LVAS all,

 

We have a new participant in our monthly "Deep-Sky Observing Project". Dr. Don Olive is at GWU and the Director of the Williams Observatory. He is really a great guy...and a cyclist also. Not a requirement. I'm smiling as I write this.   

 

This is his part of the program for this month which is the "The Crab Nebula". Next month is NGC 2403 in Camelopardalis. If we can add one new observer to our program each month with a very short observing note or "other" it would be great.

 

 Much can be learned from shared experiences...
