Are there 2017 calendars available? I don't recall hearing anything about it. Matt Foster
There is an explanation in the newsletter that will be sent out later today when I get around to it. The lady that heads up the effort had some other life issues to deal with and the calendar committed decided to forgo a calendar for a while. Family first!

Did the all sky camera pick up the fire ball over kc just before 6pm new years eve? Steve Arnold was asking.
Me and my family were down at the DSS and seen it. John Fitzgerald also seen it from down there. I'm pretty sure it was a piece of space junk burning up as it moved REALLY slowly and had a bright golden color to it. It was much brighter than Venus. At the end, pieces were splitting off. We seen it about 30 degrees up in the NE heading NW. I seen it out my drivers sidewindow, and it moved slow enough for everyone to slide over from the passenger side and still see it before it was gone.

We have been offline since last week due to the idiots at Century Link. At first our home phone would ring into our neighbor's house and vice versa. We have had no phone or internet since last week. I may start a go fund me page for my criminal defense fund if I get my hands on some of their executives. Also, since so many Yahoo email accounts were hacked, I maybe one of the victims. You maybe receiving emails from my address. And am I suppose to trust my life with a self driving car or a vehicle that can be hacked. Right!

Chris, I tried accessing the Night Sky Network site again this morning and did not encounter the "Your connection is not private" problem (go figure!). Jerel, I’m using Chrome on Windows 7. I also accessed the site from my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 using Chrome. Nancy, I tried clearing cache last night per your recommendation but the problem continued. Not sure what caused the problem yesterday but it’s working today. Thanks all for responding. Glen Leber gleber@...

Yes, David that was my thought too. Though, for example, a few Israeli satellites go east to west. I think those are military and thus not covered much. But there were no decaying satellites reported on seesat-l@... or predicted on http://www.aerospace.org/cords/reentry-predictions/upcoming-reentries-2-2/. However, Dan Bush (fm north MO) posted his all sky cam video at the meteor website (ams). http://www.amsmeteors.org/videos/?video_id=419. <http://www.amsmeteors.org/videos/?video_id=419> (By the way, Dan has a very nice photo gallery Missouri Skies <http://www.pbase.com/missouri_skies/latest>) Maybe Al or Chris can dig the Powell view out of the archive.

It would be helpful for me to know all the details, and the value of the item, if it wasn't a monetary donation. I think that the HOASP door prize committee sent out such letters. Also, the donations to the Powell Fund or Solar Telescope Fund, are also being handled by that committee - but please correct me if I'm wrong. That has happened before. Have a great 2017! Thanks!

I am going to be at both of them. By the way, the calendar shows the wrong time for the Trailwood Elementary program. The school website shows it to be from 5:30 to 7:00 not 7:00 to 9:15.

Message:
Here is a very nice article from S&T with some very hopeful binocular and small scope comets we might see in the coming months. Gosh - it seems to me that we have had a serious drought of decent comets for the last couple years....so I really look forward to these babies. See http://www.skyandtelescope.com/observing/binocular-comet-bonanza-in-2017/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=sky-mya-nl-170106&utm_content=911818_SKY_HP_eNL_170106&utm_medium=email Over last summer I built a wonderful little 8" f/4 "rich-field" telescope specifically to get back into catching every comet I can. Let's keep our fingers crossed for a much-improved Comet Year in s 2017! : ^ ) Dave Hudgins

Subject:Nursing Home Question and more
Message:
Why? One of my concerns for TSE2017 is this telling everyone they have to get to totality. Well, not everyone can make it there. This includes a lot of individuals due to work, funding, lack of transportation or living location. Then I was notified through university channels of a grant taking proposals and it was suggested I write a proposal. The grant actually targeted some of those I mention above. People in nursing homes outside of totality certainly can't leave. However, how wonderful it would be if there was a way to help them observe the partial eclipse safely. That's why I was looking for individuals with a good working relationship to these facilities or on staff. Other locations would also include juvenile homes. An accompanying signed letter of agreement must be submitted with the proposal from partnering institutions. Along these lines, for the schools that contact me directly or through UMKC inviting the ASKC to participate in their school science nights, I am asking them to modify a letter of commitment, sign it and return it to me for their science night. I am also asking for a large room or auditorium for TSE2017 presentation and permission to sell our solar glasses. As the big events draws closer, the idiots, really the IDIOTS, will be coming our with bad information. We are the soldiers in the trenches that need to attack this and head it off. There are a lot of idiots out there who like to spread BS (not Bachelor of Science). Just listen to FM98.1 late at night for George Noory (Coast to Coast) or a show called Ground Zero. They are waiting for the mother ship. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Subject:FREE telescope and EQ mount...
Message:
That got your attention didn't it. Before you go crazy, it's an OLD (1980's?) Meade Starfinder Go-To EQ Mount with a Meade 8" Reflector. The mount's 108 tooth gear is broken (and Meade didn't have a replacement). I had the parts (need to get it from my friend who tried to 3D print a replacement unsuccessfully), though I bet the mount is too dated to be useful to anyone. The reflector on the other hand is a clean, kept-covered-in-the-dry, temperature coltrolled-ish basement, 8" sonotube reflector with a 1 1/4" focuser. It has a Telrad mount and the out-of-the-box finder, but I'm keeping the Telrad itself. The mirror(s) is probably great if you need one for an 8" reflector: everything was kept covered, so *should* be dust free. Here's the deal: you want any of it, you take all of it. Free scope = getting rid of the rest for me. :D Let me know if you're interested and I'll tell you where you can pick it all up.

Subject:Tim Landreth - past member ASKC, passed away
Message:
Many of you will remember Tim. He was quite the photographer, and many of our events were memorialized by him. He passed away two days ago, from a brain tumor. His Celebration of Life will be Tuesday, the 17th of January, 1-3 PM, at the Shawnee (KS) Civic Center, 13817 Johnson Drive, in Shawnee. I have an award winning picture taken about 18 years ago, of my grandson Mitch, and Jen Winter's Libby, playing with bubbles one afternoon out at Powell. It won a national award for "children playing". Jackie Jackie Beucher 11305 King St. Overland Park, KS. 66210 M31@... Home: 913-469-0135 Cell: 913-522-8799

Looks like we're in for some nasty weather and some possible power outages. Let's hope some of the past power loss events are NOT repeated. I had friends without power for over a week a few years back. bummer. I spent some time last fall overhauling my large generator so I am prepared for tree limb bingo. I also have two large battery inverters that will provide 120 volt power to computers, phones, and some lights. If your power goes out for a prolonged period give me a call and provided mine is still on you are welcome to borrow any of them. I would need help loading the generator into the trailer and can deliver it where needed. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Ron Roth and I met with the Paola United Methodist Church Men's Group. There were 20 guests present. I discussed the Solar System and the August 21, 2017 Total Solar Eclipse. Ron discussed and demonstrated use of a telescope. The group was engaged in our discussions asking pertinent questions. Our host, Joel Childers is interested in joining ASKC.

NSN members can register for this webinar in advance on Zoom <https://zoom.us/webinar/register/3ddc10db53de787e8c34be5db4a05ad8>. *About the MegaMovie* Since 2011, a team of solar scientists, eclipse chasers, education and outreach professionals, and film makers have been working to explore the possibility of gathering images from the public during the 2017 eclipse across the United States, to be used for scientific research, education, and enhancing the public’s experience of the eclipse. The MegaMovie hopes to meet these combined goals by training 1000 volunteers to take scientifically valid images to donate to this project, while also allowing the general public to share their images. During the August 21, 2017 eclipse, the MegaMovie effort will analyze these images in real-time to pr oduce public-generated movies showing the corona of the Sun during totality, taken by thousands of people, to millions more. Find out how you can join this exciting project during this webinar and check out the official site of the Eclipse MegaMovie Project at eclipsemega.movie *Webinar Registration page: *https://zoom.us/webinar/register/ 3ddc10db53de787e8c34be5db4a05ad8 You can find additonal links to *related resource*s on the webinar resource page <https://nightsky.jpl.nasa.gov/download-view.cfm?Doc_ID=595>.

Andee's Corner: How To Update Your Club Contact Info on the NSN Website* *Here is our latest tip from Andee Sherwood, Club Mentor & Trainer for the NSN Program:* We know that people relocate, change their volunteer status, or even stop volunteering for vario us reasons. Just as people change, clubs can change, too. Having current contact information available on your club's NSN homepage will be an asset for your club. One of your club coordinators can easily click on *EDIT CLUB SETUP* to make any changes necessary. Make sure you add a home address or business address where the NSN toolkits can be safely received by your club. If you are never home during the day when packages are delivered, use a different address that works best for your club in order to receive the kits. Also, if your club's website address has changed, you can add the new address. You can even add a link to your club's Facebook page, Instagram, Pinterest, or any other social media site you use to promote your club to the public. Keeping current information also helps the public and potential new members find you! And that's one good tip that will help your club grow. [image: Photo of a demo table set up with NASA NSN materials about the Sun,] *Photo: Lance Ripplinger/Star Valley Astronomy Club <https://starvalleyastronomy.com/>From: Community Science Fair <https://nightsky.jpl.nasa.gov/event-view.cfm?Event_ID=79138>, logged by Lance Ripplinger and organized by LaVor Jenkins* Lance showed folks the wonders of the Sun with his setup shown here, featuring Our Magnetic Sun toolkit materials and monitor hooked to his laptop to show visitors realtime images of our Sun from NASA. LaVor took visitors on a virtual tour of the universe using his laptop, a digital projector, and the Microsoft World Wide Telescope software, and other club members helped out where needed to help make this science fair a smashing success! *4.

Dear Members: Today I submitted on behalf of the ASKC a proposal to the American Astronomical Society's Julena Stenheider Duncombe Mini Grant. The grant required commitment letters from partner organizations who I contacted to conduct eclipse events in the Great Kansas City community. We received support/commitment letters from the following:David Brewer Elementary, Leavenworth, KSGirl Scouts of Northeast Kansas and Northwest Missouri CouncilScience Pioneers, powered by Science City at Union Station (that is their new organizational name)University of Missouri Extension Center Rockhurst UniversityUniversity of Missouri-Kansas City (Dr. Mark Brodwin, Dr. Dan McIntosh and Dept. Chair Dr.Jerzy Wrobel all signing) This is a $5,000 total grant. Not a matching fund agreement. Keep your fingers crossed. This would be a nice addition to the grant I submitted on behalf of the ASKC to the NASA Missouri Space Grant Consortium in which we were awarded a $3,500 matching grant, thus totaling $7,000. These will help greatly with our outreach efforts to educate, inform in inspire the public to view the Great American 2017 Total Solar Eclipse. I will update you when I hear more. I'm going looking for more. Of course, none of this can happen without your continued help and support. Joe_______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Message:
Hi Jackie, Miranda Crawford, friend of mine, is actually the donor of the small telescope I gave you for the recent HOASP to be a door prize.I'll privately email you her address and information. Though she didn't expect anything for her donation, I think she would really like the letter.Also, again she didn't expect anything so I'm asking on her behalf - could she get something she could use for a tax claim? If not, that's fine. If so, just an fyi that she took good care of the scope (only used once), contained everything it included originally, and if brought brand new it was something like $70 (I 'think' - it was last year that I looked).Again, she doesn't expect anything at all but thought if we give her a receipt in addition to the letter, I think it would be much appreciated. And, of course, it's used, so it would be whatever you think it was actually worth. Thanks,Cindy Thanks,Cindy BahlCindyLBahl@...816-812-9908 From: "'Jackie Beucher' m31@...

One of my jobs as VP is to send out acknowledgement letters to those that donate to the ASKC. If you are due such a letter for a 2016 donation, can you please let me know? It would be helpful for me to know all the details, and the value of the item, if it wasn’t a monetary donation. I think that the HOASP door prize committee sent out such letters. Also, the donations to the Powell Fund or Solar Telescope Fund, are also being handled by that committee – but please correct me if I’m wrong. That has happened before. Have a great 2017! Thanks!

You can order it online, but the website will calculate automatically calculate the shipping and handling at $4.32. (So, if you order it on-line, I will mail it.) The way around the shipping is to call me or email me and we can arrange payment method (credit card or check) and what ever pickup works out, like at ASKC meetings and events.

Message:
Hi Jason, I am super behind in reading the ASKC meetings. Was reading them sporadically and then not at all for the last two months. So I apologize for not responding sooner. 1. Danny Crump 2. I 'think' a friend of Danny's or at least he knows the gentleman. Both had 4 or 4.5 inch scopes near the entrance of Powell. 3. Leif 4. Myself Both Leif and I were set up next to the Powell 16 inch scope, beside it in the grass. We had a tarp down, two telescopes (8 inch SCT & 10 inch Dob), table, laptops set up with Stellarium, etc. 5. And then another gentleman who was set up by us. He was on the sidewalk in front of the 16 inch Powell telescope I believe. What's bad is we know that we know him but right now can't picture his face so we're blanking out on his name! I know he was running his own scope. Not sure if he was running the 16 inch Powell scope as well. So that, I think, is five astronomers total on the field. : ) Thanks,Cindy Thanks,Cindy BahlCindyLBahl@...816-812-9908 From: "'Jason' jason@...

They are available from the Astronomical League for $24.00 and in stock right here in Kansas City at the Astronomical League National Office. You can order it online, but the website will calculate automatically calculate the shipping and handling at $4.32. (So, if you order it on-line, I will mail it.) The way around the shipping is to call me or email me and we can arrange payment method (credit card or check) and what ever pickup works out, like at ASKC meetings and events. Go ahead and call so I can bring yours to the ASKC Holiday Party. (I'll bring a few extra, with me, as well.) Be sure to email me individually, you might have to type in ennyzen@gmail.com to do it.

Subject:The end of Iridium flares
Message:
With the successful launch of Space X and the deployment of 10 NEXT generation Iridium satellites, the flares will be coming to an end once the old fleet has been de-orbited. We've got about 2 years left to see them. http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-38613275 "One thing the new satellites will not be capable of doing, however, is producing Iridium "flares". These are the flashes in the sky that result when sunlight glints off the antennas of the old spacecraft. The new satellites do not have the same configuration, so once the original constellation is de-orbited the flashes will cease. "I'm afraid those who've been tracking that phenomenon over the past 20 years have another year or two to see it," Mr Desch told BBC News." Scott

I'll privately email you her address and information. Though she didn't expect anything for her donation, I think she would really like the letter. Also, again she didn't expect anything so I'm asking on her behalf - could she get something she could use for a tax claim? If not, that's fine. If so, just an fyi that she took good care of the scope (only used once), contained everything it included originally, and if brought brand new it was something like $70 (I 'think' - it was last year that I looked). Again, she doesn't expect anything at all but thought if we give her a receipt in addition to the letter, I think it would be much appreciated. And, of course, it's used, so it would be whatever you think it was actually worth. Thanks, Cindy Thanks, Cindy Bahl CindyLBahl@... 816-812-9908 _____ From: "'Jackie Beucher' m31@...

One of my jobs as VP is to send out acknowledgement letters to those that donate to the ASKC. If you are due such a letter for a 2016 donation, can you please let me know? It would be helpful for me to know all the details, and the value of the item, if it wasn’t a monetary donation. I think that the HOASP door prize committee sent out such letters. Also, the donations to the Powell Fund or Solar Telescope Fund, are also being handled by that committee – but please correct me if I’m wrong. That has happened before. Have a great 2017! Thanks!

Here you go. This is the link to the claim form signup. Pretty simple compared to other class action settlements. You will get an email confirmation which also tells you to be on the lookout for the settlement email where you set up instant electronic payment methods. Easy $10-$20 http://www.boughtmilk.com/ I saw this on social media and it was shared via this website, which lists all the current consumer class action lawsuits that are active. I found one for Blue Diamond Almond Crackers, which we go through a few boxes a month in our house. There's a few other ones listed that have a potential broad affected population. http://www.classactionrebates.com/#settlements Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@yahoo.com From: "youngmdavid youngmdavid@...

This is the link to the claim form signup. Pretty simple compared to other class action settlements. You will get an email confirmation which also tells you to be on the lookout for the settlement email where you set up instant electronic payment methods. Easy $10-$20 http://www.boughtmilk.com/ I saw this on social media and it was shared via this website, which lists all the current consumer class action lawsuits that are active. I found one for Blue Diamond Almond Crackers, which we go through a few boxes a month in our house.

On another note…. A friend of mine got a $7 check from some class action lawsuit, that she didn’t even know she was part of. She deposited the check in her bank. Guess what? It was a SCAM… a way for them to get her banking account information! Fortunately, her bank caught it before the debits got too high! Moral of the story?

I have owned a PST for years and the only problem I've had was a mirror came loose inside. The small mirror directs some light to the finder to make a little dot of light on the finder screen. I just had to re-glue it in place,with some silicon adhesive . The ASKC also owns a PST used at Powell and one is used at WARKO. They are very portable and a low end iOptron "cube" is an excellent match. Don't worry about the Cemax eyepieces. I have found no difference between the view between them and any other good eyepiece. In fact I usually use a Celestron zoom with my Solar max 90 double stack. The PST seems to be a perfect entry level solar scope. You can even double stack it later to get more surface detail. It does a nice job on prominences. You are welcome to borrow mine for a while if you want a test run.

Subject:REMINDER Teacher Resource Day 2017 (TRD2017)
Message:
Just a reminder that this Saturday is Educator Resource Day at UMKC. I will be uploading a PDF of astronomy educational material that they are posting to the ERD website for teachers to download. It is 49 pages of activities such. At our tables I hope we can do quick reviews of the following:TSE2017 (ASKC brochures to handout)Earth-Moon model. (please take a look at that write-up to explain) I will pick up some tennis balls to hand out.Moon phases History has proven that our table is quite busy. I'll bring some laptops to display Stellarium. If you have a tablet or laptop, bring it. We can't sell glasses, but we can inform them where they can get them. Printed Material we need on hand:TSE2017 InformationASKC InformationPowell Observatory and Warko Observatory Information Unfortunately, there is no good place to setup a solar scope on an outdoor patio or balcony. The time will go by really quickly Saturday. I plan to stay in the hood around UMKC until meeting time. Joe Science Pioneers powered by Science City will be hosting Educator Resource Day (ERD) 2017 on Saturday, January 28, 2017, from 9am-12pm. It will be held at Pierson Auditorium on the UMKC campus at 5000 Holmes. This event will feature organizations with STEM education opportunities for students and Master Teachers sharing STEM lesson plans. _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Subject:Educator Resource Day Material + ASKC Web site
Message:
I do not intend to mass print the entire packet. Maybe just the eclipse model activity. I am reading FB instructions about uploading PDF's with going through the process of making them jpegs. Science Pioneers collected such information from each presenter. In an ideal world, this is supposed to be uploaded to a location and each participant will receive the link to the page. Now,I have often thought the ASKC should have an EPO page with educational information. I spend a great deal of time at other astronomy clubs websites, not just NASA and all of its spin offs looking for ideas. FYI The Sun-Earth-Moon activity simulate eclipses.

Yeap, know all this. Have done it many times. We have some nice machines here and software (Bluebeam-great) to manipulate PDF's. Did read you can upload other formats. Just need to do it off the clock time. If you know what I mean. Working sure gets in the way of my passion. Don't think I can get Rita to go back to work. Ha, ha. I can hear her now. Joe I still have some of the eclipse activity printed from a previous event. It about time I fire up the color laser jet printer any way.

Message:
If you would like to speak at a public event hosted by the Mid Continent Public Library system, please let me know in a direct message with subject heading MCPL Speaker? The topic can be on any astronomy related topic of your choosing, including eclipses (TSE2017). This is part of an ongoing program and not specifically related to TSE2017 and extends into the end of the year. This would be a wonderful opportunity for YOU to represent the ASKC and inspire the public about astronomy and space exploration. Don't forget, current NASA missions is a great place to start. Thanks, Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Message:
I can talk about this now. I have been conversing with LHL about bringing some speakers to KC for the eclipse. The NASA HQ person has fallen off the radar screen, so we immediately discussed David Levy. I got confirmation today he will be here. David will be speaking at Linda Hall Library on Thursday, June 15th. If you are new to astronomy, Levy is a comet and asteroid discover. He has authored about 35 books and received an Emmy for "3 Minutes to Impact." A documentary about the collision of the comet he co-discovered, Comet Shoemaker-Levy-9 (SL9), with Jupiter in 1994.He is also a member of the ASKC. Along with he wife Wendee, they lead the Sharing the Sky Foundation, inspiring youth people to get involved in astronomy.

Subject:Educator Materials on ASKC Website
Message:
Joe Wright mentioned in a topic earlier that perhaps the ASKC should have an EPO page with educational information. He also stated that he spends a great deal of time at other astronomy clubs websites, not just NASA and all of its spin offs looking for ideas. I think that is an excellent suggestion. Would it be the Marketing Team that would address the creation of an area for our web site? Maybe the Eclipse Committee could address this also? I think we should follow up on Joe's suggestion.

Message:
Details: Date: Saturday Jan. 28thTime: 08:00 setupPlace: UMKC Pierson Auditorium 5000 Holmes (lots of parking) Kansas City, MissouriEvent Time: 9am-12pm What is it? This event will feature organizations with STEM education opportunities for students and Master Teachers sharing STEM lesson plans. Who Sponsored it? Science Pioneers powered by Science City Why should the ASKC be involved? We have a fundamental responsibility to help educate the public about astronomy, space exploration and the related sciences. It also helps to promote the ASKC and all of its interests. And by some sheer luck of fate, bring new and maybe, just maybe, some young blood and energy into the organization. Not disrespected to any one over 50. My self almost included in that number._______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Feel free to come down. Of course the private group has priority with the 30" but you will have access to the LCT's 16" telescope, power for your gear AND a place to use the restroom and warm up.

Subject:2" variable filter question - Orion Scope, Explore Scientific EP
Message:
I am finally looking to get a variable filter for my 8" Orion Dob, and I was looking to get the Orion 5562 but then read several reviews that mentioned it was threaded uniquely for Orion EPs. I do have a 24mm 2" Orion EP that came with my scope, but my main EP is a 2" Explore Scientific 82*/18mm. Can anyone attest to whether the Orion 5562 filter and EPs are in fact uniquely threaded for each other? If so, any recommendations for a variable filter for my 2" ES EP? I just assumed these things were all threaded to an industry standard, but maybe not? Thanks much!

Can anyone attest to whether the Orion 5562 filter and EPs are in fact uniquely threaded for each other? If so, any recommendations for a variable filter for my 2" ES EP? I just assumed these things were all threaded to an industry standard, but maybe not? Thanks much!

