Weather permitting, we'll be out with telescopes in Monrovia next
Saturday the 28th. Starting at about 6 p.m. for 2 -2.5 hours....
The weather scared us out of taking the 3 hour drive to Amboy Crater
tonight. We'll post observing intents to go there on this list in case
any of you would like to join us. Amboy Crater is BLM land, there really
isn't a place to camp on the lava, but there is a huge parking lot and
pit toilets. So people with telescopes often just observe all night and
pack up in the morning. It's ok to leave before dawn by parking away
from the telescopes - on the way out of the parking lot facing out, and
careful use of car lights. We're a friendly bunch.
There are closer places to observe but none with 360 degree views clear
down to the horizon or located with the darkest skies. Amboy is the
closest place with a "black" pin on this map:

also go to Glacier Point in Yosemite once a year - if anyone wants to
combine star gazing with a Yosemite trip. More about that when we find
out our date this year. But anyone can head up to Glacier point any
non-full-moon weekend Jul through Labor Day and enjoy looks free looks
through dozens of telescopes set up by sponsoring astronomy clubs
And as a reminder our twice a year Mojave National Preserve Star parties
will be on Saturday June 13th 2015 and Saturday October 17th 2015. The
Black Canyon Group (near Hole in the Wall campground and the visitor
center) will be available Friday night as well. Bring a pot luck item
to share if you want to. After we know how many people are bringing
telescopes, we can let you know if there is room for more - the
telescope platform is rather small - with room for half a dozen scopes
for the public star party.

Look west just as soon as it gets dark tonight (Friday) and tomorrow
night too and see a pretty pairing of Mars and Venus! They are closer
than they've been in half a dozen years. Tonight you'll see the slender
crescent moon just below the pair, and tomorrow night the moon will be a
little bigger crescent above the planets.
Here's a little blurb I wrote about along with this months What's Up
video. http://solarsystem.nasa.gov/news/whatsup-archive.cfm
Also, we have selected dates for both the spring and fall Mojave
National Preserve star parties!
The Spring MNP Star Party will be Saturday June 13th 2015 and the Fall
MNP Star Party will be Saturday October 17th 2015. If you haven't joined
us, sometimes lead time will help with you planning. This is a dark sky,
free group campsite in the middle of the Mojave National Preserve (for a
limited number of tents, and there is a RSVP but it is free) a communal
pot luck, some brief words from the Mojave National Preserve
Conservancy, the Rangers, and ahem, me. Then telescopes!
It won't get dark in June until about 9 p.m, but we couldn't make any
dates fit all of our schedules when the campsite was available until
June. That's why we went ahead and selected the fall date ahead of
time. More on that later. For now, get outside and look up, if it is
clear!
Also, three of us may be going to Amboy Crater for dark sky observing
tomorrow. Shoot me an email if you plan to join us - we would leave
around noon- 1 p.m. from Monrovia to set up before dark. There are some
dark sky observing rules about lights, so let me know if you want to
join us, and I'll fill you in.

Hi,
I`m sure you are well aware that there`s no shortage of information on the
internet, especially when it comes to Hypothyroidism.
The good news is that all of this information helps to bring much needed
awareness to Hypothyroidism and the DEVASTATING effects it can have on your
life.
But what if I told you that 95% of hypothyroidism sufferers, like yourself,
are using treatment options that are actually causing more harm than
good… making you more hypothyroid every day?
Why?
Because they are based entirely on misinformation instead of sound and
scientific research.
The real question is… How can you protect yourself from this
misinformation and from becoming just another one of these 95% of sufferers
who are doing it all wrong?
Well, I just found this great hypothyroidism resource which will really
help clear up the confusion for you. The following video I`m about to share
with you contains a lot of great information on how to naturally overcome
hypothyroidism by stopping it directly at the source.
The best part is that it`s actually based on scientific research…
Scientific research that I will bet that you have never even seen before.
Click here to watch it:

I know this will open your eyes as much as it did mine.
