🌧️ We expect clouds, rain, and a chance of thunder this evening (3/11). Unfortunately the WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party is cancelled tonight. We'll try again next week! was-ct.org
🌥️ Star Party Update – March 4th
The Westport Observatory is socked in with clouds again tonight, so we're calling off this week's WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party. Mother Nature had other plans!
We hope the skies cooperate next week — clear skies and great views are worth the wait.
See you next Wednesday! https://was-ct.org/

🌕🔴 The Blood Moon Eclipse is happening Tuesday morning — good luck seeing it from the East Coast!
A total lunar eclipse is turning the Moon a stunning deep red tomorrow morning, with 58 minutes of totality. For those of us in Westport, CT and along the East Coast, the Moon rises already deep in totality... straight into clouds.

Total Lunar Eclipse Week!
On March 3, the full Moon slips into Earth’s shadow, glowing copper-red in a total lunar eclipse. No telescope needed — just clearer skies than the rain/snow currently threatening. Of course.
When it clears: Jupiter shines after sunset, Orion and M42 dazzle, and planetary pairings grace the evening sky.

Snow, snow… and yep, more snow. We finally dug out from the latest “Storm of the Century (This Week Edition)” just in time for another coating. Add clouds tonight and that’s a wrap.
The Westport Observatory is closed this evening, 2/25, for the WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party.
Let’s try this again next week. https://was-ct.org/