OK, now I see why you may not know who I am. If I view this via the Yahoo group web I see my comments as from "stephen_stark_kc", but in the e-mail that is sent out it just shows my e-mail address without a descriptive name like I see for pretty much everybody else. Not sure how I can change that because I entered my real name and a descriptive alias into Yahoo two years ago when I first joined the club and this group. So, hi, Stephen Stark here -- nice to meet ya!

(my apologies if this ends up being a double-post... I replied once already but it didn't show up so I re-typed it) Hi David, I should perhaps have mentioned that I contacted Orion about this yesterday and the person honestly didn't seem to understand the distinction I was trying to make and just kept repeating the same scripted answer about how "It's like a dimmer switch for your telescope", without ever addressing my question as to whether it would fit non-Orion EPs. So that's why I posted here, as a next resort, looking for the input of experienced members as to whether or not there is any substance to the reviews that said Orion used non-standard threading or if those here might recommend an entirely different variable filter. Orion scopes are pretty popular so I'd think I'm not the first to face this but the information I've been exposed to so far seems contradictory. I suppose I could just order it and return it ASAP if it doesn't fit my EP, but I was trying to get it right up-front. Thoughts? Thanks.

The last time i bought an Orion 2" eyepiece was probably 10 years ago. At that time, the threading was the same as any other eyepiece and filters would fit in the Orion eyepiece the same as it did in a TeleVue eyepiece.

Thanks Scott, your experience speaks volumes. I assumed the threads were standard as well until I read a few reviews that said otherwise and gave me pause. One guy mentioned that it came apart while he was using it, that it slid down his tube, and that he was lucky he was at a low viewing angle and didn't break his primary mirror. I don't know, maybe those reviewers just didn't thread it on correctly themselves. I'd really rather try to avoid breaking my primary mirror though just to find out! So, I know you can't personally vouch for any product's specific manufacturing weirdness, but if your experience is that they are standard (as they should be) then that's good enough for me to proceed, albeit with due caution. Thankyousir!

Like i said, it was probably 10 years ago, so they could have changed their threading since then. But what good reason would they have to do that? I imagine that someone in the club has recently bought an Orion eyepiece that can check the threading on a standard filter they have. And of course, you should be able to return it.

I only have Television eyepieces in the two inches size. I have Television, Meade, Celestron, Orion and a few of balls in the 1.25" and the 1.25" Orion filters fit all of them. I will be going to Powell this week with Jason to work on a couple of projects. The Observatory has both Television and Explore Scientific eyepieces as well as some 2" filters.

Yes, that would surprise me as well. A concerned thought wouldn't have even crossed my mind if others hadn't reported alleged threading problems. I went ahead and ordered it just now and we'll see how it goes. Thanks for the sounding board, I figure if Orion were non-standard then surely experienced guys like you would have known about it and immediately given me the scoop, but if it's non-news to you then I trust it's probably non-news at all and that the reviewers are either just mistaken, threaded it wrong, or had rare defective filers. So, thanks for humoring my caution. I know I can return it if it doesn't fit, it's more the potential damage to the scope/mirror itself that I was worried about. Again, I know you and Scott can't speak to oddball situations or defects, but if your formidable combined experience is that they are and ought to be standard then that's good enough for me to move ahead with it.

Subject:St. Joseph Eclipse Event - 8-21-17 - making a reservation
Message:
Regarding the ASKC sponsored event for the eclipse, the City of St. Joseph made the decision to charge a parking fee for cars and for RV's. It is $20 for a car and $50 for an RV. If you have an RV, you can come the day before and spend the night. There are no hook-ups for your RV, however. I have reserved an RV spot, just as a place to set up a canopy, and for friends and family to hang out. Here is the location to make your reservation, and I suggest you do it soon: https://event.attendstar.com/event/show/2017-st-joseph-mo-total-solar-eclips e/ IF the link doesn't work, you can reach it through the website, www.stjosepheclipse.com On the first page, on the right at the top, under Latest News... click there. I think you can figure the rest out. Good Luck, and let me know if you have any questions.

Yeah! Water service has been restored to Powell Observatory. The City of Louisburg has isolated the water main leak down-stream of the observatory, so we have municipal water service again. Thank you for your cooperation with temporary measures. If anyone that provided jugs would like them returned, please let me know. Particularly, there is a teal-colored 5-gallon water jug that needs to find its way back to the owner. Thanks, Jason Forst Director, Powell Observatory

Subject:New solar telescope
Message:
I set up the ASKC's new solar telescope in my driveway. Currently looking though a patch of high clouds. No sunspots visible but one nice prominence and several small ones. The high cloud appears to me moving off. John Fitzgerald stopped by and we played with different settings of the three bandpass adjustments. We started by moving all three adjustments off of the settings I used the last time. After tuning for the best view of the prominence we found that adjusting the main tuning lever just a few degrees would make the prominence almost disappear and filaments pop into view. We compared the view with the supplied 25mm Cemax eyepiece vs a Celestron 8X24 mm zoom. The zoom actually had better views! So much for the advertising claim that the Cemax eyepieces are optimized for use with the SolarMax telescopes. I'm going to leave the scope set up for a while to see if I can notice any changes in the prominence. I'm not enthusiastic enough to do any imaging today.

Yep, got plans to be up in the early hours 2/11 at my mom's "Dark Sky Site" up near Iatan to take it in as best I can! Hopefully the weather and viewing cooperate. I missed an opportunity to see it a few weeks ago when it was visible to the west after sunset, I think it was at around mag 7 then. But not this time... my eye is definitely on YOU 45P/Honda-Mrkos-Pajdusokova!

I'm planning on trying to image this as well the morning of 2/11 (not quite as far north as Iatan), though the cloud forecast is meh and getting worse (36% cloud coverage overnight into 80+% Saturday morning per Accuweather, the only site of which I know that provides those kinds of forecasts that far out). Also...full moon. As long as I have a view of polaris and a couple of other random bright stars in other parts of the sky, Stellarium should be able to go-to and lock onto 45P (it did in December).

Subject:Doing a school presentation - tips?
Message:
Fellow members, I am breaking out of my astronomy shell on 2/17 and will have the opportunity to speak publicly for about an hour at a school 6th/7th grade science class to help them close out their unit on astronomy. Obviously in an hour I can't go too deep but I'd like to briefly cover things like: -- How Edwin Hubble changed our view of the universe when he settled "the great debate", and finally proved that the "Andromeda Nebula" and many other "nebulae" were in fact distant galaxies far outside our own. (sidenote: My youngest son plays basketball for a guy named Mike Hubble who is related!) -- To show them my 8" Dob and 90mm Maks-Cass and explain what different types of scopes are best suited for. -- To introduce them to Stellarium so they can "explore space" on their own at home even without a telescope,. -- To go outside and have them view the Sun (and hopefully some sunspots) through my 8" Dob with a solar filter. This will be my first time to "present" astronomy to anybody but my wife, kids, dog, and guinea pigs. So, any advice, tips, or resources? Thanks, Stephen Stark

You seem to have a handle on some things that might interest the target age group. Sadly the white light sun doesn't have much going on. I have a PST you can borrow that will show prominences. I'll be back in town Feb 14 if you want to come by and get it and the iOptron mount. I live south near I-435 and State line and I see you live north so it would be an hour and a half trip for you:-( Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Stephen, I have often thought as a society we do not prepare our members to speak in public. You are well on your way by doing. What you have is good. Just be honest and let your passion come through. All to often, astronomers talk at people, not to them and don't be afraid to say "I don't know, but I will find out for you" if confronted with a question your are not sure of answering correctly. One simple demonstration how an eye, camera or telescope works is simply take a magnifying glass or lens and hold it away from a blank sheet of paper. Rita and I use old projector lenses or $1 magnifying lenses and have the kids pair up. One holds the lens and the other the sheet. Once they get an image, change holding each and move to another part of the room and try again. Getting involved in the outreach events will help hone your skills. Don't forget to make direct eye contact with them while you talk and move around. The eye contact gives each person a sense of being personal engaged and try to ask leading questions to draw them out. Let them also learn from each other. In our Girl Scout programs, Rita and I try to have other girls answer questions before we jump in. Pier to pier learning. Learn it. Teach it. Share it! If you are interested learning more types of hands on activities, let us know. Good luck and keep it up. It is very rewarding.

Obviously in an hour I can't go too deep but I'd like to briefly cover things like: -- How Edwin Hubble changed our view of the universe when he settled "the great debate", and finally proved that the "Andromeda Nebula" and many other "nebulae" were in fact distant galaxies far outside our own. (sidenote: My youngest son plays basketball for a guy named Mike Hubble who is related!) -- To show them my 8" Dob and 90mm Maks-Cass and explain what different types of scopes are best suited for. -- To introduce them to Stellarium so they can "explore space" on their own at home even without a telescope,. -- To go outside and have them view the Sun (and hopefully some sunspots) through my 8" Dob with a solar filter. This will be my first time to "present" astronomy to anybody but my wife, kids, dog, and guinea pigs. So, any advice, tips, or resources? Thanks, Stephen Stark

Thanks all, I am pretty comfortable speaking in public so long as I'm comfortable with the material and this is just my first time to do "astronomy", it'll be interesting to see what the kids throw at me -- hopefully it's just questions. :-) But in setting this up the teacher already commented how he loved my "geeky-enthusiasm" and how my face lit up just talking about sunspots and watching how they change, and says that's pretty much the energy he wants to communicate to the kids. So, yeah, I don't plan to "lecture" so much as I hope to have a rough outline that I can use to structure the hour and hopefully hook them, reel them in a bit, and then put my passion on display in a way that's more organically educational than a formal lecture. Dave, thanks for the PST offer. Let's see how the Sun shapes up by then, maybe some spots will appear.... maybe. If not, I may take you up on your PST. I'd like to give them something to look at, but does anybody think it could be a bottleneck having one scope for a class of about 20? I very much want to give them the opportunity to look through a good telescope with their own eye to see what they can see, but I also don't want to spend too much of my limited time just corralling kids for a short view. So, based on the experience of those around here, anybody think it could/should be an issue to give roughly 20 kids an appetizer view through either my Dob and/or the PST in the allotted time? Thanks for you input, I'm pretty excited to actually be making plans for this. Stephen Stark

This will be my first time to "present" astronomy to anybody but my wife, kids, dog, and guinea pigs. So, any advice, tips, or resources?

Stephan, Getting 20 students to look thru a scope will be time challenging. Especially if the scope needs to be set up outside the building. Moving the students. Keeping them occupied with topics and questions while they view it one by one. Then getting them all back into class. I think that may take over half your allotted time. But, if your enthusiasm comes through on this topic, as your instructor noted, it may be worth it. And can be tied to the eclipse with the hole in a paper projection method. Just note the other topics may have to be reduced. Depending on the weather, you may need a few topics in your back pocket to expand if you can't go out. And my usual comment -- stay focused on just a few key ideas -- you run out of time so easily. Dave Brackey

Thanks all for the helpful suggestions. YES! I definitely plan to talk about the eclipse and how to see it. I was planning to mention it during the outdoor time as part of talking about daytime astronomy and keeping them engaged while students take turns at the scopes. I'll have two scopes available but I currently only have a solar filter for the Dob. The 2nd scope is an Orion Starmax 90mm. Anybody by chance happen to have a solar filter for that? It might speed things up and be more interesting if I had both scopes operational. As for content, I think I can easily fill the hour without going outside at all, but I really want to give them some kind of hands on if possible. But ff weather or time prohibit then it's nice to have some fallback options. Thank you all so much, Stephen Stark On Wed, Feb 8, 2017, 20:20 pjafferis@...

Many thanks to Rita Wright, Ron Roth and Lario Yerino for representing the ASKC last night to about 200 students and parents. This included a Celestron 8" outside for lunar viewing and a scope inside next to the display table with meteorites, TSE2017 handouts and other information. Thanks folks.

Message:
It was cloudy pretty much all night up near Iatan where I was observing. The full moon, Venus, and some brighter stars were visible through the haze last night. I got a brief clear window on Jupiter this morning about 5am, but pretty much the closest I could get to seeing Comet 45p/H-M-P was to pick out nearby Kornephoros and starry neighbors, but it was downhill from there to actually see 45p -- starting to think I'm going to entirely miss it this time around. :-/ Stephen Stark On Thu, Feb 9, 2017, 15:47 Carroll Iorg carroll.iorg@...

Ronelle Williams just said a few minutes ago that there were a lot of disappointed people on social media. We traded some texts a few minutes ago. He was unaware that Gary Amble said, "...the moon will completely darken..." during the eclipse. I am sure this set the stage for the disappointment. 31 Jan 2018 we see a Total Lunar Eclipse as the moon sets.21 Jan 2019 we get to see the entire Total Lunar Eclipse. Odds are, it will be cloudy on these dates. It is the Mid-West. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Jackie, I think that is the one I brought to Board meeting a few months ago. I figure a belt and suspenders approach may be best - smart phone with maps , printed maps like Espenak's, and a lot of pre-planning of alternate sites. And, keep the gas tank full! The full gas tank is a good idea even if one is not going to travel beyond the more local locations like St Joe or Smithville Lake. I suspect the level of traffic may be "interesting" .

I think I have settled on Lathrop, MO to watch the eclipse after playing around with the interactive google map. There are some soccer fields just off the main street through town that should provide some parking and ample space to set up to observe. I will contact the city to be sure there won't be any problems using the fields and I'm hoping the amount of traffic will be reasonable. Here are the coordinates you can put in a google maps search to bring up the location for anyone else interested: 39.553721, -94.321132 Like many people, if there is any possibility for a cloudy day, I am willing to travel a few states away and stay in a hotel the night before.

There are some soccer fields just off the main street through town that should provide some parking and ample space to set up to observe. I will contact the city to be sure there won't be any problems using the fields and I'm hoping the amount of traffic will be reasonable. Here are the coordinates you can put in a google maps search to bring up the location for anyone else interested: 39.553721, -94.321132 Like many people, if there is any possibility for a cloudy day, I am willing to travel a few states away and stay in a hotel the night before.

I figure a belt and suspenders approach may be best - smart phone with maps , printed maps like Espenak's, and a lot of pre-planning of alternate sites. And, keep the gas tank full! The full gas tank is a good idea even if one is not going to travel beyond the more local locations like St Joe or Smithville Lake. I suspect the level of traffic may be "interesting" .

Subject:Re: [ASKC] Eclipse Books and Maps
Message:
I was unaware of that since I haven't done any investigation. Town celebrations like that are usually centered downtown, which is a mile from the soccer fields. Lathrop isn't a very well known town but since it's right off i-35, eclipse travelers will surely have it on their radar. Hopefully by July the city will have an idea of how large of a crowd of eclipse tourists they are expecting based on phone and email inquiries. With it being on a Monday of the second week of the new school year, that may keep the crowd sizes down a bit. Plattsburg was another option I was going to look into this summer.

Message:
While we are on the topic of that part of the state, I had been searching for a dark sky location to observe a bit closer than the DSS for me (1.5hr drive). There is a missouri dept of conservation area north of Polo, MO called Bonanza Conservation Area that contains 10 or 12 gravel lots that can be used for camping or use until 10pm. The dark sky map shows it as comparable to the DSS and I confirmed that with a quick observing session a couple months ago. Just FYI if anyone north of the MO river need a spot other than Smithville lake. 39.626658, -93.949164 Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@... From: "Scott s.kranz1@...

Message:
Lawson isn't making any formal plans. There is also the Crooked River Conservation Area. It has several gravel parking lots. We took the Scouts and hiked the area once. Off the beaten path and yields 2m38s of Totality. Lathrop has had a antique or horse show in August for years. My Boy Scout troop use to camp on the fair grounds and I helped repair the water line crossing the property. East of Plattsburg is a boat access area that is open and would be good for a spot. As well as Hartell Cons. Area north of the town. To be open, in all of my presentations, I mention that people should look for these types of locations. I don't like large crowds and had never entertained any idea of going somewhere to observe the event. The best thing to have is an exit strategy! If you take the wrong road South out of Plattsburg, you will find it ends at the old bridge crossing. In fact, just south of Plattsburg is another open area as you take Birch Rd. from town. But, it gets really dusty down there in August with dead air. Running around on the roads from Lathrop to Plattsburg is how I put 24,000 miles each year on Whitey back in the late 90's. Plan, backup plan and emergency plan! Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Town celebrations like that are usually centered downtown, which is a mile from the soccer fields. Lathrop isn't a very well known town but since it's right off i-35, eclipse travelers will surely have it on their radar. Hopefully by July the city will have an idea of how large of a crowd of eclipse tourists they are expecting based on phone and email inquiries. With it being on a Monday of the second week of the new school year, that may keep the crowd sizes down a bit. Plattsburg was another option I was going to look into this summer.

Message:
Damn, the spot we and the Kennedy's have been eyeing has been found! Yes, it is dark out there and there are a couple of parking areas. Before we moved, Rita and I visited about 100 homes, if not more and the print-outs filled a 3"-3 ring binder. This went on for about 3 years. Heck, could be closer to 150 or 200. From Smithville to Braymer. I would select about 5 possibilities and then plugged them into Street Atlas USA and away were went on a Saturday or mostly Sunday drive. It was nothing to knock off about 250 miles. If we liked a place well enough, we went back at night with an instrument. We looked at a place by Bonanza that even had a car lift in the detached garage...boy, oh boy! The DSS is a 120 miles from us and Bonanza is only 36. By the Dark Sky Map, just as good, if not better than the DSS. At least back then. It will be interesting to see where all of us land for the eclipse.

The dark sky map shows it as comparable to the DSS and I confirmed that with a quick observing session a couple months ago.

Subject:Re: [ASKC] Eclipse Books and Maps
Message:
Great info, Thanks! Plattsburg was my #3 options and my #2 option is Watkins Mill State Park with 2m34s of totality. Lots of locations in that area along the interstate that are only separated by 5-10sec of totality. I could watch it from my driveway but would only get 1m49s...my wife doesn't understand why I want to drive 30 minutes north to gain an extra 45 seconds of the eclipse. I have a feeling she will understand once it happens :) Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@... From: "Joseph Wright jos.wright@...

There is also the Crooked River Conservation Area. It has several gravel parking lots. We took the Scouts and hiked the area once. Off the beaten path and yields 2m38s of Totality. Lathrop has had a antique or horse show in August for years. My Boy Scout troop use to camp on the fair grounds and I helped repair the water line crossing the property. East of Plattsburg is a boat access area that is open and would be good for a spot. As well as Hartell Cons. Area north of the town. To be open, in all of my presentations, I mention that people should look for these types of locations. I don't like large crowds and had never entertained any idea of going somewhere to observe the event. The best thing to have is an exit strategy! If you take the wrong road South out of Plattsburg, you will find it ends at the old bridge crossing. In fact, just south of Plattsburg is another open area as you take Birch Rd. from town. But, it gets really dusty down there in August with dead air. Running around on the roads from Lathrop to Plattsburg is how I put 24,000 miles each year on Whitey back in the late 90's. Plan, backup plan and emergency plan! Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Town celebrations like that are usually centered downtown, which is a mile from the soccer fields. Lathrop isn't a very well known town but since it's right off i-35, eclipse travelers will surely have it on their radar. Hopefully by July the city will have an idea of how large of a crowd of eclipse tourists they are expecting based on phone and email inquiries. With it being on a Monday of the second week of the new school year, that may keep the crowd sizes down a bit. Plattsburg was another option I was going to look into this summer.

There are some soccer fields just off the main street through town that should provide some parking and ample space to set up to observe. I will contact the city to be sure there won't be any problems using the fields and I'm hoping the amount of traffic will be reasonable. Here are the coordinates you can put in a google maps search to bring up the location for anyone else interested: 39.553721, -94.321132 Like many people, if there is any possibility for a cloudy day, I am willing to travel a few states away and stay in a hotel the night before.

I figure a belt and suspenders approach may be best - smart phone with maps , printed maps like Espenak's, and a lot of pre-planning of alternate sites. And, keep the gas tank full! The full gas tank is a good idea even if one is not going to travel beyond the more local locations like St Joe or Smithville Lake. I suspect the level of traffic may be "interesting" .

Nice! That looks like a good place so I'll definitely check it out. It is the same drive time to a spot at Smithville lake I use occasionally, which has a lots of trees obstructing the horizons and lots of traffic being near a highway.

Town celebrations like that are usually centered downtown, which is a mile from the soccer fields. Lathrop isn't a very well known town but since it's right off i-35, eclipse travelers will surely have it on their radar. Hopefully by July the city will have an idea of how large of a crowd of eclipse tourists they are expecting based on phone and email inquiries. With it being on a Monday of the second week of the new school year, that may keep the crowd sizes down a bit. Plattsburg was another option I was going to look into this summer.

Subject:Re: [ASKC] Eclipse Books and Maps
Message:
That's a good idea. Columbia was mentioned by a member a couple weeks ago. I would think the university and/or local astronomy club is hosting an event or two south of town. When I was looking at that possibility, the Rock Bridge Memorial State Park was close to the middle of the path and not too far from town. Three Creeks Conservation Area and Columbia Regional Airport are right in the middle of the path. Boonville is also perfectly positioned so I'm sure the city will also be holding a major event near the riverfront. Isle of Capri casino would surely have no problem with a mass of people setting up in their parking lot to watch the event, and I bet they will be running some promotions and advertising along the lines of "the odds seeing a total eclipse in your lifetime"!

Town celebrations like that are usually centered downtown, which is a mile from the soccer fields. Lathrop isn't a very well known town but since it's right off i-35, eclipse travelers will surely have it on their radar. Hopefully by July the city will have an idea of how large of a crowd of eclipse tourists they are expecting based on phone and email inquiries. With it being on a Monday of the second week of the new school year, that may keep the crowd sizes down a bit. Plattsburg was another option I was going to look into this summer.

There are some soccer fields just off the main street through town that should provide some parking and ample space to set up to observe. I will contact the city to be sure there won't be any problems using the fields and I'm hoping the amount of traffic will be reasonable. Here are the coordinates you can put in a google maps search to bring up the location for anyone else interested: 39.553721, -94.321132 Like many people, if there is any possibility for a cloudy day, I am willing to travel a few states away and stay in a hotel the night before.

I figure a belt and suspenders approach may be best - smart phone with maps , printed maps like Espenak's, and a lot of pre-planning of alternate sites. And, keep the gas tank full! The full gas tank is a good idea even if one is not going to travel beyond the more local locations like St Joe or Smithville Lake. I suspect the level of traffic may be "interesting" .

