to assist on this
night, and what part would you like to help with. Thanks so much!
Terri, Event Manager
Mark - are you able to do this event?
I figure we can do the event for 1 hour, or 1.5 hours, and then call it a night.
Here's the data on this night:
Sunset about 6:15pm
Moon is lit 79% and is visible at 6:15pm
Jupiter is visible 6:30pm
Saturn is visible 6:40pm
Dark is about 7:45pm
Mars rises 7:30pm
We could start about 7pm which would mean
we might get to see the Moon, Jupitre, Saturn and Mars
on this night, if we do the event to 8:30pm.
That's my suggestion but the astronomer doing the event will have the final say
on what time to start and end.
Feed back is requested.
Let me know if I'm setting this up and who is hosting the event, meaning
setting up the link for everyone to access. The host should also MUTE everyone
except the main presenter. And all questions and requests for objects will be
through Chat. This is how Lowell does it and it works well.
Wishing everyone a super day.
I would suggest we get this set up sooner than later so that advertising of it
can be done with time to draw a huge crowd.
Terri, Event Manager
