If you happen to be in southwest Colorado sometime, I could direct you
to a place to watch the skies from at Ridgway State Park that is a
great spot for viewing. No lights. Many of the local stargazers
group go there to set up their equipment for viewing. Best place I
know of in this area, just need your mosquito spray.

Hey Guys:
What I wouldn't give to see just a star! I live between the
busiest airport
in the world, and the city of Atlanta. The only thing I see at night
are muggers
and the occasional fire fly. Okay, just kidding: fire flies are hard
to see too!

Sounds like a great time, Count. I'm happy for you.
I have a hard time imagining anywhere near Las Vegas being "pitch
dark"
though. I could see the Vegas light dome from the White Mountains,
near
Bishop CA the last few nights. As I normally do from Red Rock Canyon
S.P.,
near Mojave, CA. And from the North Rim of The Canyon. And the other
side of
St George, Utah. I think the Vegas light dome must cover about the
same
square mileage as the state of Nevada. You think you could have a
word with
those casino folks? ;^)
Just teasing...

Hi Shawn and List,
It will be "severe clear" tonight as pilots say here in Nevada. We
got
lucky. I rounded up the two youngest grandsons, Michael 12, and
Vincent
10, and we'll get up at one o'clock and take the Jeep out into the
pitch
dark desert north of Las Vegas. We have lawn chairs, iced chocolate
and
coffee. Temp is forecasted to be 70 degrees Farenheit during the
observation period. 105 degrees after the sun comes up. The boys
will want
to hunt meteorites on the way back.
Best to all...and to those on the West Coast of America...good
viewing!

I live in Brooklyn and its raining and when its not raining the
sky is
lite up by all the lights from Bk and the city. By chance what
time is the
best to look at the meteor shower and what part of the sky?