Subject:Pink Brain hats available to order
Message:
I know some of you will be doing the Science March on April 22nd. Thought I'd let you know I have a friend who is making them for $20 each. They'll be in pink. If other than pink, may be a dollar or two more (because she would then need to buy different yarn).She's taking orders with expectation to have them available by early April due to the march is 4/22. If you need it before then, let me know. If you want one.... send me a private email at CindyLBahl@... She's got plenty of business but thought you guys might want a brain hat as well. For any reason. lolI'm going to use my for Halloween this year along with a lab coat, etc. : ) Thanks,Cindy BahlCindyLBahl@...816-812-9908

Subject:Re: [ASKC] Eclipse Books and Maps - Morrison
Message:
I contacted Kendal at Morrison some time ago about the eclipse and here is his reply. You may recall, MCAA (Central Missouri Astronomy Association) helped operate Morrison. Dr. Peery passed away about 3 years ago. Also, the Benedictine College in Atchison is planning activities. This includes guest speakers from the VATT (Vatican Observatory). It will not be Bro. Guy Consolmagno. I've been trading emails with the VATT about speakers under the grant and for other reasons. Joe Joseph,The Eclipse falls on the first day of classes for the University in the Fall. We do have events planned at the observatory, including tours and demonstrations that will start that morning and run well after the eclipse is over. Feel free to suggest Fayette as a viewing location. With the City Park next to the observatory we should have room for people to view.Things are going well at the observatory, we will start our public nights March 24th. Hope to see you in the Spring.

Message:
Went out and watched the ISS flyover as well, easily visible from even a brightly lit Panera parking lot. Turns out I'm a shameful astronomer though -- I've been doing this for about two years now and realized only last night that for all I've shown to other friends and family I had yet to point out an ISS flyover to my own wife. She finally got to see it with me last night so now I'm at least a little less ashamed than I was before. :-) Then later last night my youngest son, 10, who has been coming out in the backyard and driveway with me more lately, spent about an hour with me just looking at "whatever". I have increasingly turned the aiming of the scopes to him -- He's been doing great and is way more excited to look at M42, Mars, or Venus when he finds it himself than when I slew it there for him. Now that I'm officially breaking out of my shell tomorrow I might join you all from time-to-time for public events. Still so much I don't know... but I also love being there when people see the Trapezium, the crescent of Venus, or the clouds of Jupiter, or the rings of Saturn, or, or, or.... for the first time. Or even the 100th. Good stuff. Stephen Stark On Thu, Feb 16, 2017 at 8:47 AM Joseph Wright jos.wright@...

I got this from my Tucson club. We need your help on a brand new astronomy project - Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 In this project you'll be searching through images from NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mission, hunting for objects such as brown dwarfs and low-mass stars in our Solar System's neighbourhood. You may find an object closer than Proxima Centauri (the closest star to the Sun) or even discover the Sun's hypothesized ninth planet, which models suggest might appear in these images! Start hunting right now at www.backyardworlds.org. Thanks for all the help you give!Zooniverse Team _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Hey, I'm happy to report that the presentation went fantastic and the kids were really engaged, asked great questions, and we managed to get everybody outside for at least a quick view through both my Dobsonian with a Mylar filter, and a little PST that David Young was kind enough to loan out to me. I had to pretty much cut out even a glimpse at Stellarium so they'd have time at the scopes, but I did hand out 18 ASKC TSE2017 brochures, and gave the kids links to the TSE2017 Google Map and to download Stellarium if they want to look into it on their own.

While I was in Tucson last week I visited the Lunt factory and was given a tour of the facility and a look through a 60mm Lunt double stacked, pressure tuned solar scope. One of the things mentioned was the fact that Lunt and Coronado scopes are subject to oxidation of the etalons. My guide personally assembled 9000 PSTs during his time at Coronado and suggested that if you want to minimize the discoloration you MUST use desiccant packs in your storage container. I have been placing one in my solar max case for a while but have been remiss with the PST. I have a number of desiccant packs I purchased a few years ago. I intend to place one in each solar scope storage case at Powell. I have some more if anyone wants one. They must be baked in an oven for 12 hours to dry them out before you use them. They can be reused over and over. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Subject:Private Night - April 29 - Observatory Assistant Needed
Message:
For the 2017 season, I do not have a duty week partner (nor does David Young). We'll be asking for volunteers throughout the year. So, here's the first request: one or more assistants for a private night on Saturday, April 29, 8 pm - until approximately midnight(? ). This is a group of 20 guests. You do not need to be a keyholder to assist. This is the Saturday before the public season starts. For non-keyholders, this event would be a good opportunity to refresh yourself with Powell procedures and the night sky before public nights start. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Best, Mike Stewart

Subject:DSSS Power
Message:
I'm at the DSS and have discovered there is no power in the field. Checked three different poles with an electric clock and found no power at any of them. Tried to reset the master breaker marked "field" at the main power box, but no luck. Even the outlet by the REBB front door has no power. The REBB has power, so I'm set up with a drop cord from the REBB. Just thought you might want to know that if you are thinking of coming down and need power. Jim

We'll be asking for volunteers throughout the year. So, here's the first request: one or more assistants for a private night on Saturday, April 29, 8 pm - until approximately midnight(? ). This is a group of 20 guests. You do not need to be a keyholder to assist. This is the Saturday before the public season starts. For non-keyholders, this event would be a good opportunity to refresh yourself with Powell procedures and the night sky before public nights start. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Subject:8-21-17 ECLIPSE - GOING TO ST. JOE? Need to act soon!
Message:
As you all probably know, Michael Bakich (Astronomy Magazine) worked with the City of St. Joe, and the Roscrans Airport is reserved for folks the day of the eclipse. I know that many of you are staying "mobile", but if you wanted to be there on the center line, you might want to consider making a parking reservation NOW. It costs $20. I actually reserved an RV spot, so I'd have lots of room for family and friends. You can come as early as Saturday, and stay until the 21st. Here is how: Go to: www.stjosepheclipse.com ENTER. On the right, under RECENT NEWS, is a paragraph about reserving your spot. CLICK THERE. Then specific instructions are listed. Just letting you know, so all your bases are covered.

Message:
Kudo's to Marcia Young, for an outstanding "Letter to the Editor" in today's paper, which outlines all the support the ASKC gave over the years to keep the Gottlieb Planetarium ALIVE. As she states, the planetarium was far more than "a projection system that had been pieced together", prior to the $300,000 recent upgrades. Members of the ASKC, listed in her letter, all gave hundreds of hours to keep it going. What a shame that we are rarely given credit for it. Way to go, Marcia! Jackie Beucher

Subject:Re: [ASKC] LETTER TO EDITOR TODAY - KC STAR - ABOUT THE PLANETARIUM
Message:
Yes, indeed good going Marcia. We need to straighten them (media and USSC) out. I still have notes from the first meeting of the steering committee we formed with USSC in 2005 when I was president. I even remember Dean's reply (USSC management) when we suggested changing it from "City Dome" to "Planetarium." Dean said, "we can't call it a planetarium, we don't show planets." Do you recall the big hoopla President and CEO of US George Guastello made about having me sign the "Memorandum of Understanding" to form a partnership with them and the ASKC. He made it out to be some kind of big press event/ceremony and it was one of their staff with a camera. I have a copy of that letter and Rita took photos of the event. My last straw helping them was when they promised us the glass enclosure in front of the theater for ASKC display space. Rita and I went down there a week or two later to update the display. It had a Mars rover, my Marscape photos (6 panels 40"x60" each), the Dembinski Galileo telescope replicas and more. Everything was gone! Staff removed the items and piled it all on the floor in the planetarium, damaging the irreplaceable photos. Just too many broken promises from them! Personally, I encourage people to visit the Cosmosphere and the science center in St. Louis. _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Subject:Re: [ASKC] private night
Message:
The observatory has been reserved for a private event for March 3. The group is paying $100 plus $5 per person to have the observatory to themselves. I do not think it is appropriate for others to "crash" their party. Since you are a member of the ASKC you can call me up and reserve the observatory for YOUR private night for free as one of the benefits of YOUR membership. Call me and we'll set up a night for you and your mother. It will be your night. You can bring other family members as well. Call me. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Message:
Marcia, Way to go. For too many years the contributions of a few talented and dedicated members of ASKC have gone unnoticed and unappreciated. Thanks for putting their names out there! Kansas City needs to know that they wouldn't even HAVE a planetarium if it wasn't for these talented individuals and the hours of effort that they put forth. Way to go, Marcia!!! Ron Abbott

Subject:Fwd: new planets
Message:
---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Susan Ketchum <ketchumsue48@gmail.com> Date: Thu, Feb 23, 2017 at 12:02 PM Subject: new planets To: Jim <jimketchum44@...> Here is what Cosmologist Dr. Hugh Ross said about the new planets: NASA just announced <https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-telescope-reveals-largest-batch-of-earth-size-habitable-zone-planets-around> the discovery of the largest ever batch of Earth-size, habitable-zone planets around a single star, 39 light-years away. The star is TRAPPIST-1, otherwise known by its colorful name, 2MASS J23062928-0502285. The TRAPPIST (Transiting Planets and Planetesimals Small Telescope) team has discovered seven “Earth-sized” planets orbiting TRAPPIST-1, of which three are labeled as “habitable.” Just how Earth-sized and habitable are these planets? Details about the features of the seven planets and their host star were published <http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v542/n7642/full/nature21360.html> on February 22 in the British science journal *Nature*.1 *Host Star’s Features* The host star for the seven planets is far from Sun-like. In fact, it is about as far from being Sun-like as one can get. TRAPPIST-1 is ultracool. At visual wavelengths, its luminosity = 0.00000373 times that of the Sun! If it were any cooler, it would cease to be a star. Its mass = 0.080±0.009 times that of the Sun (just 83 times greater than Jupiter’s mass). This is the lowest mass a star can possess and still be a star. The Sun’s equatorial rotation rate is 25.4 days. TRAPPIST-1’s rotation rate is just 1.4 days. Ultracool, fast-rotating stars exhibit frequent huge flares that are accompanied by strong x-ray and ultraviolet radiation. The XMM-Newton x-ray space telescope has confirmed <https://arxiv.org/pdf/1605.01564.pdf> that the planets orbiting TRAPPIST-1 that reside in the liquid water habitable zone are exposed to sufficient x-ray and ultraviolet radiation from TRAPPIST-1 to significantly chemically alter and erode their primary and secondary atmospheres.2 Owing to how extremely cool TRAPPIST-1 is, the zone where liquid water could conceivably exist (the liquid water habitable zone) on the surface of a planet orbiting it is just 2.3–4.6 million miles away. For comparison, Earth orbits the Sun from 92.7 million miles away. All seven of TRAPPIST-1’s planets orbit it from less than 6 million miles away. Being that close to TRAPPIST-1, they are tidally locked to TRAPPIST-1 in the same manner that the Moon is tidally locked to Earth. That is, the gravitational pull of TRAPPIST-1 on the near side of its seven planets compared to the far side is sufficiently stronger to force one side of each of the seven planets to always face TRAPPIST-1. *Planets’ Features* This tidal locking means that the star-facing side of each planet is perpetually illuminated, whereas the opposite hemisphere is perpetually dark. Therefore, one hemisphere of the planet will be blazing hot while the opposing hemisphere will be extremely cold. Only in the twilight zone boundary between perpetual light and perpetual darkness will surface liquid water be possible. This possibility presumes that for each planet the twilight edge will not move. Given how close the planets are to one another, it is inevitable that the twilight edge on each planet will move. Thus, realistically none of TRAPPIST-1’s planets are likely to ever possess any surface liquid water. The seven planets orbiting TRAPPIST-1 are Earth-sized in the same sense that Venus and Mars are approximately Earth-sized. Compared to Earth’s mass, TRAPPIST-1’s planets possess masses = 0.85, 1.38, 0.41, 0.62, 0.68, 1.34, and unknown, respectively. It would be more accurate to say that TRAPPIST-1’s seven planets are likely to be rocky like Earth. However, to say that they are Earth-sized is a stretch. Venus is closer to Earth’s mass than six of TRAPPIST-1’s planets. The seventh planet, which is closer to Earth’s mass, is also nearest to TRAPPIST-1, just a million miles away, far too close for it to be conceivably habitable. All seven of TRAPPIST-1’s planets orbit it much closer than Mercury orbits the Sun. The periods of revolution about TRAPPIST-1 (the planet’s years) for the seven planets are 1.51, 2.42, 4.05, 6.10, 9.21, 12.35, and 20 Earth days, respectively. These orbital periods are near resonant. In the same time that the innermost planet makes eight orbits, the next three more distant planets make five, three, and two orbits. This orbital synchrony means that these four planets exert periodic gravitational influences on one another. These periodic gravitational influences rule out the possibility of life on these planets. The orbital architecture of TRAPPIST-1’s seven planets indicates that the planets formed farther away and migrated inward.3 Such migration and the proximity of the planets to one another means that they are unlikely to possess the atmospheres and the ingredients necessary for life. In one of the papers published in *Nature*, the astronomer-author wrote that “finding seven transiting Earth-sized planets in such a small sample suggests that the Solar System with its four (sub-) Earth-sized planets might be nothing out of the ordinary.”4 What apparently is very much out of the ordinary is that our solar system possesses eight planets with highly fine-tuned characteristics that make possible life on one of its planets. You can read more about these highly fine-tuned characteristics in my book *Improbable Planet*5 and in this previous blog post <http://www.reasons.org/blogs/todays-new-reason-to-believe/electric-wind-becomes-9th-habitable-zone> .

Subject:Re: [ASKC] keyholder question
Message:
Keith, Since Yahoo changed things some time ago, it is really screwed up. But, it does bring up a good point. Many times members just simply reply to an old email without changing the subject. Or they never sign their name when using an encryption or some sort of special name for an email address. I chalk it up to technology and the type of society it is creating. I routinely do mass deleting of emails of little to no interest. I am sure I have deleted messages that may have some value, but get swept away. I also like to sort and save emails that pertain to some of projects. Bad us of subject title makes this more difficult and hard to find when hunting. By the way, I was searching the Yahoo member list since I am a moderator and noticed your other address you mention. I was doing this earlier just before your identifying message came in. You must admit, it did look pretty strange. At least it didn't say you needed $10,000 to unlock you bank account for being a prince in an African country. Thanks for fessing up.

Subject:iPhone color filter
Message:
If you have the most current iOS software try this out. I was playing around on my iPhone and found a setting called color filter. It turns everything on my phone to a certain color, so I chose red and it's perfect for observing. If you have an iPhone go to settings, general, accessibility, display accommodations, then color filter and set a color. After you set a color then go to the bottom of the accessibility list and find accessibility shortcuts, it'll have a list of what your phone will do if you click the home button three times and choose color filter. Now every time you triple click your home button it'll turn your phone red and much more friendly to the dark observing nights. Hopefully that will help some of the other iOS users on those super dark nights and you just have to take out your iPhone. Colby

A good place to get some meteorites and see some other beautiful minerals and gems. The show costs $5 if you print out the coupon. Marcia and I had a great time at the Tucson show a couple of weeks ago. This show won't be quite as large and there are no outliers but it's worth a few hours of your time.

Message:
Well, I've done it again. Due to requests that I have received, I have decided to offer another new telescope class on Saturday, April 15th, starting at 5:00 PM. More information will be in the March Cosmic Messenger. Last year, we had such a good turnout, we had to hold two sessions. I can't guarantee how many we will have this year, but I CAN guarantee that I will need help. If you're interested, pizza and sodas will be provided along with the opportunity to help some folks learn how to use their telescope instead of burying it in the basement or selling it at a garage sale. Please reply back if you're interested. Thanks. Rick Henderson

Message:
That sounds like a lot of fun and is something that would make this a lot more fun for my wife and our friends/family. However, according to this eclipse map, I'd be giving up about 45 seconds of total eclipse time going there instead of my plan for Lathrop, MO. For a once in a lifetime event that lasts between a minute and a half and two and a half minutes for our area, 45 seconds is a lot in my opinion (and probably everyone who has seen one before). So this begs the question, how accurate are these maps? Are they precise down to less than ten seconds for total solar eclipse time? I'm assuming the answer is "Yes" due to the effort this person has put into it combined with measurements and observations from satellites and people on the ground documentiong previous eclipses. But I wanted to pose the question in case others are wondering. http://xjubier.free.fr/en/site_pages/solar_eclipses/TSE_2017_GoogleMapFull.html Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

Due to requests that I have received, I have decided to offer another new telescope class on Saturday, April 15th, starting at 5:00 PM. More information will be in the March Cosmic Messenger. Last year, we had such a good turnout, we had to hold two sessions. I can't guarantee how many we will have this year, but I CAN guarantee that I will need help. If you're interested, pizza and sodas will be provided along with the opportunity to help some folks learn how to use their telescope instead of burying it in the basement or selling it at a garage sale. Please reply back if you're interested. Thanks. Rick Henderson

Rick, I am interested in assisting in the event. I would come as both a designer of a telescope and as one who can help with question-answer. I have familiarity with Alt-Az systems (e.g., Dobsonian, small reflectors, or refractors). You can talk to Joe about my last Newtonian (Dob) truss design that he now owns and (hopefully) uses.

And now for yet another unsolicited opinion. Those 45 seconds should not be your main consideration. With this being your first eclipse one of the most important parts of the experience will be your surroundings and companions. Unless you are planning to waste your time trying to photograph something that can never be photographed accurately with a million dollars worth of equipment, spend your time in the shadow enjoying the experience. It will be over so fast it won't matter if it's a 30 second eclipse or a 7 minute eclipse. I have seen 6 eclipses and never spent more than 1/3 of the totality on pathetic attempts at capturing them with a camera. I recommend you spend no more than 30 seconds messing with a camera. You will regret it if you fuss with a camera more than that and waste the rest of the awesome time in the shadow. The good news is you won't have far to travel for the one in 2024. Of course after you see this one you may immediately start selling stuff to raise money for a trip to Chile for the 2019 eclipse. Eclipse chasing can be considered a type of insanity.

Subject:Winery and Eclipse Adult Venue for TSE2017
Message:
While I understand the concerns of short duration of totality and alcohol, I think we do have some responsibility to notify and the educate the public and our members of various venues, not just those specifically supported. The winery is primarily hosting its members with a limited number of spaces for the general public. If I recall correctly, they are having some special guest speakers, finger food and samples of the wine they produce there on the property. They produce select wines and not in great quantities. My personal mission is to stipulate that any place you can get to safely is the best place to be. Nor will everyone make it to highly structured and overcrowded locations like St. Joseph's event. I imaging the winery event will be low key, pleasant and relaxing. Access is controlled and the view is nice. The Warko staff is doing several events at the winery and will not be there for the eclipse. I know once my experiment group has completed the imaging for the NSO experiment, I plan to raise a glass of fermented or distilled products with my family.

Anyone interested in Solar Filter Workshop 2? As August 21 gets closer some of you may be thinking about making a solar filter for your camera or telescope. Commercial filters can be a bit spendy. One alternative is to make one your self using solar filter material from Baadar Planetarium. I keep this film on hand and sell it at cost. I currently have a full roll on hand. If a few people want to have a workshop I'll order another roll. email me if you are interested. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

I didn't state it in my last message but I was actu ually hoping you and Jackie (at a minimum) would weigh in with your opinions on the amount of total eclipse time sacrificed by attending this type of social event. I know there are others out there that have chased eclipses around the globe, but you two are the ones I recall hearing about doing over the last couple years since I joined the club. While I don't plan to mess with any sort of photography, I have a solar filter I made to fit over my Celestron AZ70 refractor telescope for sunspot viewing. I planned to set that up for friends and family to look through as the eclipse progresses. Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@yahoo.com From: "David Young youngmdavid@...

Those 45 seconds should not be your main consideration. With this being your first eclipse one of the most important parts of the experience will be your surroundings and companions. Unless you are planning to waste your time trying to photograph something that can never be photographed accurately with a million dollars worth of equipment, spend your time in the shadow enjoying the experience. It will be over so fast it won't matter if it's a 30 second eclipse or a 7 minute eclipse. I have seen 6 eclipses and never spent more than 1/3 of the totality on pathetic attempts at capturing them with a camera. I recommend you spend no more than 30 seconds messing with a camera. You will regret it if you fuss with a camera more than that and waste the rest of the awesome time in the shadow. The good news is you won't have far to travel for the one in 2024. Of course after you see this one you may immediately start selling stuff to raise money for a trip to Chile for the 2019 eclipse. Eclipse chasing can be considered a type of insanity.

This will be my first total eclipse and I don't plan on going anywhere that would cost me that big of a chunk of totality. And I don't think I would want to hang out with people who had been drinking before and during the eclipse. My plans are to be in a remote area where I can enjoy the experience.

[ASKC] wrote: That sounds like a lot of fun and is something that would make this a lot more fun for my wife and our friends/family. However, according to this eclipse map, I'd be giving up about 45 seconds of total eclipse time going there instead of my plan for Lathrop, MO. For a once in a lifetime event that lasts between a minute and a half and two and a half minutes for our area, 45 seconds is a lot in my opinion (and probably everyone who has seen one before). So this begs the question, how accurate are these maps? Are they precise down to less than ten seconds for total solar eclipse time? I'm assuming the answer is "Yes" due to the effort this person has put into it combined with measurements and observations from satellites and people on the ground documentiong previous eclipses. But I wanted to pose the question in case others are wondering. http://xjubier.free.fr/en/ site_pages/solar_eclipses/TSE_ 2017_GoogleMapFull.html Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@... ______________________________ _____ From: "Joseph Wright jos.wright@...

Subject:Solar eclipse thoughts / plans
Message:
I have ordered a 360 degree action camera to play with, and plan to set it up with a full view of wherever I end up. Then use a small scope and viewing film to view the event upto and thru totality. Let the camera get the scene, and as said earlier, look at others professional images. Anyone have any thoughts of viewing up to the totality, as to how to look up and not be blinded? Is it a problem? I don't want to spend the couple of minutes of totality looking at bright spots in my seeing. Just curious. thanks Jim

Subject:03/03 Private Night at Powell
Message:
Ron Roth, Kathy and I hosted 9 teenage girls and two parents for a 13th birthday party. What an exercise. We all had a good time. Stars played hide-n-seek with the high thin cirrus clouds. Ron could look through them to see M42. I could not see it naked eye and only guessed where it was using my laser pointer. Apparently the high cirrus clouds made a good "nebula filter". They were all very impressed with the "enhanced" nebula. Hey, they were happy so we were happy. The birthday cake was 99% ultra-high powered sugar. The girls were all old enough to recognize a sugar high and happily owned up to it. Their energy was spent using adding machine paper tape to make model solar systems, a.k.a. pocket solar systems, that I learned from Joe Wright. Good thing I brought plenty of paper tape. I got some of the longest pocket solar systems I've seen. Our posted donation was $155, but Dad was so satisfied with the event that he rounded the check to $200. It will be mailed to Twyla today.

