Westport Observatory

This week, if you can find a clear patch of sky, Orion will be at its highest in the south around 8 p.m. The Aldebaran-Jupiter-Pleiades triangle will form a perfect right triangle throughout the week and next. It's also a great time to observe the zodiacal light. https://ow.ly/i3ei50V0xtQ

Spent like $300 on the starter telecope - a 5 inch light-bucket.

For a modern day rain dance, that price point appears to be worth about three dozen trips to the carwash and a non-company function picnic...

...may never see a clear patch of sky again.
