AstroPuNkSTAR PARTY CHAOS
1 Night at a Star Party… BEST NIGHT EVER
one night. that’s all it took
rocked up to the Messier Star Party thinking it’d be a chill night looking at stars… yeah nah
ended up interviewing Norm about a planispheric astrolabe he literally designed and built, Hugh with his home-built 6" RC, and Phil from the radio astronomy crew about what they’re doing with the dish out at LMDSS
ran Messier Bingo, gave away prizes, pointed telescopes at the Sun, then spent the rest of the night imaging under stupidly good skies
and somewhere in between all that… just hung out with a bunch of legends I haven’t seen in ages
one night, way too much fun, zero regrets