Steve King and I went down to the DSS this morning and checked the main breakers to the entire electrical field, the bathrooms, the building, the field circuit breakers and all outlets in the field. Other than one of the GFI outlets on pole 5, all the electrical is working fine. One of us will replace the GFI next time we're down. Other than that, everything is good to go member use and for the upcoming Messier Marathon. Rick Henderson Since you're reading this then a miracle called a cell phone actually worked.

Subject:Moon occults Aldebaran this evening.... around 10:28 PM or so
Message:
I can't remember if someone posted this to our group, but.. See subject! The moon will be in the SW sky. Aldebaran is the eye of the bull in Taurus, so will be pink, and very close to the left of the crescent moon. The moon moves in front of it around 10:28-10:30 PM - tables can be off a bit, so start watching in time. It becomes visible again about 40 minutes later, but on the lit side of the moon, so it will be harder to see the reappearance. It is clear out there now.. Maybe you can see it happen! You will miss the beginning of Saturday Night Live. J Jackie B.

Message:
After our GM last Saturday, I spoke with Benjamin Gross, Associate Vice President for Collection at Linda Hall Library. He was very interested in furthering collaborations between Linda Hall and the ASKC and so I believe our discussions about opportunities in the future will continue. He also mentioned a potential interesting talk coming up this month at Linda Hall "From Galileo to Laudato Si': Why Science Needs Faith" by Brother Guy Consolmagno Sj, the Director of the Vatican Observatory and President of the Vatican Observatory Foundation. More info at: http://www.lindahall.org/event/galileo-laudato-si-science-needs-faith/ I thoroughly enjoyed William Ashworth's presentation last Saturday and this one might tie in somewhat, albeit from a different perspective.

Subject:Best scope calculator?
Message:
I have a number of scope and eyepiece calculator excel files - all of which are pretty old and none of which are completely perfect in my opinion. Magnification and true field of view are basics, but adding Barlows and Paracorrs is also needed. General telescope computations can also be useful. All the most useful information in the easiest to use format is what I am looking for. I am trying to go through computer files (and back-ups) and delete unneeded, duplicate, and confusing files. (Anybody need iomoga ZIP tapes?) So, what is the most useful down-loadable calculator you have found? Note - I am not really interested in on-line only versions - I wish to be able to play with it off-line. Easily printing out the results for multiple eyepieces and different scopes is really handy. So, what is your favorite? Thanks, Kathy Machin

Hello all, I am very happy to announce that Scott Kranz contacted me and volunteered to be the new Dark Sky Site Property Manager! Any of you who have used the DSS EVER know Scott to be one of the most frequent users and helpers of the DSS and I thank him for volunteering. Also, all of us who use the DSS should also recognize that there are often times when the duties required to keep the DSS the fine resource that it is requires help from the rest of us. In short, when Scott announces there is work to do we should all try to chip in whenever we can. Thank you again, Scott. I plan to be at the DSS both to observe AND to help. Rick Henderson

Members that I am aware attended were: The Star Lab Team Jerel Williams Kathy Williams Jackie Beucher Outside Observing John Fitzgerald Ron Roth Hope I didn't miss anyone. I was locked up in Star Lab all evening. We estimated 150 students and parents visited Star Lab. I have the presentation down to 5 minutes. We barely fit everyone into the 1.5 hour event. I have to wait several minutes to allow Star Lab to re-inflate after each group exited. We lose quite a bit of air during exiting. The outside group had a great night for observing with both Venus and the Moon being obvious targets. I suspect their student and parent numbers were similar to Star Lab. We had great teacher support both inside and out. This was very helpful for our Star Lab effort and I suspect the same held true for the outside group. The students were well behaved and I was impressed with Parent interest, at least in the Star Lab. I assume the same was true for outside observing. I have pictures of Star Lab activities that I will e-mail to Sara. Regards, Jerel Jerel Williams Jerel1948@... <mailto:Jerel1948@...>

Joe, there are so many variables and one should pay close attention to matching a camera with the telescope they intend to use it on. Also, dome of the hype on various camera brands can be misleading. I strongly advise a lot of research before buying, visiting owner forums, etc. He can e-mail me if he wants Mark at AM4L dot com

Jon Caldwell says, "Just thought you would like to see what we did with the set of Jupiter’s moons that you recently provided our club. The display was used at a recent solar viewing event and attracted quite a few interested people. The Earth globe and Earth’s moon were added to give a better sense of how our moons compare with Jupiter’s. As the display caption states, Jupiter at the same scal e would be 5-1/2 feet in diameter!

Jon Caldwell says, "Just thought you would like to see what we did with the set of Jupiter’s moons that you recently provided our club. The display was used at a recent solar viewing event and attracted quite a few interested people. The Earth globe and Earth’s moon were added to give a better sense of how our moons compare with Jupiter’s. As the display caption states, Jupiter at the same scal e would be 5-1/2 feet in diameter! We have also made good use of the Magnetic Sun materials and banner at similar solar viewing events."

NSN Webinar: The Wrong Stuff; NASA and the Mercury 13 Women Astronauts In honor of Women's History Month, join the NASA Night Sky Network on Wednesday, March 15 at 6:00pm Pacific Time (9:00pm Eastern) as Amy Shira Teitel brings us the story of an amazing group of women who qualified as astronauts in the earliest days of the space program. You can register in advance for this webinar on Zoom's registration page. <https://zoom.us/webinar/register/1924fe2682f87a428c34be5db4a05ad8> In 1962, thirteen women qualified as Mercury astronauts, but the social landscape of the 1960s kept them out of the spacecraft. About Amy Shira Teitel: Amy is lifelong space history nerd who has turned a childhood fascination with the Moon landings into a career. Over the years she's written for well over a dozen online and print outlets including Discovery News and Al Jazeera English, has appeared in a handful of TV series most notable NASA's Unexplained Files, and her first book, Breaking the Chains of Gravity, was released in 2016. She currently maintains her YouTube channel, Vintage Space, among a whole other whack of insane and awesome projects.

Ph otographers and Eclipse Chasers: Join the Eclipse MegaMovie Project! We’re excited to announce an opportunity to contribute to a first-of-its-kind citizen science project: the Eclipse Megamovie <http://eclipsemega.movie> Project! The organizers are looking to get photographs of the upcoming August 21st total solar eclipse to build a movie of images from coast to coast. The MegaMovie Project needs skilled photographers to help create the movie, as well as support the solar science opportunities presented during the eclipse itself. For more on the goals of the project, see UC Berkeley’s official press release <http://news.berkeley.edu/2017/02/21/megamovie-project-to-crowdsource-images-of-august-solar-eclipse/> . The MegaMovie organizers aim to recruit over 1,000 amateur photographers and astronomers who will be on the path of totality on August 21, 2017. Team members receive training and submit a practice image b efore the eclipse. Once you qualify, you will receive a pin to designate your status as an official photographer for the project. Your name will also be included in the credits of the final Eclipse Megamovie. If you want to participate, visit their official website <https://eclipsemega.movie> and SIGN IN to apply!

Subject:Powell Work Party -- Repair Storm Damage
Message:
Last Monday's storms left Powell relatively unscathed, except for blowing around the benches, and uprooting the large sign-board. The sign-board broke off at ground level, and only the attached electrical conduit kept it from becoming a missile aimed at the classroom. As it is, it's laying on top of the picnic tables. Some volunteers to spearhead/assist in re-setting the sign-board this weekend would be wonderful. The old uprights will need to be removed from the board, new uprights installed, and new post-holes dug, posts installed and Quik-rete poured. Also, the electrical conduit will need to be re-buried and the circuit tested. Three or four workers that can run a post-hole digger and set the posts would make the job go quickly. If you can help, please reply with your availability and we'll put together a team! Thanks, Jason Forst Director, Powell Observatory

Subject:Some Scanned ASKC slides
Message:
Was someone asking about the scanned ASKC slides a while back? We did that about a dozen or more years ago... There were several of us, each assigned to a book or two of slides. I think I had nebulae through spacecraft. I am gradually going through old CD's and tossing ancient useless back-ups and programs. I ran across some of the scan stuff I did. I am not certain if the resulting CD's are a collection of most everything scanned or just what I happened to scan or collect. From what I see, I do not have the full set of slides, if there ever was one. If this is what whoever it was is looking for, let me know and I will burn CD's or a DVD with the scanned and downloaded stuff I have. ( I remember downloading the NASA pictures if they were of higher quality than my attempts at scanned slides.) Anyhow, let me know. Thanks, Kathy Machin

0930 is the Time, on Saturday, to meet at Powell to re-set the sign board. So the volunteers are: Dana Ulmo, Ron Roth, Stuart Riley, Myself. I don’t have confirmation that David Young can assist. One or two other strong-back/strong-arm helpers would be awesome! Powell will provide lunch (Lucille’s?) Please bring, if you have, a shovel of your choice, and a garden rake. I’ll bring replacement posts, hardware, Quik-rete, etc. Hopefully we’ll have the power auger if David Young was able to reserve one, otherwise the fallback is old-fashioned post-hole digger(s). I have one, if someone can bring another that’d be grand.

It says nice things about what the ASKC did there in the past, and there is even a picture that includes Rick Henderson and Tim Kristl! It is here at the Planetarium that we will have our April General Meeting, on April 22nd. You will all get to see the new planetarium equipment in action.

Message:
Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: David & Barbara Pendleton <pkujayhawk@...> Date: Tue, Mar 21, 2017 at 4:49 PM Subject: Outreach Opportunity-4 November 2017 To: powell@... Good Day: I am David Pendleton from the Boy Scouts and I want to invite your organization to participate in the annual University of Scouting that will be held on November 4, 2017 in Kansas City, Missouri. This is an opportunity to get your group in front of approximately 500 of the most active Scouters (adults) and about 100 older Scouts who lead the almost 30,000 Scouts and over 14,000 adult volunteers in the greater KC area. You can find out more about what the Heart of America Council (HOAC) does at http://www.hoac-bsa.org/Data/Sites/1/media/finance-documents/2016-Scouting-I n-Kansas-City.pdf <http://www.hoac-bsa.org/Data/Sites/1/media/finance-documents/2016-Scouting-In-Kansas-City.pdf> . Annually, HOAC holds a training/education event to help our volunteers become better leaders and open up to them the diverse opportunities for Scouts in the area. As part of this event, we have a "Midway" where organizations can demonstrate to these Scout leaders how they can work with Scouts to their mutual benefit. My own troop has camped at the park near your observatory and then spent time using your telescope. I am sure, however, that many Scout leaders do not know about your facility and that they can camp on the city property at no cost. Your presence at our event will give you a chance to expand your audience. If you bring a telescope or other things for your table, you may draw quite a crowd. There is NO COST for groups to participate in the Midway unless your group wants to sell something. If that is the case, there is a $50 vendor fee. If you can, we would like you to provide your own table. If you do not have a table available, we will tables available. Let us know if you prefer one that is 6-foot or 8-foot long. If you need electricity to run a video or laptop, please let me know that also. For now, I just need to know if you are interested in attending our event in 2017. If you do not wish to be contacted in future years, you can let me know that so I will not bother you again. Details: Date: Saturday, November 4, 2017 Time: Set up by 11 AM and break down at 2 PM Location: Metropolitan Community College Business & Technology Campus, 1775 North Universal Avenue, Kansas City MO 64120 Cost: NONE unless you want to sell something ($50 & contact me for details) Table: Let me know your preferred size (6- or 8-foot long) Power: Let me know if you need it If you have questions, the best way to reach me is to email me at PKUJayhawk@.... My business phone is 913-684-7946 and my cell phone is 913-378-3324. H. David Pendleton Midway Coordinator University of Scouting Heart of America Council Boy Scouts of America

Thursday...... WIND! Well at least right now. It was a lot windier about two hours ago, but it is starting to calm down now. Hopefully it dies down a little more before sunset. The skies are clear and blue. There is a bit of haze along the horizon to about 5 degrees up, but otherwise clear blue skies. If nothing else, it will be a good night for binocular viewing.

How many of you have never seen Mercury before? We are currently in a great apparition of Mercury in the evening skies. I picked it up last night at about 8:15. Tonight I saw it at about 7:50. 10 degrees up and due West. Now at 8:10, it's still about 8-9 degrees high. Easy naked eye visibility.

So is anyone thinking of going down to the DSS for Messier Marathon later this afternoon or evening? I got about 4 hours in on Thursday night and a total of about 2 hours in last night and early this morning. But the forcast for tonight is getting worse and worse by the hour. If don't hear from anyone by 3:00, or the forcast doesn't improve, i'm heading for home. I'll leave a few marathons forms on the desk in the building if anyone shows up after i leave Scott Kranz "I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced."

Hi everyone. I'm buying ASKC eclipse glasses. And they are the nicest ones I've seen (and the cheapest!)

I'd stick with the ASKC Solar glasses. $20-$40 for fancier models is an investment that is well on the way to the cost of solar filters for small binoculars or telescopes that provide a much more satisfying view of Sunspots. I haven't shopped white light filters for a while, but I would recommend Orion, Seymour, and Thousand Oaks. I own both Orion and Seymour filters and am satisfied with both brands (Seymour provides a more orange color). For the eclipse, I plan to stick with my ASKC glasses and not mess with anything else. Two and a half minutes can fly by quickly. I plan to align my telescope on the Sun prior to the eclipse for something to do until eclipse time.

Hi! I think you can't go wrong with the ASKC glasses. When many of you experience this total eclipse, probably for the first time, you may very well catch "eclipse fever", and want to get the fancy wrap-around type. I have a pair made by Rainbow Symphony, who makes the best solar glasses. Most of our ASKC glasses came from them. The beauty of ours is that we paid a bit extra for the clear sleeve to store them in, which protects them and makes them safer to carry around. The wrap-around type come in a nice protective cloth bag, but..don't travel quite as well, since they don't "fold up" like regular glasses. There is no added benefit or clarity to them. You will just look quite distinguished is all. : - ) Your choice! Remember,.. Eclipse glasses are used to safely look at the sun - until the moon entirely covers it! Jackie B.

Well, lets put the forecasters to the test. The clear sky clock says that tonight is washed out at the DSS, but Accuweather says it's supposed to clear off early evening for the balance of the night. I'm going to see which one is right. I'll be at the DSS for the night. Wish me luck. Jim

I have a couple of pairs of those plastic eclipse glasses. A couple of the manufacturers sent them as samples. One pair is the "wrap around" style. The other just looks like regular sunglasses but of course has the special lenses. You are welcome to try them out. I'll try to remember to bring them to meetings so you can try them. Besides looking a bit "cooler" they don't really have much of an advantage over the paper ones. You can still see around the edges at the top and bottom. They can NOT be worn over regular eyeglasses. One disadvantage is that they look similar to regular sunglasses and might give someone the terrible idea of using regular sunglasses. I also have some cards that you just hold up in front of your eyes when you want to look at the sun. Those might be good for someone that didn't want to wear the paper ones although they could also just hold the paper glasses. I used to put #14 welders glass in windows cut in shoe boxes. I still have some of those laying around here somewhere. You can cut curves in the top and bottom to fit your face and chin and those really block out the side light. I've even thought about making a few for this eclipse using Baadar film. They would cost about $2 to get a 4" square viewing window. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Kathy and I will be at Westwood with Star Lab. We are hoping for one more ASKC member to help Kathy work with Students waiting their turn for Star Lab. She has a good method that limits the line, but can use help while I’m giving the program inside the dome. The calendar lists the following club members for this event: Ron Roth, John Fitzgerald and me. Westwood is always well attended so more ASKC volunteers will be helpful. Weather dictates this will be an inside only event. In prior years, John has set up his small scope for inside viewing of an astronomy image. Anything related to astronomy attracts students and parents. We need an eclipse display. Don’t be concerned about your knowledge level.

Subject:Re: [ASKC] DSS for Messier Marathon?
Message:
From this past weekend at the DSS..... I arrived Thursday late afternoon with fairly clear blue skies. By sunset, there was a thick haze and cloud bands around from the SW, W, NW, and N that extended about 10 degrees up. They slowly moved up to about 15 degrees and then stayed that way for at least 2 to 3 hours. This gave me plenty of time to catch Mercury in west after sunset. By 8:15pm, it was a obvious bright "star" in the low western sky. Since it has been quite a few years since I actually participated in the Messier Marathon, I figured I would see if I still "had it in me". For many of the Messiers, the Marathon is the only time I look at them. The thick haze and low lying clouds in the west wiped out M77, M74, and M33. Of the Andromeda trio, M31 and M32 were easy to pick out, but I never could convince myself that I could see M110. By 8:30, or so, the zodiacal light was blazing high in the western sky. It was easily visible extending beyond M45. I worked my way across the sky to the east. Haze gradually started to move across the sky from the west. When I reached the area around the Big Dipper, the haziness was covering most of the sky. It was still fairly easy to pick out the bright Messiers through it though. When I got to M97 & M108, I noticed a bright comet icon nearby on Guide. It showed comet Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak (41P) at magnitude 7.2. Moving the scope in that direction, a large diffuse glow was easily seen in my 7x50 finderscope. It was a beautiful site in the scope at 72x. A large diffuse glow with a condensed brighter core region. No real tail was seen but the nucleus was displaced more to the N of center, so the tail was off to the S. I continued and got through the Virgo Cluster by 10:30. By 11:00, I had hit the eastern horizon as the haze got even thicker. I put the scope cover on by 11:30. Friday night had a few large sucker holes in the west for about a hour. Long enough to pick out Mercury again. Early Saturday morning, I went out at about 2:00am and discovered the entire eastern half of the sky was clear. So I pulled out my gravity chair and 16x80 binos and scanned up and down the rising Milky Way. It's always nice to get a glimpse at the upcoming summer skies without all the summer time heat and humidity. The sky gradually filled back in by 3:30am. Saturday remained cool and drizzling most of the morning. The forecast looked horrible and radar showed some serious rain coming, so I figured if no one was coming out, I would pack it in for the weekend. I left the DSS at 3:00pm. Wildlife was everywhere..... the frogs in the pond loved the wet rainy weather. From inside my trailer parked at the far west end of the field, I could hear the croaking and peeping of the frogs. When i arrived Thursday with bright sunny skies, there were at least a dozen turtles sunning themselves on the fallen logs in the pond. Two packs of coyotes were howling back and forth all Friday night; one to the N along the river and one to the SW in the water pits tree patch. Lots of owls were heard, and I woke up Saturday morning to about a dozen turkeys grazing along the edge of the tree line at the pond. Didn't know turkeys could run so fast! It was nice to get out again, even if the weather didn't cooperate. And now some DSS items, in no particular order: - I removed the plastic, aluminum, and glass from the recycling containers and placed them in 3 separate bags. If your neighborhood recycles, grab a bag and take it home. I had no room this past weekend, but otherwise I will gradually get them all home. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE rinse out containers before putting them in the recycling bins. - the men's bathroom door was ready to fall off. Most of the door hinge screws were loose so I replaced a couple with longer screws. I also tightened up the frame that was loose with a few long screws. - Joe Wright, do you remember that your supplies from the HOASP is still at the DSS? - If you use one a microwave, PLEASE clean it out when you are done. The wall-mounted one had something spattered all over the inside. - the LED clock was blinking, so we have had a power loss at some point. Apparently it was not long enough to melt ice cubes in the freezer though - I swept the shower stalls out and put the mats up on the benches. All ready for the water heater to be reinstalled - in case you did not notice, during the HOASP last year, Kathy bought a paper towel hanger that is mounted on the water heater closet door. DO NOT leave the paper roll on the hanger when you leave the DSS. Also, DO NOT put it in the water heater closet. There was about a half roll in there and the mice have shredded it for nesting material Good observing! -Scott ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott s.kranz1@...

Lots of owls were heard, and I woke up Saturday morning to about a dozen turkeys grazing along the edge of the tree line at the pond. Didn't know turkeys could run so fast! It was nice to get out again, even if the weather didn't cooperate. And now some DSS items, in no particular order: - I removed the plastic, aluminum, and glass from the recycling containers and placed them in 3 separate bags. If your neighborhood recycles, grab a bag and take it home. I had no room this past weekend, but otherwise I will gradually get them all home. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE rinse out containers before putting them in the recycling bins. - the men's bathroom door was ready to fall off. Most of the door hinge screws were loose so I replaced a couple with longer screws. I also tightened up the frame that was loose with a few long screws. - Joe Wright, do you remember that your supplies from the HOASP is still at the DSS? - If you use one a microwave, PLEASE clean it out when you are done. The wall-mounted one had something spattered all over the inside. - the LED clock was blinking, so we have had a power loss at some point. Apparently it was not long enough to melt ice cubes in the freezer though - I swept the shower stalls out and put the mats up on the benches. All ready for the water heater to be reinstalled - in case you did not notice, during the HOASP last year, Kathy bought a paper towel hanger that is mounted on the water heater closet door. DO NOT leave the paper roll on the hanger when you leave the DSS. Also, DO NOT put it in the water heater closet.

