EAS UPDATE FOR MEMBERS

Quick update on a couple of things…

* Be sure to look west after dark for the next couple of weeks, to see Jupiter (left) and Venus (right) coming together in the twilight. Very pretty!

* Any clear night from now until the end of July, keep an eye on the northern sky after midnight for a display of NLC, or “noctilucent clouds”.

The first NLC have been spotted by monitoring satellites, so the first naked eye display could occur any night now, tho it’s more likely going to be early June before we see anything. What are NLC? Full details here…

* Due to lack of interest (only two people replied to the emails) there will be no “EAS Camping Weekend”. Stella and I will probably head off somewhere anyway, and when we get somewhere booked we’ll let anyone interested in joining us there for an *informal* event know.

Cheers,

Stu
