In fun #observatory news, I got our @AllanICarswellObservatory telescope allsky camera on our website!

You'll know when we are open
Youll know when we are closed
You'll know if the skies are bad or good
so hope for good for goodness sake... https://www.yorku.ca/science/observatory/observers/

Happy Space Science Saturday! Did you know that Deneb and Vega (shown in these images) and Altair (not shown) make up an asterism called the Summer Triangle? An asterism is a well-known pattern or group of stars. These stars are also the alpha (brightest) stars of their constellation and are very prominent in the summer night sky.

How about for #blackfriday weekend we all turn out the extra lights and go for a #darkskies starparty? Fits the theme for sure!
Plus, there's a chance of clearing this weekend, and little telescopes are great fun 😄