From this past weekend at the DSS..... I arrived Thursday late afternoon with fairly clear blue skies. By sunset, there was a thick haze and cloud bands around from the SW, W, NW, and N that extended about 10 degrees up. They slowly moved up to about 15 degrees and then stayed that way for at least 2 to 3 hours. This gave me plenty of time to catch Mercury in west after sunset. By 8:15pm, it was a obvious bright "star" in the low western sky. Since it has been quite a few years since I actually participated in the Messier Marathon, I figured I would see if I still "had it in me". For many of the Messiers, the Marathon is the only time I look at them. The thick haze and low lying clouds in the west wiped out M77, M74, and M33. Of the Andromeda trio, M31 and M32 were easy to pick out, but I never could convince myself that I could see M110. By 8:30, or so, the zodiacal light was blazing high in the western sky. It was easily visible extending beyond M45. I worked my way across the sky to the east. Haze gradually started to move across the sky from the west. When I reached the area around the Big Dipper, the haziness was covering most of the sky. It was still fairly easy to pick out the bright Messiers through it though. When I got to M97 & M108, I noticed a bright comet icon nearby on Guide. It showed comet Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak (41P) at magnitude 7.2. Moving the scope in that direction, a large diffuse glow was easily seen in my 7x50 finderscope. It was a beautiful site in the scope at 72x. A large diffuse glow with a condensed brighter core region. No real tail was seen but the nucleus was displaced more to the N of center, so the tail was off to the S. I continued and got through the Virgo Cluster by 10:30. By 11:00, I had hit the eastern horizon as the haze got even thicker. I put the scope cover on by 11:30. Friday night had a few large sucker holes in the west for about a hour. Long enough to pick out Mercury again. Early Saturday morning, I went out at about 2:00am and discovered the entire eastern half of the sky was clear. So I pulled out my gravity chair and 16x80 binos and scanned up and down the rising Milky Way. It's always nice to get a glimpse at the upcoming summer skies without all the summer time heat and humidity. The sky gradually filled back in by 3:30am. Saturday remained cool and drizzling most of the morning. The forecast looked horrible and radar showed some serious rain coming, so I figured if no one was coming out, I would pack it in for the weekend. I left the DSS at 3:00pm. Wildlife was everywhere..... the frogs in the pond loved the wet rainy weather. From inside my trailer parked at the far west end of the field, I could hear the croaking and peeping of the frogs. When i arrived Thursday with bright sunny skies, there were at least a dozen turtles sunning themselves on the fallen logs in the pond. Two packs of coyotes were howling back and forth all Friday night; one to the N along the river and one to the SW in the water pits tree patch. Lots of owls were heard, and I woke up Saturday morning to about a dozen turkeys grazing along the edge of the tree line at the pond. Didn't know turkeys could run so fast! It was nice to get out again, even if the weather didn't cooperate. And now some DSS items, in no particular order: - I removed the plastic, aluminum, and glass from the recycling containers and placed them in 3 separate bags. If your neighborhood recycles, grab a bag and take it home. I had no room this past weekend, but otherwise I will gradually get them all home. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE rinse out containers before putting them in the recycling bins. - the men's bathroom door was ready to fall off. Most of the door hinge screws were loose so I replaced a couple with longer screws. I also tightened up the frame that was loose with a few long screws. - Joe Wright, do you remember that your supplies from the HOASP is still at the DSS? - If you use one a microwave, PLEASE clean it out when you are done. The wall-mounted one had something spattered all over the inside. - the LED clock was blinking, so we have had a power loss at some point. Apparently it was not long enough to melt ice cubes in the freezer though - I swept the shower stalls out and put the mats up on the benches.

Thanks Jerel! We do have solar filters for our telescopes.

I haven’t shopped white light filters for a while, but I would recommend Orion, Seymour, and Thousand Oaks. I own both Orion and Seymour filters and am satisfied with both brands (Seymour provides a more orange color). For the eclipse, I plan to stick with my ASKC glasses and not mess with anything else. Two and a half minutes can fly by quickly. I plan to align my telescope on the Sun prior to the eclipse for something to do until eclipse time. Jerel Jerel Williams Jerel1948@...

I'm buying ASKC eclipse glasses. And they are the nicest ones I've seen (and the cheapest!) I went on Amazon and discovered there are actually eclipse glasses that are like wrap around sunglasses. As you all know, the eclipse glasses should be saved as sometimes you can see sunspots if they are big enough. (I keep a few pairs in my observing bag at all times.) I was wondering if anyone had bought eclipse glasses that are like sunglasses. They seem to be $20-$40 roughly. Do any of these provide any more benefits than our ASKC glasses? Better detail of the sun? Anything? If nothing else, I thought the wrap around version will be helpful to keep light out on the sides. Any recommendations? Anything I should look out for when shopping? Anything I should avoid? Any and all suggestions welcomed. And, again, I'm still buying ASKC glasses as well. DSS Last weekend was a wash for Messier. If weather is favorable this weekend, we plan to go to the DSS for Messier and overall observing. Is anyone else thinking about going to the DSS this weekend? Thanks, Cindy Bahl cindylbahl@...

I think you can't go wrong with the ASKC glasses. When many of you experience this total eclipse, probably for the first time, you may very well catch "eclipse fever", and want to get the fancy wrap-around type. I have a pair made by Rainbow Symphony, who makes the best solar glasses. Most of our ASKC glasses came from them. The beauty of ours is that we paid a bit extra for the clear sleeve to store them in, which protects them and makes them safer to carry around. The wrap-around type come in a nice protective cloth bag, but..don't travel quite as well, since they don't "fold up" like regular glasses. There is no added benefit or clarity to them. You will just look quite distinguished is all. : - ) Your choice! Remember,.. Eclipse glasses are used to safely look at the sun - until the moon entirely covers it! Jackie B. From: ASKC@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ASKC@yahoogroups.com] Sent: Monday, March 27, 2017 8:03 AM To: yahoogroups Subject: [ASKC] Eclipse Glasses Recommendation & DSS Hi everyone. I'm buying ASKC eclipse glasses. And they are the nicest ones I've seen (and the cheapest!) I went on Amazon and discovered there are actually eclipse glasses that are like wrap around sunglasses. As you all know, the eclipse glasses should be saved as sometimes you can see sunspots if they are big enough. (I keep a few pairs in my observing bag at all times.) I was wondering if anyone had bought eclipse glasses that are like sunglasses. They seem to be $20-$40 roughly. Do any of these provide any more benefits than our ASKC glasses? Better detail of the sun? Anything? If nothing else, I thought the wrap around version will be helpful to keep light out on the sides. Any recommendations? Anything I should look out for when shopping? Anything I should avoid? Any and all suggestions welcomed. And, again, I'm still buying ASKC glasses as well. DSS Last weekend was a wash for Messier. If weather is favorable this weekend, we plan to go to the DSS for Messier and overall observing. Is anyone else thinking about going to the DSS this weekend?

Rick, For the light (and short focal length) equipment you might have in mind, you should check out the Orion Starseeker 4 goto mount. Cost $400, not bad.

Jerel and Kathy Williams staffed the StarLab at Westwood View with David Brackey assisting. Ron Roth and David Young displayed meteorites and set up a pair of telescopes for demonstration. An estimated 150 kids and 100 adults attended their science night and stopped by our displays. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

My granddaughterMaiah was showing pictures on my tablet of how the sun would look through my PST. I showed several students where I kept my "space monkeys"via my 14 inch dob. Thanks to all.

Both of my iOptron mounts work very well. I have a Cube Pro and a Mini Tower II. The Mini Tower will hold both the 90mm Solar Max AND a 125mm Mak. The smaller Cube Pro does a very nice job with a PST and a small refractor. Both have gps and a huge data base. If you take the time to level them and align them close to south and object will stay centered for hours. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

David-- Thanks for helping keep up with logged events on NSN. Currently we don't show as having logged four events in the past six months, although we have the 9th most upcoming events of any club in the country! I hope people send you the info you need, such as number of club members presenting, number of visitors, what materials were used, topics covered, and any other additional comments for any event they were involved with. The NSN has recently offered to send some toolkits of our choosing to Christina for our use at these events as well! Here is an excerpt from an email I had from NSN on club benefits of logging every event on our calendar: ----------------------------------- Logging your events where NSN resources were used qualifies your club for: quarterly prize drawings; Annual awards; your club's total on the "Stars in the Network" listing; earning new ToolKits; the Event Counter on the NSN home page; and your club's annual five-NSN-event-logs-a-year goal to remain an active club. The other benefit of logging events, internally for club members, is that it helps give club officers an idea of how many events have actually been held, the number of hours worked on those events, and who volunteered for them-as well as how many visitors you had. The logs help to serve a record of your work, and often many club newsletter editors will pull comments and photos from their club’s event logs to post in their monthly reports on what the club has been up to! ----------------------------------- Thanks again Chris Sent from BlueMail<http://www.bluemail.me/r?b=9226> On Mar 31, 2017, at 10:05 AM, "David Young youngmdavid@gmail.com [ASKC]" <ASKC@yahoogroups.com<mailto:ASKC@yahoogroups.com>> wrote: I see a number of events on the NSN calendar that have not been logged.

I have entered all events that I have been given the information on. I've asked others to give me the information but.... I've looked at NSN toolkits available to try to get some stuff to use at school science nights and other venues but the only handout I see available is a poster of Kepler exoplanets. I'd like to get another space rocks tool kit. I can see a list of some of the stuff they've sent us in the past but I don't know where any of the stuff other than the space rocks kit are. I'd like to see what new stuff is available and maybe get some updated solar stuff, black hole, and the telescope tool kits. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

I'll be at Linda Hall:-( I left a rake and a couple of shovels at Powell. If you have them please leave them in the shed out back. I'll pick them up next time I'm down there.

Hi, all. I am wondering if anyone has 2 available tickets for Thursday evening's Andrew Berry lecture, "What Darwin Didn’t Know: Evolution Since the Origin of Species"?

Subject:Science of the Solar System--free online course
Message:
I have explored this course before and may have posted info about it a year or more before. It is free, on line (though you can pay to get credit/cerfitifcate if you want). https://www.coursera.org/learn/solar-system/home/welcome But it has been recently updated with some of the more recent missions findings in the last couple of years, so I am going to participate in it again. (Something to do during the rainy season, while one-handed!) More details below: How we know what we know about the solar system and why we know it. It is the only place I found that integrates biology, physics, chemistry etc in what we have found by observational studies and onsite (robotic) studies. It includes what we know about exoplanets, too. It is designed for both the interested amateur and is also a credit course for majors at Cal-Tech. I find the best part of it is the instructor--Dr. Mike Brown, also known as the "plutokiller" (yes, his actual twitter handle) and the searcher for the Giant Planet Nine theorized (by math and physics) to be beyond the Kuiper belt. He is entertaining, and outspoken, and presents complex material in an understandable way. You can approach it from whatever level you wish. It probably takes about an hour or two a week to watch the weekly video. Each week's video is actually in smaller segments--some are 10 min and some 30, and some. an hour. So you can spread it out over the week. There is a Coursera app for smart phones and tablets. There are online forums for student to student and teacher (and/or TA) interaction. And there are suggested readings for backgorund each week with a quiz at the end of the week. It is paced over the 10 or 12 weeks, so you need to keep up. It got me interested in pursuing the Astronomy League's Solar System observing award almost two years ago, which I am now halfway through. (A little Jupiter, Saturn and asteroid observing this summer should finish me up). Hope you will joint me. This is the first week, first quiz due 4/9 before he goes to the next weeks video. Enjoy! Denise "Lefty"

Dave, I bought a Celestron Evolution SCT 8-inch a couple of years ago. Celestron remarkets SkySafari as their SkyPortal. It can drive the telescope, track satellites and find a library of celestial objects. The one time big enchilada was The Sky, from Software Bisque. It had much the same capability from a laptop computer or desktop, but might now operate on the iPad. I don't know. Good luck in your search.

Mercury was quite visible tonight in the clear early evening western sky. I found it from Shawnee Mission Park near the tower (which I found out is now closed with the first flight of stairs removed).
Heading west it was bright above the horizon, but set quickly by about 9 pm.Joe Alburty

How many of you have never seen Mercury before?
We are currently in a great apparition of Mercury in the evening skies.
I picked it up last night at about 8:15. Tonight I saw it at about 7:50. 10 degrees up and due West.
Now at 8:10, it's still about 8-9 degrees high.
Easy naked eye visibility.

Yesterday afternoon while I was looking for AR2648, even though I wasn't really expecting to see it . I did find an interesting feature . It wasn't there a few minutes ago . From my view, it's kind of a faded black, and shaped like part of a Night Crawler ( worm to those that don't know it) . I know magnetic filaments are thin . If anyone has any ideas as to what it might be, write me . Danny Crump dcrump99@yahoo.com

Yes. Simply sawed off above head level. Not accessible. No sign explaining anything. This is recent, though, because I saw Mercury in the west from the top of the tower last year.

Some of you may want to attend! JACKIE B. Subject: JO CO SCIENCE CAFE - Wednesday, April 12th, 2017 - Coach's Bar & Grill - 1 blk so of 135th and Grandview, Overland Park, Ks. #1 Happy Spring, everyone! This month, we are lucky to have Dr. Daniel McIntosh, of UMKC. The Astronomical Society has had a great relationship with Dr. Dan over the years, as we operate the university’s observatory, the Warko Observatory, which is on top of Royall Hall on the UMKC Campus. I have heard Dr. Dan talk a few times, so I know you will enjoy him. Here is the info: _________________________________________ Program Title -- Hubble's Legacy: Reflections on the Past, Present & Future of U.S. Astronomy abstract: In April 1990, NASA launched the most well-known scientific instrument in history. As an astronomer, educator and U.S. citizen I have reflected on more than 25 years of the Hubble Space Telescope. I will describe the legacies of this great space observatory, illuminate who Edwin Hubble was and why this telescope was named after him, and explain how astronomical science was different in his time compared to today. I will finish by examining the questions "how much did it cost to build the space observatory and was it worth it?". The answers to these questions relate to the future of science in the U.S. Bio: Dr. McIntosh is a Distinguished Associate Professor of Astronomy and Astrophysics. Since joining the University of Missouri-Kansas City in August 2008, Prof. McIntosh has established a vibrant astronomy program, founded the UMKC Galaxy Evolution Group, and developed many educational innovations dedicated to actively engaging students from all backgrounds in positive and impactful learning experiences related to science. In 2016, he was awarded the UM System President's Award for Innovative Teaching. Dr. McIntosh is also an expert on the physical processes underlying the origins and growth of galaxies - a central feature of cosmic history. Much of his research over the last 16 years has employed data collected by the Hubble Space Telescope. ____________________________________________________ Remember…. You can arrive early (5:30) and have a nice dinner there at Coach’s. I will be there. Please send me any of your ideas about future speakers for the Science Café, OK? See you Wednesday… Jackie Jackie Beucher Treasurer, Kansas Citizens For Science Manager, Jo Co Science Café 913-522-8799 (cell)

Subject:Eclipse write-ups
Message:
Last year, I volunteered at Powell observatory on a public night sometime in June. When I arrived, around 5 p.m., there were some tables set up with a few things on them such as models of planets apparently from a demo held earlier in the day. One item I noticed in particular was a stack of copies that looked like nicely done write-ups on the upcoming August 21st, 2017 solar eclipse. They showed maps of the St. Joe area and the local region with roads labeled giving directions to the airport and, perhaps, additional viewing sites around Kansas City. These were just B&W copies (not color brochures) and so I don't guess they necessarily put out by the ASKC. At some point the tables were taken down and the items put away. I did not think about the copies that evening assuming they would be available at another time. I haven't seen them since, but would like to have some since they were so well done. Does anyone know about these and who made them? Joe Alburty

I didn't find anything like that when searching our group's documents page, just this (if it doesn't get stripped out of this message). However, I don't trust Yahoo's search capabilities.

It may have been two pages. From your response, though, I am now certain it was not ASKC sponsored. Not a huge deal at this point anyway.
It might be helpful to have an update on the various "recommended" viewing sights close to KC. Perhaps that's forthcoming also.
Thanks all.

Subject:Fred Espenak Event Report
Message:
Wow, we have about 225 people attending the talk last night. The center section of the lecture hall looked completely full and the sides were quite populated.Marcia and David Young, Jackie Beucher and Rita Wright were busy selling solar glasses to the group as well as handing out free eclipse modeling kits to teachers and students. A big thanks to UMKC's Facilities Department for blocking off the top level of the parking garage and turning off the lights. It was quite dark up there. An even bigger thanks to John Fitzgerald for setting his telescope up for visitors to view some targets. Rita and I were Fred's charioteers and hosted him around the city. I arranged a tour of Linda Hall Library's Rare Book room and he was amazed. He commented that we was dozing off during the drive from KCI to lunch, but enter the book room energized him. He was unaware of the library and its marvelous collection. In fact, odds are, he will be back. He is giving all of his material regarding Solar Eclipses and filling in gaps of their collections. So, I am confident in the future they will be hosting him. Thanks everyone. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Joe, I am usually available during the day so let me know if they need to move any of the equipment or sheds. I am thinking about the area around the 16" that is uneven and makes the ladders unsteady. I still have a parking pass that was given to me last year and will gladly use it for the cause.

Message:
During yesterday's work party/training session at Powell a number of projects were performed or started. One of the projects was sorting through the drawers. While John Fitzgerald fixed all of the locks so they won't spin, Jason went through a bunch of the "stuff". We boxed up a number of useful duplicates to send to WARKO and another batch of good stuff that we see no need to have at Powell. The items are intended to be declared as surplus at tonight's board meeting and offered for sale to ASKC members before being offered to non members via Cloudy Nights or other venues. I will upload photos of these items to the Yahoo egroup file are in a new folder called Surplus Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Subject:telescopes
Message:
I have acquired a couple of small telescopes. One is a little refractor and not worth much but a kid might play with it. If no one wants it it's headed for the scrap heap. The other one is one of the telescopes we built in one of the workshops I did in the 90's. I think its one of the 4.25" mirror units with the DOB mount made out of plywood and a well casing tube. These little scopes are quite portable, easy to use and have decent images. Suggestions solicited. Would this be useable at the DSS. Keep in mind there is already a seldom used 16" down there but it is a bit harder to roll outside. This thing can be carried easily. Should this be part of the loaner telescope fleet? Should we just surplus it and sell it for a song? Should we polish it up and give it away? Ideas please? Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

In the April C. Messenger, it was announced that a former member was opening up his farm near Higginsville for the Eclipse on August 21st, inviting members for a Pot Luck dinner that day as well.

Message:
Many moons ago the city closed down part of the park road for repairs. To have access to the observatory we cleared a path through the tree line to the east. In order to keep people from getting tangled in the brush Joe and I installed a low voltage lighting system and lined the path with the lights. I still have them. I don't want them. I'm going to get rid of them one way or the other within a week. If you have a use for them for a pathway or accent lighting, email me back. Free to ASKC members. They will hit Craiglist tomorrow and the trash next Wednesday if they are still around here. I also have an ionic air cleaner that is leaving soon if anyone is interested.

David, I think you mean “Santa Fe Trail Middle School, 1100 N. Ridgeview Rd, Olathe, KS 66061”. There is not a Trailridge School in Olathe, although “Trail” is in the name of Santa Fe Trail and “Ridge” is in the street name. It is easy to get confused with all the “Trail” “Ridges” in Johnson County, KS. There is one in Overland Park and also, one in Gardner. I get Trailwood and Brookridge in Overland Park mixed up all the time. Confusion is my middle name. I’ll bring my Solar scope. I’ll be there at 5:30 for setup.

Message:
Please join me at Powell Observatory on Saturday and Sunday, 22 and 23 April, 1100- 1600, for Spring Cleaning of the observatory. Various cleaning and 'sprucing up' projects will be undertaken so that we can present a pleasant facility. On the inside; Counters to be cleaned and organized, floors cleaned, thorough vacuuming and dusting, painting in the kitchen and classroom, minor carpet repairs in the dome, cleaning the 30" and LCT. If there are enough volunteers, we can consider fresh paint on all the walls of the classroom on Sunday. Outdoors, spreading weed-preventive, racking some rocks around to cover low spots, and cleaning up the east-side of the property (sort/remove various supplies and materials, etc) None of these are particularly large projects, but they all need doing.

Subject:Powell Observatory -- Interior Paint Survey
Message:
Do you have an excellent eye for color? Do you enjoy painting? If so, then please keep reading. In order to present a cleaner, more modern appearance, the staff of the observatory is considering changing the color of the classroom, kitchen, and restroom walls, to include painting the woodwork and cabinets, and new laminate on the counters. One suggestion is is light-ish blue, trending toward grey, with a darker hue in the same palate for the woodwork and a complementing color for the laminate. Another is a light grey, with, again, a darker hue for the woodwork and cabintry, and dark grey, possibly black?, for the laminate. Constructive suggestions are solicited. Thanks, Jason Forst Director, Powell Observatory

Hi all, I just spoke with Jason and the Saturday, April 22nd, spring cleaning won't start until 13:00 or 1:00 PM on Saturday. I had reserved Powell for Saturday morning for an astrophotography processing session and had not copied Jason on the reservation. So please, all the worker elves, do not plan on arriving before 1:00 PM on Saturday. It will be much appreciated. Jason has also approved the time delay. Sunday's work party will still start at 11:00 AM. Thank you everyone.

Message:
Jason, First, cleaner is not that hard to do but modern is a much different matter. For example, cabinets can be very difficult to paint over as they can have a coating on them that is makes very difficult for them to have a good appearance without first removing the coating. The cabinets are the hard ones here. As for the use of black, while it is commonly used today there are also good reasons why it is often much cheaper. Black can give a very harsh impression and other a cheaper price it can also give one the impression they are at a funeral. In other words not very friendly. Simply put, DO NOT USE BLACK!!! A very light blue for the walls would be good. However, when choosing the color when you think it is light enough get it even lighter!! For the woodwork and cabinets, use an off white. For the laminate, you may choose an extremely light green. Note, these colors are so light it should be hard to tell what they are at a glance. One can tell they are different as well as very lively. You may think this is strange, but I have seen a house that used something like this and it was far more impressive that your usual colors than one finds today!! Grey tends to be a sad color thus I would be very careful before I would use it for a public place. What might a light grey look like? "THE CAT" is actually light grey. You might consider a beige for the woodwork and the cabinets. The laminate could be Actually, refinishing the cabinets would be the best choice, but would be more difficult. Remember "THE CAT" has lots of soft contracts both inside and out. Try to actually match the colors at the paint store and note it may take much longer than you think! Joel Falk From: "jason@... [ASKC]" <ASKC@yahoogroups.com> To: askc@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, April 19, 2017 8:49 PM Subject: [ASKC] Powell Observatory -- Interior Paint Survey Do you have an excellent eye for color? Do you enjoy painting? If so, then please keep reading. In order to present a cleaner, more modern appearance, the staff of the observatory is considering changing the color of the classroom, kitchen, and restroom walls, to include painting the woodwork and cabinets, and new laminate on the counters. One suggestion is is light-ish blue, trending toward grey, with a darker hue in the same palate for the woodwork and a complementing color for the laminate. Another is a light grey, with, again, a darker hue for the woodwork and cabintry, and dark grey, possibly black?, for the laminate. Constructive suggestions are solicited.

Jason, I will be there on Saturday after the Imaging class at Powell. I am bringing some primer *white* color for the kitchen and other surfaces to be painted. The primer is both for ceiling and for sealing areas before applying a final color finish. I have about three hours to spare on Saturday, as I need to meet with D. Young at Gottlieb Planetarium at the GM. Give me a call if you can. Stuart Riley 785 727 5054

Subject:Astronomy Day at Union Station, Saturday, April 29th
Message:
Hi all, Just a last roundup request of anyone who would be interested in helping at Astronomy Day at Union Station per the subject line. The schedule is to start at 11:00 AM and to until 2:00 or 3:00 PM, depending on the crowd. This is a rain or shine event. Right now we will be doing telescopes outside between the planetarium and the west parking garage entrance to Union Station. We will also be selling solar eclipse t-shirts and eclipse glasses, along with handing out ASKC promo material. This would be inside, probably close to the entrance of the Gottlieb Planetarium. If you have meteorites, telescopes, astrophotography, etc. or just would like to help, please reply back to this email. Also, those who have already volunteered, please confirm again just to make sure I have my volunteer list correct. We are also planning on selling eclipse t-shirts and glasses and could Thanks! Rick

Subject:Re: [ASKC] Where is the meeting?
Message:
Yeah, I realized my mistake. We arrived. Saw several college students all dressed up, walking around in the building. (No clue what that was about.) Then one middle-aged gentleman showed up. Asked if he was there for the meeting. And he was. Asked if he knew about any changes. He didn't. I sent out that email.Then Leif suggested checking the CM. So searched through my email for it. Then was like 'Jeez, I'm an idiot.'. Like you said, it was on the first page. The guy said he often attended meetings but wasn't a member. I let him know the meeting wouldn't be in the building that night so he took off. I really wish we had paid attention. I was hoping to pay you and pick up the glasses (now I have to explain to all my friends why they had to rush to give me their money but now have to wait a month to get their glasses. But they'll be fine. The eclipse isn't until August.)But we also missed the planetarium!!!!! That's what we get for not reading the CM closely!!!

Just an FYI. Got to the DSS yesterday around noon. The Wifi wouldn't work. Error message said "No Internet Access". Played with it for about a half an hour and it started working. Worked all afternoon, then had the same problem last night. Still a problem this AM, so I rebooted the router. It worked for about 20 minutes, then quit again. Had to leave after that, so don't know what's going on currently. Jim

Has many safety features to protect against crashes and fly awaysVaries according to what obstructions are between you and the drone. Trees, hills, buildings will affect the range. The advertised range is one half a mile. You can purchase a small attachment that focuses the signal forward to extend the range. I tested it and had good results on a wide open field with no obstructions. Without the attachment I got the drone to 3200 feet before signal was lost. With the attachment I got it to 6000 feet, which is kind of scary having it that far away. Fortunately, the drone will automatically return to your location if signal is lost. It has several safety features to help prevent crashes and flyaways. Even with obstructions, it will go to 1400 feet without losing signal. On Tue, Apr 25, 2017 at 7:54 AM, Scott s.kranz1@...

Subject:Warko Repair Update and IMP and the Stars Live Ensemble
Message:
I received an update today concerning the repairs of the roof deck. The wheels are moving pretty quick on this and they have sent the Department of Physics and Astronomy an estimate. It looks like the cost will be split by the School of LAS and the Facilities department. Until the repairs are completed, we will setup personal observing equipment on the top of the parking structure. If you were there for Fred Espenak's talk, the school did a wonderful job. This includes barricading the ramp up to the fight (5th) level and turning off the lights. The lights are scheduled to off until midnight. It was pretty dark up there. To kick off the public season, we will be treated to live music from UMKC musicians. So, please spread the word and bring your chairs. Rita and I will be pulling our astronomy trailer with gear, including a 16" scope. There is a lot going on, so don't miss out. Bring your own scope and give a hand or knock a few targets off the Urban Award. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Rita and I will be pulling our astronomy trailer with gear, including a 16" scope. There is a lot going on, so don't miss out. Bring your own scope and give a hand or knock a few targets off the Urban Award. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Rita and I will be pulling our astronomy trailer with gear, including a 16" scope. There is a lot going on, so don't miss out. Bring your own scope and give a hand or knock a few targets off the Urban Award. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

The wheels are moving pretty quick on this and they have sent the Department of Physics and Astronomy an estimate. It looks like the cost will be split by the School of LAS and the Facilities department. Until the repairs are completed, we will setup personal observing equipment on the top of the parking structure. If you were there for Fred Espenak's talk, the school did a wonderful job. This includes barricading the ramp up to the fight (5th) level and turning off the lights. The lights are scheduled to off until midnight.

I have been asked by the local library to give a talk on the eclipse. Would it be possible for me to get some of the tri folds the club has printed so I can pass them out at the talk? The library has also offered to print them too, if I can come up with the file to print from. Thanks Mike Myer Humboldt, KS.

Subject:Astronomy Day @ Union Station
Message:
Ron Roth, Jackie Beucher, Jim Ketchum, Lou Gehring (and grandson Liam) and I hosted a pretty good crowd at Union Station for as very, very soggy Astronomy Day. It appears that the long stretch of rainy weather we've been having drove a lot of folks to Science City. I would estimate we talked to at least a couple hundred people. Jackie did a very good job of telling folks about the upcoming eclipse and also managed to sell several pair of eclipse glasses. Ron brought his NexStar telescope and showed views of a football player billboard outside. Jim, Lou, Liam and I interacted with the crowd, gave away NASA promotional items, ASKC and eclipse brochures and kept an eye on David Young's meteorite collection that he loaned to us while he and Joe Wright were attending a CATE meeting in Columbia, MO. I think we were all amazed at how many people still don't know there is an total solar eclipse in August. Most of them were surprised, but very interested in learning more. There was still a significant percentage of people who just seemed indifferent. And I guess that was probably even more amazing. Anyway, many thanks to those who helped. And perhaps someday we will have some clear skies again. Rick Henderson

Let's make the first public night (and every public night, for that matter) enjoyable for everyone: the team members and the public! Please come on down and set up your scopes in the observing field, and share with the public. OR, pitch in and assist the team! On Saturday, I'll be at Powell from around 1330-1400 or so, until late in the evening. There are a few last-minute things to do, some light house-keeping (vacuuming, mopping, cob-web clearing), etc. Stocking of the fridge with drinks and snacks.

Subject:Predicted Congession from MegaMovie Scientists
Message:
I have had an interesting discussion with Bonnie Crystal GSFC and SDO Phillip Denix on what to expect in or around the Eclipse 2017 date. First, I have repeated some Google maps with the North America predicted congestion factors as links. https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1lf1zQElZCKW8f0gTbY_b06wIfA4 https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1lf1zQElZCKW8f0gTbY_b06wIfA4 https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1lf1zQElZCKW8f0gTbY_b06wIfA4&ll=39.24350940219914%2C-101.53097025&z=4 https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1lf1zQElZCKW8f0gTbY_b06wIfA4&ll=39.24350940219914%2C-101.53097025&z=4 https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1lf1zQElZCKW8f0gTbY_b06wIfA4&ll=39.24350940219914%2C-101.53097025&z=4 https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1lf1zQElZCKW8f0gTbY_b06wIfA4 https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1lf1zQElZCKW8f0gTbY_b06wIfA4&ll=39.24350940219914%2C-101.53097025&z=4or https://goo.gl/p7yW3W https://goo.gl/p7yW3W Bonnie said, the Great American Solar Eclipse of 2017 offers a unique opportunity for millions of people in North America to experience a total eclipse. Due to the unparalleled popularity of this event, it will precipitate a temporary mass migration targeting the narrow 45 mile wide swath of totality. Megamovie photographers who started planning many months in advance may find ourselves faced with last minute changes, due to unexpected socially-generated issues. The human stampede will begin around E-minus 48 hours. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-qjlPxv9hxLc/WQuLaBJ4YAI/AAAAAAAACAE/GFR2qHjIZZ44AlDCQ4Kqj-ceMrmqgGb7QCLcB/s1600/2017_Solar_Eclipse_Logistics_Calendar_threat_levels.jpg Solar Eclipse logistics calendar There are a very limited number of interstate and state highways crossing the total eclipse path: https://goo.gl/p7yW3W https://goo.gl/p7yW3W https://goo.gl/p7yW3W https://goo.gl/p7yW3W https://goo.gl/p7yW3W Map of Predicted 2017 Solar Eclipse Highway Traffic Density (click to view Google Map) https://goo.gl/p7yW3W In areas near high population density, the interstate highways and state highways are expected to see high levels of traffic. The eastern area between Nashville Tennessee and Charleston South Carolina is expected to see the maximum traffic. Also, the coastal area of Oregon is expected to experience maximum traffic. Logistics problems that could unfold: Travel - Over-booked airlines and rental cars; Unpredictable cancellations Traffic - Gridlock, traffic jams, and accidents on small roads in rural areas Infrastructure - Local public facilities aren't built for such a once-in-a-century event Lodging - High cost over-booked hotels, BnBs, RV parks, and campgrounds; stranded travelers; unnotified cancellations Food - Long lines at restaurants; sell-outs on popular items at convenience stores and supermarkets Communications - Cell sites in some areas prone to overload; spotty coverage in some eclipse areas of western states Weather - 2017 is an abnormally wet weather year; unpredictable clouds Eleventh Hour Unknowns - Weather may cause many to change plans; few are prepared for everything Observation Site Changes - Site movements; impromptu observation sites on the side of a road Airports expected to experience increased eclipse travel: Charleston Charlotte Atlanta Chattanooga Nashville St Louis Kansas City Denver Salt Lake City Boise Portland Of course, the science in this is prediction and risk analysis, not that a weather consultant would give us any better clue.

Kathy, It was a great night. Thank you. It was a team effort with staff (Carol and Charles Kennedy, Armida and Dale Olson, Stuart Riley, David Young and Rita Wright), plus member Danny Krump who setup telescope for the 120 or so guests. It was also very nice of Ronnell Williams of KCTV5 who wanted to do story on the opening for us. As some of you may have seen, he and the videographer even helped to unload the 16" for piece. I am sure with this weather, Powell is going to have a great time tonight. The team on duty would welcome members bringing their telescopes down for the evening.

Subject:Powell Public Night TONIGHT! Crowds expected!
Message:
Hello All! Looks like a glorious day and evening are in store for us! What a terrific start for the season! Experience shows that nice days cause large turnout at Powell. Team Four will be on duty tonight. If you can, please come to Powell with your telescope, etc. to share from the observing field, or just bring your self as assistance for the team. Also, I plan to arrive around 1400 or so to finish some minor cleaning and picking-up before the evening gets underway. If you can spare a few hours late this afternoon, your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Particularly, the LCT needs cleaned, swept, and generally 'picked-up'. Thanks!

I agree with David’s report and I will add my thoughts to his. David had a great solar scope setup near the entrance, while Gil and Kathy had their scopes next to mine. Gil put his Hydrogen-Alpha Filter optimized to show the fringe prominences very well. Skies were clear, low humidity, and generally a great night for viewing. Visitors started to arrive around 7:30 PM and slowly increased to 8:30 PM. Then it was dark and the cool from the night had set in. I was viewing at first the Sun with white light filter and noticed a small, as in tiny, sunspot about the 7-O’clock position. Later, I switched to the terrestrial and lunar viewing. Pete Jefferies and I spent a goodly amount of time finding Jupiter, but it was nearly invisible at first. About 8 PM, the planet had given us a hint and almost all the field telescopes and LCT slew to Jupiter. Pete, with his excellent eyes, spotted it and then was one of the first to highlight the four moons and banded planet. Stuart Not much in the way of visitors seeing through all the telescopes, but the members and those on the field had a chance to see through each other’s telescope.

Subject:72" Leviathan of Parsonstown (colorized historical photo)
Message:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/jenoscolor/34398105902/ From wikipedia: Leviathan of Parsonstown is the unofficial name of the Rosse six-foot telescope. This is a historic reflecting telescope of 72 in (1.8 m) aperture, which was the largest telescope in the world from 1845 until the construction of the 100-inch (2.5 m) Hooker Telescope in 1917. The Rosse six-foot telescope was built by William Parsons, 3rd Earl of Rosse on his estate, Birr Castle, at Parsonstown (now Birr in County Offaly, Ireland).Construction and DesignParsons improved the techniques of casting, grinding and polishing large telescope mirrors from speculum metal, and constructed steam-powered grinding machines for parabolic mirrors. His 3 ft (90 cm) mirror of 1839 was cast in smaller pieces, fitted together before grinding and polishing; its 1840 successor was cast in a single piece. In 1842, Parsons cast his first 6 ft (1.8 m) mirror, but it took another five casts, before he had two ground and polished mirrors. Speculum mirrors tarnished rapidly; with two mirrors, one could be used in the telescope while the other was being re-polished. The telescope tube and supporting structure were completed in 1845.The mirror was 5 in (13 cm) thick and weighed almost 3 tons. This required a mirror cell to support and to prevent the mirror deforming under its own weight. The length of the tube and mirror box is about 54 ft (16.5 m); including the mirror it weighed about 12 tons. The tube is supported at the mirror end by a "universal joint", a hinge with two axes, which allows the tube to be inclined through a large range of altitude and also to be turned through a limited range of azimuth. The azimuth range is limited to about one hour by the supporting walls that flank the tube on its eastern and western sides. The walls are 23 ft (7 m) apart, 40 ft (12 m) high, and 71 ft (21.5 m) long. A chain and counterweight keeps the telescope in balance, another chain with a winch controls the altitude. A rack and pinion beam underneath the tube controls the azimuth. This beam is connected to the eastern supporting wall, where it can move on a circular iron arc to allow the telescope to change altitude.The tube is of the Newtonian design with the eyepiece on its western side. At low altitude, the observer accesses the eyepiece from a wooden gallery that spans the distance between the walls and can slide up and down guides to follow the telescope in altitude. A cage on the gallery moves sideways to reach the eyepiece at different azimuth. At high elevation, curved galleries on top of the western wall are used, which can be moved across the wall to follow the telescope in azimuth.OperationThe purpose of the telescope was to re-visit the nebulae in the catalogues of Charles Messier and John Herschel. These catalogues list star clusters as well as nebulae, and the question was whether the latter were merely unresolved star clusters or genuinely nebulous regions of space. If resolved into stars they might be the first galaxies to be identified as such. Parsons discovered that several nebulae had a spiral structure, suggesting "dynamical laws". The most notable spiral nebula observed by Parsons was Messier 51, which he resolved into stars.Drawing of the Whirlpool Galaxy by 3rd Earl of Rosse in 1845 based on observations using the Leviathan After William Parsons (the 3rd Earl of Rosse) died in 1867, the 4th Earl (Laurence Parsons) continued to operate the six-foot telescope. From 1874 to 1878, J. L. E. Dreyer worked with the telescope and began the compilation of his New General Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars.Although the 4th Earl built a smaller 3 ft equatorial in 1876, the six-foot telescope remained in use until about 1890. After his death in 1908, the telescope was partly dismantled, and in 1914, one of the mirrors with its mirror box were transferred to the Science Museum in London. The walls remained. The tube, second mirror box, and universal joint survived. Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

I have never had a chance to visit or volunteer at Warko for a public night and was thinking about coming tonight to help out (if needed) or just enjoy a nice night as a guest. I know space is limited on the roof, but are members welcome or encouraged to bring their own telescopes to set up like we do at Powell? If so, let me know the best way to park, enter the building to get upstairs, and where to set up. I have an 8" dob, so it doesn't take up too much space and is easy to set up.

We are setting up on the roof if the parking garage. Drive up , move a database and park on the west side with the others. Pit the database back so the public doesn't try to drive in that area.

Perfect. I recall now hearing members mention setting up their scopes on the garage top level in the past.

Subject:DSS Heads up
Message:
Just a heads up for anyone going to the DSS for the next New Moon. I was there today and can report that a small dead tree has sagged towards the gravel driveway near the entrance gate. A small 3" limb is now hovering over the drive at about seven foot off the ground. If you are pulling a camper or driving an RV, you will have to pull almost all the way off the gravel to get around it. Regular cans and trucks wont have a problem. You might want to take a hand saw with you. It's reachable from the ground. I'm putting one in my RV, just in case. Jim

We actually had quite a few late arrivals including a group who came after the gate was closed. When I left around 11:00 we had counted 60+ and there was a group just arriving in the parking lot. Speculation was high school graduations were keeping people away. It was a beautiful night and usually would have been really busy. We saw numerous satellites, a flair, Chinese space station, tumbling rocket body and a meteor.....

I thought someone had done that. We had about 65 people come out…. Still very light. We thought it was due to graduations and Mother’s Day Weekend. Jason will remember who all was there… I never seem to get that right…. But…. Denise Moser came out and sold some t-shirts and solar glasses. Twyla was at the gate with Nancy Reuss. Nick was down there, too, as was son Donald and daughter Jennifer. John Fitzgerald, and Pete Jaffries were out in the field. John Benz rode his Harley out there. It was a good night, though! I did the program 3 times, although twice would have been enough – but folks straggled in.

If you are pulling a camper or driving an RV, you will have to pull almost all the way off the gravel to get around it. Regular cans and trucks wont have a problem.

Message:
Okay folks, I need some help. I am using TheSky and Stellarium to plan an observing run and challenge. This will be for telescopes in this range of diameters:12", 24" 32" and 61" ....for real. I am considering the 61" for some those spectacular objects that you need a big scope and items like the Whirlpool Galaxy just for grins. Naturally, my first thoughts would be the Messier List. Anyone out there want to toss a suggestion my way? Location is in the Southwest at 9,000ft at the end of June for four nights. One target for the 61" will be Pluto! Most will be visual observations, but we may get in some imaging. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

What size field of view will you be getting with the 61" ? Do you want difficult-challenging? What level are the observers? Experienced (you) or others? All night observing sessions or more limited time range? The Black-eye galaxy (M64) is one of the better Messiers in a big scope but may be getting a bit too low in the West. (The dark dust lane shows well in really large scopes.) There are a couple of Abell Galaxy clusters that are very concentrated and rather rich - a lot of galaxies in one field of view. I seem to recall something in Corona Borealis? I will do some looking for the one I remember but do not know designation of. Will try to think of more....

I just heard that Doug Kniffen passed away on the 13th. It was very sudden. There will be a memorial service for him in Warrenton, Mo., this coming Tuesday. If you want to know more, let me know. Check out the Martin Funeral Home in Warrenton - list of obits. Doug has been very active in astronomy over the years. Within the region, he was best known for advocating the use of GREEN lights when doing observing, instead of red ones. I have asked for his mailing address, so let me know if you need it, too.

I guess "bright" is a relative term. I was at the DSS last night and was able to see it, but it's far from bright. If you don't have a large telescope with high power, it's pretty hard to see. Plus, you need to know exactly where it's located. Otherwise, it's an exercise in futility. Still, was fun to pi down once I had it pinpointed. Was a beautiful night last night. Great seeing and transparency to start. Seeing deteriorated after midnight. Was able to see the central star in the Ring Nebulae pop in and out of view with averted vision. Was still clear at 3:00 AM, but woke up to the sound of rain drops at 7:30 AM.. Fortunately got everything put away before any serious rain hit. Was nice to get some observing time in.

Hmmmm someone else asked me about viewing Omega Centauri, but no idea who it was. From the DSS, this weekend, Omega Centauri peaks in the south at 10:23pm. By June New Moon weekend, it will be too late. It peaks at 8:33pm with the Sun still above the horizon. Not sure about Arizona, but from the DSS there is only about a 45 minute window to see it.

Subject:DSS info and stuff...
Message:
My family went down to the DSS yesterday (Sunday) and mowed the observing field and around the building. I took my own lawn mower down, so with two of us going, it only took 4 hours. NOTE that you should not bring anything down to the DSS to store in the building unless you clear it with me or Darrick first. It is not the DSS self-storage facility. Also, if someone is going to break onto the property with a bolt cutter, it doesn't matter which link in the gate chain the padlock is on. PLEASE shackle the padlock on the end links. It makes it so much easier to flip the padlock up to see the combination dials. Be careful driving on the driveway. At the south culvert, the drive is starting to wash out on the east side of the road. I have put driveway markers up to warn you to move over. Hope to have that filled back in soon. Dark Skies to You! -Scott

Scott, Concerning Omega Centauri, I asked you about viewing it. If skies are clear Stellarium shows this coming weekend to be the time.

Message:
I just realized that I never sent a report to you all! Last Saturday night, it did clear off, and the folks that did come down had some great views of Jupiter and a few other things. I think there were around 60 people, but we took in $875.00 for the night. Some of that was in t-shirt sales ($120 or so). It was a good night, considering all the rain we've had lately. Jim Ketchum came down with his telescope, and set up in the field. Jason and Twyla Forst were there, as was David Young. Much thanks to Team Two members: Dan Johnson, David Brackey, John Fitzgerald, Eric Agan; Steve King, and..Rick Henderson, who was there for Ed Bruns. Everything went smoothly! I hope the crowds pick up some more, though. I think our attendance was down due to it being so cloudy all day long.

Hi. I really don’t have a clue as to how many people came, as that is not on the report we ran. (I heard that number 60-ish once.) I was inside most of the evening, and so… not sure on the head count. We did have two rooms full of boy scouts, in addition to the public (3 programs), so that could make the grand total higher. We ended up with $875.00 total received in 34 transactions. That is all I know for sure from the report. Jackie B.

Yes, Chris, the Clover Point-of-sale does track every transaction. And I believe Rick pulled that report in order to get info to close. Just because there was X $ does not mean there was x/6 visitors. There is a mix of visitors, (adult[$6], youth[$4], and child[$0]), merchandise, donations, and perhaps memberships. The point of sale system captures every transaction. The problem is trying to infer results based on very thin assumptions. You cannot do that now that merchandise, snacks, donations, gate, etc are tracked. Also a mix of cash, credit card, and debit card.

Ahh that makes sense. I was hoping we were putting in transactions such as 3 adults, 6 children, and a snickers, for tracking purposes. Is it capable of this?

And I believe Rick pulled that report in order to get info to close. Just because there was X $ does not mean there was x/6 visitors. There is a mix of visitors, (adult[$6], youth[$4], and child[$0]), merchandise, donations, and perhaps memberships. The point of sale system captures every transaction. The problem is trying to infer results based on very thin assumptions. You cannot do that now that merchandise, snacks, donations, gate, etc are tracked. Also a mix of cash, credit card, and debit card.

Hi, everyone. On askc.org<http://askc.org> there is a link to the NSN which gives the general meeting information when clicked. I have checked this several times and it always says the following: There will be no public meeting of the ASKC at UMKC this month Date: Saturday, 4/22/2017 Obviously this is last month's meeting information, and we DO have a meeting this month (Come to the book sale and raffle!😊😊😀) Could the person who does this please update it? I cannot keep up with who does what anymore. Posting here is much easier. Thank you. Melinda Sent from my iPhone

Also, on our home page, http://www.askc.org/ , scrolling down are banner displays for Powell and Warko. Both have prominently placed “CLOSED NOW” signs that need to be removed.

On askc.org <http://askc.org> there is a link to the NSN which gives the general meeting information when clicked. I have checked this several times and it always says the following: There will be no public meeting of the ASKC at UMKC this month Date: Saturday, 4/22/2017 Obviously this is last month's meeting information, and we DO have a meeting this month (Come to the book sale and raffle!😊😊😀) Could the person who does this please update it?

I don't go to the ASKC home page very often so I haven't seen the problems you are talking about. The old scheduling calendar that was simple to use has been eliminated and I have been told to use the NSN calendar to schedule Powell reservations and events that come in via the reservation line so that's what I have been doing. When I go directly to the ASKC NSN page and chose the calendar I get the month of May displayed. When I click on May 27 I get the proper listing for the meeting. There is also an entry that is overlaid by the meeting entry. I think it's for the Powell Saturday night program but I can't access it.so I don't know for sure. The only way I could access it would be to delete the entry for the meeting. They I would have to re-enter the information for the meeting. Not my job so the other entry will remain a mystery. Someone has decided those big banners are a good idea. I am not that person. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@gmail.com On Wed, May 24, 2017 at 8:02 AM, 'Jerel Williams' jerel1948@...

David, The discussions in the Yahoo Group have been very revealing. From my perspective, each member of ASKC should view what they do or say through the eyes of a potential Donor.

Well, now everyone can see why I am confused. Lol. I saw the calendar entry for May 27, so I couldn't understand how our web page was linking with something for April. I just know the information isn't up-to-date and is misleading and might turn off a potential member, and I don't know who does what with the website. I just know Alan is developing the forum, and is working on installing minute details for it so it is to everyone's liking, which is waaaay more work than anyone knows.

I have a request from a publisher for a photo of Marge Allen Powell at Powell observatory. I recall seeing one with Lea Ann Jones at either the ground breaking or the opening. I would like to hear from anyone with knowledge of the details about how the Powell family came to be involved with the observatory. I told the publisher what I recall but it wouldn't hurt to verify what I told her. email me the highest res photo you might have and/or give me a call at 913-438-3825.

Hi, Pat. Thanks for clearing that up. There are so many facets to the website and NSN, I wasn't sure who to tell that it was like that. I also wasn't sure if it was a software glitch that was being cranky. These things tend to misbehave. I thought it would just link to the following month's event after the previous one was over, but that's only what I want it to do...not what the software does. 😦😕 Thanks.

Our Historian should have a good picture of her. She was standing at the podium the day we “opened” Powell. We went to all the foundations in Kansas City, asking for grants. Our letter particularly appealed to Marge Powell Allen, as her dad George had a telescope that they all looked through as children.

Message:
Hi everyone! Hopefully I can clear things up a little... The NSN calendar allows our club to set events for public and private (member) views. If you are a member and are logged in to NSN, you will see all details including the private schedules. If a non-member selects *private* event from the calendar on the ASKC page, it will land at a general event page on NSN. If a non-member selects a *public* event from the calendar on the ASKC page, it will land on the event details designed for public viewing. It's not perfect but from a community perspective it works! Melinda and David, I was unable to replicate the issues from the events on May 27- it looks like we have two separate events, one at Powell and one at Royall Hall. It's probably corrected by now but definitely let me know if I can help figure something out. :) Christina On Wed, May 24, 2017 at 3:48 PM, Brad Weaver weaver.brad@...

Message:
Dave, One of our past presidents, the late Charles Douglas, was probably the one most responsible for developing the contact with Marjorie Powell Allen that resulted in the Powell Family Foundation making the grant that resulted in the construction of Powell Observatory. He developed a real rapport with her, and that really helped move the process along. I remember a Board Meeting at that time where it was revealed that one of the main things Marge Powell Allen wanted was the Powell name on the facility. Charles Douglas piped up with " I move that we name the observatory Powell Observatory". The rest is history. Ron Abbott

Hi, all. I hope you got the email blast sent out about the event. If you have any questions or comments, post here or contact me directly. If I add to the prize list, which I'm hoping to do, this is where it will be posted. I think I have a pretty good raffle stash, though. If you missed the absentee part of the message, please know that you can buy raffle chances from me, either in-person or online before the event. I will put the chances in for the raffle prizes you want to try and win. You will know which ticket numbers you purchased. I know some people will be out-of-town this weekend, so I wanted to make sure this was an option. I want to see lots of winners. 😊😃 At some point after the event I will post raffle winners and announce how much money was raised from both the book sale and the raffle, etc. Thanks.

Message:
Hi, Alan. Thank you for all the questions... Yes, I am planning to make a few goodies to either add to the raffle or sell by the piece. I think there might be a thing or two to take to a Memorial Day gathering. And they might be familiar things you've seen before at club events. The books will be sorted by subject, such as General Astronomy, Cosmology, Children's, Biography/Memoir, Fiction, etc. This will make it a lot easier for people to browse, especially since there are A LOT of books for sale. You might be surprised at some of the books. Many are classic books, but we need newer editions that are more likely to be checked out and enjoyed. The goal is to have a more current, up-to-date library that will be a true perk of membership. When the improved library makes its unveiling at the June general meeting, I think it will look surprisingly different. The list for Linda Hall Library is going to be there to peruse, in case you want to get a book to donate to them. Linda Hall Library is very interested in several titles we have, but the books in our library, if removed from the collection, must be offered to members first. This is why they are in the sale instead of just being donated to Linda Hall, with whom we have a very good relationship. Also, the list of all the books for sale will be there to look at, sorted by title, so if there's a certain one you want to buy, it should be easy to see if it is included in the sale. I can also email the list to anyone who wants to see it beforehand. I've tried to make this the most customer-friendly set up that I could. Thanks.

Hi Cindy, The reason we generally have the Friday club starparties a short distance away from the observatory is to get on the EAST side of the nearby treeline....this avoids much of the problem with ballfield lights and also road traffic. The Tractor Pull location is much darker, very quiet and private...and has been working well for us. Yes, the one downside is that we are some distance from the bathroom. Many times the observatory is locked (if no special groups), and I simply cannot host the starparty and also monitor the security of the unlocked observatory. If you have any suggestions let me know! : ^ ) Dave Hudgins

Subject:Re: [ASKC] Re: Club party tonight
Message:
Dave, I totally understand and realized that later once I thought about it. It honestly isn't something where you, personally, have options to fix this. Unfortunately it leaves the females either to risk a tick on the tush or to not drink water. And putting a portapotty out there for less than 12 nights per year (when it's even decided sometimes just hours before if we'll even have the party)... it's just not realistic. I think it's awesome that you do this for the club. I really do. And we have so many other events and other opportunities available. If nothing else, I just wanted to confirm how the setup was. Thanks for responding! Hope you guys had a good night of observing! We ended going to a spot up north for a bit and got some great observing in. Including the comet and supernova. Clear skies!!! Cindy Thanks, Cindy Bahl cindylbahl@... On May 27, 2017, at 11:25 AM, 'starbase1127 .' dhudgins555@... [ASKC] <ASKC@yahoogroups.com> wrote: Hi Cindy, The reason we generally have the Friday club starparties a short distance away from the observatory is to get on the EAST side of the nearby treeline....this avoids much of the problem with ballfield lights and also road traffic. The Tractor Pull location is much darker, very quiet and private...and has been working well for us. Yes, the one downside is that we are some distance from the bathroom. Many times the observatory is locked (if no special groups), and I simply cannot host the starparty and also monitor the security of the unlocked observatory. If you have any suggestions let me know! : ^ ) Dave Hudgins

Subject:Tonight: Pen with Red Light
Message:
I forgot that I told some I would show them something tonight. Sorry! Meant to pull it out before the meeting. I asked a friend to take a pen, that has its tip lit by a white led light, and change it to be lit with a red led light. As it was a special request, he charges $15 each for them. I like it. I posted photos on Facebook and a few members wanted to check it out at the next meeting. I'll hang out after the meeting tonight for a few minutes for anyone that wants to look at it. Here is a direct link to my Facebook post that includes: Photos of the pen. Contact information of the person to get them from. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10156693752788084&id=518428083 Thanks, Cindy Bahl cindylbahl@...

In spite of storms and even a tornado alert for Miami County, approximately 45 brave folks showed up at Powell Saturday night. Debbie Harrelson presented "The New Martians" program 3 times. The clouds parted about the time the public started arriving, and we had a couple of hours of clear skies. Thanks to all the team 1 members: Keith Green Debbie Harrelson Stuart Riley (substitute) Paul Macek David Preston Richard Schoenberger Lindin Scott Randy Thompson Also, thanks to the following "helpers": Alex Bates Dee Schoenberger Seth Seagraves We received $246 in donations. The point of sale terminal is a major improvement in our accounting for Powell receipts. Thanks Jason and Twyla for implementing this most professional addition. Carroll Iorg

Subject:Celestron FirstScope 114 with stripped RA gear
Message:
I have one of these telescopes and noticed the tracking was not working. I then discovered that the RA gear is hard to turn and has been stripped by the worm gear.
What is my cheapest and simplest solution? Can I purchase just the RA gear and install it without a lot of special tools and skills? Or, should I be shopping for the entire (EQ-2, I think) mount head?
Otherwise it is in good condition, but given the seriousness of this problem and the fact that this scope is not of great quality might it NOT be worth fixing?
Celestron currently sells new ones for about $385, I believe.Joe Alburty

Hi Joe, After dealing with both Meade and Celestron for 25+ years on numerous telescope repairs, I would not expect any help from them for anything out of warranty or at least not more than 3 years old in terms of parts. It's just not economically practical for them to support parts longer than this. If you have no luck on Cloudy Nights finding a good buy on a used equatorial head then you are in a difficult spot from a $ point of view. I certainly would not spend $385 for a new manual equatorial mount. If you really like the 114m scope, I would first consider buying a new computerized single arm mount and tripod from Orion for $399. At a similar price point I think you can buy a very nice basic 6" dob from Orion. Good luck! Dave Hudgins

Hey Clint-- Welcome to the club! I can help out with a couple of your questions, and feel free to send more. Powell Observatory has public nights every Saturday night, May through October, and probably has about one private night most weeks, especially as we get later into the year, sometimes more, sometimes less. On nights where there's no public or private night, Powell keyholders can reserve the Observatory for their own private use, occasionally opening it up to any member who wants to come down. I see that you've signed up for NSN, which should allow you to view the info on our calendar marked as Private events. For more info on public nights, check out the Powell page on our website (http://askc.org/observatories/powell-observatory) and click on 2017 Public Schedule. Someone usually gets these events added to the NSN Calendar that you referenced, but they aren't all added for the rest of the year, as this takes a significant amount of time, and it's all on a volunteer basis. The Upcoming Events page should also list all of the Powell and Warko nights in the next 30 days. Hope to see you at one of our events soon!

I am therefore off Monday thru Thursdays. So my first 2 questions are related to that. But don't worry there will be more. How often is a member down at the Powell observatory during the week? I looked at the calendar on the askc.org website, but I did not seen anything scheduled at Powell for June. Not even a public night. Am I missing something? Thanks Clint

You can go to https://store.usps.com/store/ https://store.usps.com/store/ to pre-order the USA Eclipse Stamp now. It's $7.84 for a panel of 16 stamps. Issue date is June 20th. I figured it will be a popular item so pre-ordering might be a good idea. Elizabeth Brown

I just spoke with Lunt and the Solar scope will be shipped in about two weeks. We should expect arrival around June 21 and we want to be ready. My ribs and shoulder are healed well enough to start the pier installation. I will commence digging on Saturday unless the weather is lousy. As long as I'm there, and assuming no one else has done it, I'll do the trimming as well. Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

Thanks for your responses David, Chris, Jim. It looks like I would have to request a private night to be able be able to look through the 30". However, I don't want to be a pain or an annoyance and was hoping that there was a night that someone was planning to go down to Powell and I could kinda tag along. I know that when I am looking at some cool objects through my scope at home, I try to make my kids or wife look and tell them all about it. I was again hoping someone would like to be that way with me. Like Phil Plait said "Getting an Astronomer to talk is easy, getting them to shut up is the hard part". And I love to listen about things I don't know a lot about. I guess I hope someone will allow me to tag along. If not I guess I will request a private night while Saturn is so close. I also follow up question about a member private night. How many people can I bring along? Also, can I bring my kids? I have a 4 and 6 year old that love astronomy, or at least the solar system and planets. My 4 year old's favorite is Saturn and he would really like to see it. I was hoping they he would get the chance to look at it through something more powerful than my 130mm reflector in the city. By the way he can tell you all the planets in order, what they are made of, and some of the names of the major moons. He can also name most of the dwarf planets. :) I kinda got off topic there. Thanks again! Clint

Clint, I was in your shoes not too long ago. Let me know if I can help. Powell gets booked for private nights although it is first come first served. Key Holders do one event during their duty week. After that requires volunteers. I can break free many evenings during the week. One thing to keep in mind, you mentioned your children, 4 and 6 years old. It gets dark late in the summer, after 9:00 in June. This is late for 4 and 6 year old’s. My Grandson fell asleep in the corner of the classroom when I took him to a private night with me last winter. My private night group departed around 11:00 while he snoozed away on a concrete floor with my coat as a mattress and his as a blanket. It gets dark early in winter, but it’s cold. Weather is warm in the summer, but it gets dark late! Before sundown we can set up a solar scope and that is a real treat for anyone that has never viewed the Sun.

Awesome video. You can even see the great red spot come into view. The sound track sure sounds like it's from Legeti's Also Sprach Zarathustra. Rather appropriate to bring 2001 A Space Odyssey to mind. Maybe inadequately educated that don't like the music are too young to remember the Odeyssey much less the rest of the classical music used In the sound track. Taking away their smart phones and calculators and forcing a little more arts education might not be such a bad idea? Nah, searching for invisible creatures is a much more engaging use for a smart phone. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@... On Sat, Jun 3, 2017 at 9:16 AM, 'starbase1127 .' dhudgins555@...

Need HELP! I just received the information below about the talk on June 10, which I will give in Jackie's absence. They really want to know how to photograph the eclipse and I "know nothing" about doing that. Any suggestions that would be helpful to answer their questions? I'm thinking about cancelling the talk as I'm no expert and seeing if we could suggest someone else to come to their meeting before the eclipse event to talk about photography. Actually, Fred and Jen at Daystar would be good guests, now that I think about it.... Elizabeth Brown

Elizabeth, Denise here. ll will do this with you. I think we can blend the usual eclipse stuff you do with the photography I am working on. I have been working on my equipment for photographing the Eclipse and doing some research. I can do some basics and suggest some resources. With more practice, I will know more in a couple of weeks, but I think what I have is a good start for even avid photogrsphers, generating some question and discussion, along with some how to. I can fill 20-30 min and about 10 slides. Denise On Tue, Jun 6, 2017, 8:18 AM ebrown2323@... [ASKC] < ASKC@yahoogroups.com> wrote: > Need HELP!

Denise, Could you do your eclipse photography talk for us here locally at perhaps a GM or something? Special group at Powell one evening? I want to hear all the advice I can get. The last eclipse I photographed was with film back in 1997. I need an update and chance to discuss with others. Dave Hudgins On Tue, Jun 6, 2017 at 12:06 PM, Denise Moser dennyzen@...

I saw online that your telescope is open to the public on Saturdays. However I am leaving early Saturday morning. I was wondering if any of your volunteers was going to be using the telescope Friday night, I wouldn't be much of a pain. I just don't want I miss the opportunity. I've been looking through telescopes all my life, and own a 16" dobsonian. But a 30 inch Newtonian is too good to not ask. If there is no way to make this happen I understand but I would kick myself if I didn't ask. Thank you for your time and consideration. 1SG Jon M Waterhouse

Subject:Update and Web Request David Levy at UMKC June 16th
Message:
First of all, the speaking engagements are two (2) completely separate events. More urgent is the request from Linda Hall Library to have our (ASKC-Warko) event on the ASKC web page so the library can have a link and send patrons to our event details. This would include social media also. The response is so great that they are being flooded with requests for more tickets and want to inform people of Friday nights event. Eric Ward and I worked together to bring David (Doveed) to KC as a speaker. David, because of his friendship and connections to the ASKC wanted to speak at an ASKC event. Timing didn't fit into the GM rotation for monthly meetings. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

More urgent is the request from Linda Hall Library to have our (ASKC-Warko) event on the ASKC web page so the library can have a link and send patrons to our event details. This would include social media also. The response is so great that they are being flooded with requests for more tickets and want to inform people of Friday nights event. Eric Ward and I worked together to bring David (Doveed) to KC as a speaker. David, because of his friendship and connections to the ASKC wanted to speak at an ASKC event. Timing didn't fit into the GM rotation for monthly meetings. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Is his presentation for 2 nights? I listed for tickets and confirmed that I was listed for the Thursday Jun 15 program and now this email looks like it is not the 15th but now on the 16th. How do we know which is the correct date and where do we go for the tickets (if they are needed) if they are actually open to the public and press for Friday the 16th?

Levy will be taking us on a journey of the night sky throughout man’s history. Friday, June 16th, 2017 Time: 7:00 p.m. Royall Hall Room 104, UMKC Campus 52nd & Charlotte Rd. Free parking in parking garage south of Royall Hall The Warkoczewski Observatory will be open, weather permitting, following the talk. Presented by: Astronomical Society of Kansas City Warkoczewski Observatory-UMKC David Levy is one of the best known astronomers of the twentieth century who is not a professional astronomer! Through thousands of hours of observing, research and writing, Levy has made many contributions to the field of astronomy. He has discovered over 22 comets, authored nearly 35 books and has discovered many asteroids. He is the only astronomer to discover a comet by visual observing, film photography and by electronic-CCD imaging. He is most noted for being part of the team with Gene and Carolyn Shoemaker who discovered the Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 (SL9) that broke apart and impacted Jupiter in 1994. Among his many awards include C.A. Medal of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada, Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory’s Edgar Wilson Award, Amateur Achievement Award of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific and an Emmy for the documentary “Three Minutes to Impact” comet SL9.

Subject:A presentation by author David Baron - "American Eclipse" - June 20 at Central LIbrary downtown 6:30 PM
Message:
Author David Baron has written the above book, which went on sale yesterday. It is an historical book about the total eclipse of 1878, in the American West, which darkened skies from Montana Territory to Texas. It is the story of three of the most determined eclipse chasers who participated in this adventure. To me, this book is a "win-win" - it's about ECLIPSES, and. I love history, too, especially when it is connected to astronomy. I'm reading it now - very interesting! His talk is Tuesday, June 20th, at 6:30 PM. This is at the Central Library downtown, at 10th and Central. There is free parking across the street. You can reserve your spot at this website: http://www.kclibrary.org/signature-events/american-eclipse Click on the RSVP button. I hope to see some of you there! I did get two tickets.. Anyone need a ride? Jackie Jackie Beucher Vice President, Astronomical Society of Kansas City Chair, 2017 Eclipse Committee 913-522-8799 (cell)

I think Jackie has the dates wrong. As indicated in the Cosmic Messenger and on the Linda Hall web site, the Linda Hall talk is on June 15 at 7:00. Tickets are required for that event.

This is odd, it seems that the yahoo board connected this to a conversation from early June 2014. Is that supposed to happen? Anyhow, I guess it was potentially beneficial. In that conversation it said that the Boy Scout camp is only for Boy Scouts. Also, Mike Sterling wrote that he was once told that members could camp on our 1 acre... and that he has seen it done. Is this still the case as far as anyone knows? I wasn't planning on camping there for a week, or even for more that one night. I was hoping to set up a small tent and look through the 12 and 16 in scopes. Let my kids look through them. Then put them in the tent when they got tired so I could keep looking at the sky. Thanks Clint

You can definitely stay all night and others have set up a tent before. What you propose should be fine. And I actually went back in time and typed this message in 2014... Stoopid computer stuff.

I sold ALL of my Baadar film at a camera club workshop Saturday. I've ordered roll number 4 and it should be here next week. Now I need more paper towel tubes. When that roll is used up please save me the tubes. They are great for people to transport the film. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

I am sure this has been covered in a board post at one point, how much are you selling pieces for? besides a camera lens, what are the application for the Baadar film? can it be used to make a solar filter for a telescope and or binoculars? Clint

Thanks for the heads up, Jackie. I will try to attend this. I went to church camp there for five summers as a young teen and I have wanted to return there or send one of my kids to camp since I now live fairly close (compared to my hometown of Peculiar). They have a very nice property with a small lake tucked away in the country a few miles NW of Lawson. It would be a great place to observe with skies as dark or a bit darker than what we have at Powell. If no one else has reached out to them for more information, I can do that and share with anyone interested. https://www.google.com/maps/place/39%C2%B027'56.0%22N+94%C2%B008'13.0%22W/@39.465556,-94.136934,646m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d39.465556!4d-94.136934 Thanks,Brad Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

You are correct, it is used to make your own solar filters for telescopes and binoculars. I don't recall David's prices, but I know they are much cheaper per square inch than if you bought a small sheet for yourself. An 8" x 8" sheet is around $30 and that is the size I used to create my filter on a 70mm refractor (same telescope in the detailed instructions). I believe the Baadar film will provide a blue-gray view of the sun. I ended up using the same material used in most eclipse glasses since it was a little cheaper per sheet and I wanted the orange view of the sun. I believe using this material (from Thousand Oaks Optics) sacrifices a bit of quality versus the Baadar film, but I wasn't too concerned since I use it on a low-end telescope. Here is the site I used for instructions to make my own filter. http://astrosolar.com/en/information/how-to/how-to-make-an-inexpensive-filter-cell/ Hope this helps! Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

Baadar film can be used for cameras, binoculars, and telescopes. I sell it at very close to cost at 15 cents per square inch. There's always a little waste so I may lose a little. I sell this a service for members not to make money. You can buy a filter made from the same stuff with a metal frame for around $50 or you can make your own for about $3.

Could it be used for direct viewing of the Sun? I want to make what essentially ends up being a couple of child friendly welding helmets to have for my kids for the eclipse. I know they will start staring at the sun at some point during the Eclipse. I want something I can literally strap to their heads so they don't jack up their eyes. And I also would want to make a filter for my telescope, camera and maybe a pair of binoculars. I like to have options, I bet i will forget or somehow damage one of the things I have for viewing the eclipse by 8 am on the the morning of Aug 21st. I will start saving paper towel rolls!

If you are going to use welding helmets why not just put #14 welding filters in them. I don't know how you would safely attach Baadar film to the helmets. Use a piece slightly larger than a cover plate and wrap it over the edge and secure with tape. The #14 glass filter seems easier. I think I have a few pieces around here from when I used to work for a living. I'll let you know if I find it.

Clint, I have a 6” SCT scope and I use a full aperture Solar filter. I have looked through 8” DOBs with full aperture Solar filters and they worked great and provided comfortable viewing. At some point aperture needs to be reduced with a cover and using an off axis Solar filter. Off axis is required for both SCTs and DOBs. I have not researched where this point is other than it is greater than 8”. Most refractors are less than 6”. (I have never seen an amateur refractor over 5”.) Full aperture solar filters work for them. Jerel Jerel Williams <mailto:Jerel1948@...> Jerel1948@...

Yes on the small filter area. There is no need for full aperture for eclipse watching. Full aperture filters have advantages and disadvantages. One advantage is greater resolution but if there's nothing to look at that isn't much help. A major disadvantage is the heat shimmer of a full aperture filter is SIGNIFICANT. Keep in mind you aren't trying to pull out faint objects. There's plenty of light with the sun. I have found that putting an off axis filter at the lower part of the scope reduces that shimmer. The sun is currently entering solar minimum. There have been no spots for days so there's not much going on in white light. In H-alpha there are small prominences, filaments, phlages and active regions every day. Bottom line is many people go with the full aperture because it looks better than an off aperture filter. Of course that's just me. I use a full aperture filter on the only telescope I use for white light but it's only a 90mm:-) My other solar scopes are small dedicated 40mm and 90mm H-Alpha scope that can only be used on the sun. I have a Lumicon H-Alpha add on filter I used to use with an 8" reflector but I haven't use it in years. The ASKC also has one that hasn't been used since we sold the 4" refractor to some Italians a couple of decades ago. it used to be mounted on that pier inside the fence that isn't used anymore. I think the bandpass was over 7 ang and it only revealed prominences. New H-alpha filters are much better so the old Lumicons aren't used any more. They're actually approaching collector's status now;-) Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@... On Mon, Jun 12, 2017 at 11:29 AM, clint66062@...

Maybe an interesting motion effect? Eclipse Trails?...kinda like Star Trails? Twenty seconds makes no sense, so maybe they weren't aware how long the eclipse lasts start to finish, or they weren't paying attention when you covered that in your presentation. Honest (ignorant) question, what if you kept the shutter open for ~90-120 seconds at various phases before and after totality? I'm thinking not very much since it's a moving shadow obstructing an object, but I have almost no photography experience. Unless you had a couple cameras in use, I would think that you'd be sacrificing valuable time that could be used to take multiple pictures with fast shutter speeds. Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

Message:
I am not an expert but.....I think you would have a vastly overexposed image right up to the time the detector burned out or the interior of the camera started smoking😊. Even the partial phases are extremely bright. For example at f/5.6 and ISO 1000, a 1/8000 second exposure will get you a nice diamond ring. A series of descrete frames or a video would be possible and that is what is done most of the time.

Eclipse Trails?...kinda like Star Trails? Twenty seconds makes no sense, so maybe they weren't aware how long the eclipse lasts start to finish, or they weren't paying attention when you covered that in your presentation. Honest (ignorant) question, what if you kept the shutter open for ~90-120 seconds at various phases before and after totality? I'm thinking not very much since it's a moving shadow obstructing an object, but I have almost no photography experience. Unless you had a couple cameras in use, I would think that you'd be sacrificing valuable time that could be used to take multiple pictures with fast shutter speeds.

I've been looking at picking up a small travel telescope and am looking at either an Orion 127mm Maksutov or a Celestron NexStar 5SE, which is a Schmidt. They are essential the same aperture with some slight specification differences. The Celestron NexStars are all on sale this month as well. I'm very familiar with SCTs, but no experience with Maks. Can anyone offer any comparison information? Thanks. Rick Henderson

Rick, I hate to say it, but ... It depends. I have owned and used both types of optical systems and I generally find one excels in a venue of observing, where the other does not. For example, Maks are usually best regarded for planetary visual observing, due to the long focal length inherent to the design. However, MAKs may not be very well adapted for deep or dark nebulae or for photographing those same celestial objects. SCTs are, generally, a workhorse that can and do perform well on planetary, but may lack contrast and detail that a MAK might deliver. The Moon for example. However, using a SCT for recording clusters, nebulae, and dark or low luminance objects, they can and do well. Again, pick your price point, determine your: 1 - Must have for visual 2 - Must have for photographical or video 3 - The type of interests you are pursuing (astronomically speaking) 4 - How much weight you want to carry while traveling.

Maksutov’s have a longer focal length resulting in a higher focal ratio, usually F13 versus F10 for a typical SCT. Depending on what you want to do that may be a slight disadvantage. After 5” aperture, they cost more per inch of aperture. That’s why you typically don’t see Maks offered in 6”, 8”, and larger. Maksutov’s have their secondary mirror engraved into the corrector plate. For that reason they have a reputation for being tougher than an SCT. There is no adjustment I am aware of for collimation. I travel everywhere with my Nexstar 6SE SCT (never air, yet). I have had no issues and collimation is still good. Rick, I think you’ve seen how I pack it.

Thanks, Jerel. I had forgotten that you had an 6SE. How sturdy is the tripod? Does it take very long for vibrations to die out after you focus and the like? Thanks. Rick Henderson From: ASKC@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ASKC@yahoogroups.com] Sent: Monday, June 12, 2017 7:57 PM To: ASKC@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [ASKC] Mak vs Schmidt Maksutov’s have a longer focal length resulting in a higher focal ratio, usually F13 versus F10 for a typical SCT. Depending on what you want to do that may be a slight disadvantage. After 5” aperture, they cost more per inch of aperture. That’s why you typically don’t see Maks offered in 6”, 8”, and larger. Maksutov’s have their secondary mirror engraved into the corrector plate. For that reason they have a reputation for being tougher than an SCT. There is no adjustment I am aware of for collimation. I travel everywhere with my Nexstar 6SE SCT (never air, yet). I have had no issues and collimation is still good. Rick, I think you’ve seen how I pack it. I repurposed my old business travel bag using Celestron’s packing material from their shipping carton. I’d go for price if the delta is significant. Technically, both designs are solid.

They are essential the same aperture with some slight specification differences. The Celestron NexStars are all on sale this month as well. I'm very familiar with SCTs, but no experience with Maks. Can anyone offer any comparison information? Thanks. Rick Henderson

Stuart, After looking over the specs again, it appears that the SCT is heavier than the Mak and has a slightly larger secondary obstruction. The difference in the f/ratio doesn't bother me. I'm really only interested in visual work with whichever I get. The Celestron is $100 cheaper than the Orion, which is a consideration. Thanks for your input!

Message:
Rick, Focusing at higher powers, over 100-150x almost always results in minor vibration, but it dampens quickly. Celestron attempted to balance weight vs. stability. It's okay for my 6". My mount is also used for the 8SE. The 5SE is a slightly different set of hardware for the mount. I've never seen a 5SE so I cannot comment on its mount. Calatlog photos of the 5SE OTA look identical to my 6SE with less aperture. I think their 4SE is a Mak. With good seeing my 6SE can easily split the 'double double' at 200-230x. I have never had good viewing over 250x even with good seeing. I consider this my operating limit despite what their specifications say. My planetary challenge is Jupiter's Red Spot. It's got to be a good night. I've only positively identified it once. Other times always required my good imagination. Good luck,Jerel Jerel Williamsjerel1948@...

Rick, All things considered, I think I'd go with the Celestron. Based on observing with Dave Hudgins, who has the 8 inch version, it seems that their alignment procedure is easy, and the go-to ability on Dave's scope always put the object in the eyepiece field. Also, the slewing motors are relatively quiet. I think the C5 is a good choice. Ron Abbott

They have a very nice property with a small lake tucked away in the country a few miles NW of Lawson.

I know it is OK to camp near our observatory. We have an acre, right? It’s been done many times…. If no one else is there, you can bed those kids down in the classroom. THAT has even been done. J Jackie B. From: ASKC@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ASKC@yahoogroups.com] Sent: Sunday, June 11, 2017 4:07 PM To: ASKC@yahoogroups.com Subject: [ASKC] Re: Camping This is odd, it seems that the yahoo board connected this to a conversation from early June 2014. Is that supposed to happen? Anyhow, I guess it was potentially beneficial. In that conversation it said that the Boy Scout camp is only for Boy Scouts. Also, Mike Sterling wrote that he was once told that members could camp on our 1 acre... and that he has seen it done. Is this still the case as far as anyone knows? I wasn't planning on camping there for a week, or even for more that one night. I was hoping to set up a small tent and look through the 12 and 16 in scopes. Let my kids look through them. Then put them in the tent when they got tired so I could keep looking at the sky. Thanks Clint

Subject:Re: Mak vs Schmidt
Message:
Rick, Sorry for the late reply, I've been out of town. However, here's my two cents: Without boring you with tech specs which you already know, the two 5" maks I have owned had (I believe) a very slight edge in planetary observing. Sharp and contrasty. However, since you plan to use it for general observing the SCT with slightly faster f/10 will give a wider field more easily. I think that is important. And the $100 price difference is further weight for the SCT. But Rick, I don't see any manual RA/DEC clutch releases on the Celestron Nextstar 5SE. If that is true, it means you MUST use the motors for all motion of the scope. My current 5" Mak also does not have these manual clutch releases either, and I can say that it is a bit of a disadvantage in quickly moving the scope from one direction to another. The motors work of course, but it takes battery power and a bit more time. Perhaps this is worth checking out? Dave Hudgins

Message:
He has arrived. Today he will be handing over all of his remaining observing notes to Linda Hall Library. This fits into two large case that weigh about 100 lbs total. Don't forget......he will also be speaking and visiting the Warko tomorrow night. 7:00 PM and there is plenty of seating. Share the word.

Message:
Scott Kranz "I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced." -------- Original message -------- From: "yee_willie@yahoo.com [amastro]" <amastro@yahoogroups.com> Date: 06/16/2017 21:30 (GMT-06:00) To: amastro@yahoogroups.com Subject: [amastro] Howie Glatter, R.I.P. From Jeff Norwood: Did you notice how the stars seemed to burn a little less brightly last night? I fear that it is due to the fact that the astronomical world has lost a great artisan as well as a vibrant spirit. It is with a heavy heart that I inform all of you of the passing away of Howie Glatter late last night after a short but intense battle with cancer. Howie’s contributions to the field of astronomy and, in particular, to the art of collimation was priceless and he will be greatly missed by all of us. His attention to detail and his unswerving adherence to tolerances far beyond the norm allowed him to create a product that, to this very day, has seen no equal. Howie truly was a great artist at his craft but that is not all that he was. He was a true independent thinker, a lover of Bach, an old hippie, and an ardent political activist. Irrespective of your political leanings, one had to admit that Howie was a passionate man: whether that be with his politics, his wide interests, or his friends and family. You could not help but admire his ardent devotion to everything in this world that he loved. There was, however, one strong and supportive force in Howie’s life that kept in balance all of his fervent enthusiasm: his wife, Pok Sun. The love between these two people was everlasting and Pok Sun was the force that kept Howie’s life in balance. Her devotion to him was extraordinary and he was very lucky to have had her throughout his journey here on earth. As it turns out, his time here on earth has been cut short by a hideous disease plaguing all too many people in this world. So we must say goodbye to another legend in this business.

Message:
Scott, Thanks for sending this on to the ASKC group. That is very sad news. I first met Howie at one of the star parties - maybe Chiefland. Bought one of his collimators and have happily used it ever since. I looked forward to seeing Howie and his wife vending at events. He was one of the good guys - cheerful, knowledgeable, and happy to help. He will be missed. **** Kathy On Fri, Jun 16, 2017 at 11:50 PM, Scott s.kranz1@...

Subject:Nelson-Atkins Muse at the Museum Night, Saturday, July 15th
Message:
Hi all, I was contacted by the Nelson-Atkins Museum asking if we'd like to participate in their Muse at the Museum night, Saturday, July 15th. We would need to arrive at 6:00 PM, set up on the south side of the museum, run the scopes until 11:00 PM and then load out. We would have transportation vehicles (carts) to carry our stuff to and from the setup area. It is a bit of a long gig, but I plan to be there as the Nelson is one of my favorite gigs. If we have inclement weather, we will still do the event, but it will be inside. Possibly computer projector sky tours, meteorites, telescopes looking across the mall at the shuttlecocks, etc., but let's hope for clear skies. Jupiter and Saturn will both be up. It will be last quarter moon almost, but there will be plenty of light from the newer section of the museum so it will be bright object night. Please contact me if you are interested in helping out. So far I have me with one telescope and laser pointer. Anyone else? Rick Henderson

We would need to arrive at 6:00 PM, set up on the south side of the museum, run the scopes until 11:00 PM and then load out. We would have transportation vehicles (carts) to carry our stuff to and from the setup area. It is a bit of a long gig, but I plan to be there as the Nelson is one of my favorite gigs. If we have inclement weather, we will still do the event, but it will be inside. Possibly computer projector sky tours, meteorites, telescopes looking across the mall at the shuttlecocks, etc., but let's hope for clear skies. Jupiter and Saturn will both be up. It will be last quarter moon almost, but there will be plenty of light from the newer section of the museum so it will be bright object night. Please contact me if you are interested in helping out. So far I have me with one telescope and laser pointer. Anyone else? Rick Henderson

Team 5 hosted approximately 50 guests last night during two programs. It was quite apparent from the outset that the clouds would not part. We could have added another 10, but the approaching line of thunderstorms (red, purple, and a touch of white on radar) encouraged us to secure the facility and beat our way home. Thanks to the team members and to Jason for enduring a brutal heat index of 100+ for a couple of hours of observing clouds. Mike Stewart

Message:
Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Lonna Crook <cathairs@...> Date: Mon, Jun 19, 2017 at 10:21 AM Subject: New Life Baptist Church of LaCygne--- VBS To: youngmdavid@... Mr. Young, Our church’s vacation bible school this summer will be “Galatic Starveyors”. Searching the visible…finding the invisible. Our VBS dates this year is June 26th – June 30th. We were wondering if any local astronomers would be willing to come to our church on the final night, Friday June 30th, to share their telescopes and knowledge with our kids. Our VBS would conclude at 8:30pm that night. At that point is when we would love for someone to come and share with the kids and possibly their parents too. Last year we averaged around 25 kids in our VBS program. We hope to at least have that many again this year plus a few more. Please let me know if anyone is willing to come on June 30th so that we can announce it during the week of VBS.

Very much up to you Ron. I'd appreciate the company if you're available. I called Lonna a bit ago and told her I'd get there about 8pm to setup. She said she'd like it to last until about 10pm. Jupiter, the moon, and Saturn should be decent targets that night given clear skies. I'll be bringing my 8" dob and a 90mm Maks.

They are about $12 with shipping on line at several sites. I actually one on backorder. While rummaging I also saw an extender for a telrad base so it's not right on the scope. Looks like it would make it a lot easier to see through. I may have to get one of those.

Subject:Solar eclipse eye injuries detailed at Space.com
Message:
This just came in to me from another egroup, and I thought you all would be interested in reading it. Jackie B. Hanneke Weitering writing at space.com has done an outstanding job with an article, informed by Dr. Chou, regarding eye injury and eclipse viewing. https://www.space.com/37199-solar-eclipse-blindness.html I've not seen any other "mass media" touch upon the concepts of solar retinopathy, specifically a type of retinal damage (most insidiously damage at the fovea) which can affect visual acuity for years if not permanently. Most readers might not appreciate the difference between current solar retinopathy models and older explainations of what happens in eclipse related eye injury, that is, the old "your eyeballs get fried by solar UV and infrared" model. The older model arouses caution (thankfully!) but it has misled some science minded non-specialists who observe (less publically these days) that UV is much reduced by the lens of the eye, and the amount of infrared coming through the iris would take a very long time to "fry" anything. One might therefore conclude (incorrectly) that eclipse watchers with eye damage is mere exaggeration except when someone stares for a crazy long time. The old model pre-dates research done to understand the chemical process that occurs as overloaded photoreceptors recover from intensely bright light. The space.com article compares this to an episode of over-eating, but I think a tighter comparison is, for instance, the effect of lactic acid in overworked muscles. You don't ache until later. The point is, because the damaging process is more akin to "poisoning" than "frying", the effect on vision is not noticable until hours after bright light exposure. I speak from personal experience (from 2012 Transit of Venus). I'll spare you the details, except to say nothing stimulates a layman's interest in medical research like having the condition or injury himself! Of reseach papers on the subject, I recommend this one to start: Solar Retinopathy: Etiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment Not always caused by sun exposure, solar retinopathy causes distinct injury to the retina. KEVIN C. CHEN, MD · JESSE J. JUNG, MD · ALEXANDER AIZMAN, MD Retinal Physician, Volume: 10, Issue: October 2013, page(s): 46 - 50 For the seriously interested this is a "must read", available free online at http://www.retinalphysician.com/issues/2013/october-2013/solar-retinopathy-etiology,-diagnosis,-and-treatmhttp://www.retinalphysician.com/issues/2013/october-2013/solar-retinopathy-etiology,-diagnosis,-and-treatm <http://www.retinalphysician.com/issues/2013/october-2013/solar-retinopathy-etiology,-diagnosis,-and-treatmhttp:/www.retinalphysician.com/issues/2013/october-2013/solar-retinopathy-etiology,-diagnosis,-and-treatm> If link broke, try http://bit.ly/2tL3edW Pay particular attention to the importance of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in determining cases of solar retinopathy.

Yes, they are on the roof of the parking garage. We saw several telescopes set up and the big binoculars. Jupiter was seen very early tonight. It's a perfect night to go up there, but it's cooling off fast and is windy, so dress for it. Charles Kennedy got a Barlow lens out and made Jupiter look like you could reach through and touch it. It was unbelievable.

Very good. Given the proximity of the solstice and resulting late times for sunset and ECT, I don’t expect to do a classroom presentation until 8:30 (still over a quarter of an hour before sunset).

No eclipses or transits of the Galilean moons, but Io and Ganymede will appear quite close together east of Jupiter.

We would need to arrive at 6:00 PM, set up on the south side of the museum, run the scopes until 11:00 PM and then load out. We would have transportation vehicles (carts) to carry our stuff to and from the setup area. It is a bit of a long gig, but I plan to be there as the Nelson is one of my favorite gigs. If we have inclement weather, we will still do the event, but it will be inside. Possibly computer projector sky tours, meteorites, telescopes looking across the mall at the shuttlecocks, etc., but let's hope for clear skies. Jupiter and Saturn will both be up. It will be last quarter moon almost, but there will be plenty of light from the newer section of the museum so it will be bright object night. Please contact me if you are interested in helping out. So far I have me with one telescope and laser pointer. Anyone else? Rick Henderson

Team 4 hosted 70 guests last night. Jason stayed at Powell after the morning work party. and assisted Jenifer Reuss the gate, Jay Manifold did programs, Jason and former member David Neuenswander ran the 30" on a cloudy night. There were occasional small sucker holes and a few people go to see Jupiter and there were sporadic laser tours. Jackie came down about 10:00 for a little while. Jay showed the video she made during 5 presentations. After most of the guests had finally given up and left the clouds parted about 11:00 and we finished out the evening with Jupiter and Saturn. We picked up two new memberships. The clouds moved back in and there were even a few sprinkles. We closed up and left at midnight. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Jason stayed at Powell after the morning work party. and assisted Jenifer Reuss the gate, Jay Manifold did programs, Jason and former member David Neuenswander ran the 30" on a cloudy night. There were occasional small sucker holes and a few people go to see Jupiter and there were sporadic laser tours. Jackie came down about 10:00 for a little while. Jay showed the video she made during 5 presentations. After most of the guests had finally given up and left the clouds parted about 11:00 and we finished out the evening with Jupiter and Saturn. We picked up two new memberships. The clouds moved back in and there were even a few sprinkles. We closed up and left at midnight.

Subject:Eclipse Conversation Today
Message:
I just read this from Jay Ryan, an eclipse chaser…. I just had to share. Jackie B. So I'm standing in line at Taco Bell for tonight's dinner and this old lady with a cane walks by. She remarks about my old grungy Moon phase t-shirt that my in-laws got me from the Corning Glass Museum, and asks me if I'm going to see the eclipse this year. I just about fell over. I've been telling so many people about the eclipse for the last two years but this is the first time that anyone has come to me and brought up the subject. This is a highly unusual subject of discussion in Blue Collar Cleveland, especially when I'm not the one bringing it up. This lady tells me that she was in Virginia Beach for the 1970 eclipse. She said it was the most incredible thing she had ever seen, something she would never forget. She said it was a transformative experience, that it changed her life. OK, so I'm with her up to this point. Then she tells me that she never believed in astrology before that. She then begins to propound her theory that there is energy released by a total solar eclipse, and everyone receives and channels this energy differently based on their sign. So after enjoying the first part of the conversation, I'm all of a sudden like, "ooooooooo-kay," and am starting to lean my body in the general direction of the door. After seeing Ricardo's video about the druids at the 1979 eclipse, we can expect that after this year, with tens of mil lions of people seeing this TSE, we'll all have many more such conversations! -jay

I know there are a few bicycle folks out there. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Tammy Seamands <TSeamands@...> Date: Tue, Jun 27, 2017 at 12:03 PM Subject: Rush the Rails To: "powell@..." <powell@...> Good Morning Dirty Kanza is hosting a cycling event and Relay Run on the Flint Hills Nature Trail on October 7, 2017. The want to make this an annual event are anticipating 500 participants this first year. Event Overview: The Flint Hills Nature Trail Cycling Event is designed to show off the entirety of the trail to the outdoor running community. With its multiple towns located along the route, the nature trail is perfectly poised to host a relay/recreational ride and will serve to highlight the communities along the way as well as the Flint Hills region. The run will begin in Osawatomie and culminate with a finish celebration at the Riverwalk in Council Grove. The relay run will be a competitive format with both traditional and non-traditional categories to emphasize the family fun atmosphere of the event. The ride will have multiple distance options, beginning in different communities along the route, and culminate with a finish celebration at the Riverwalk in Council Grove. The ride will be a non-competitive format to emphasize the family fun atmosphere of the event. Because the City of Osawatomie is the starting point for the cycling event and relay run, we are inviting participants and family members to camp at the John Brown Park. We are still in the planning stage of the celebration but we are looking at having a pasta dinner on Friday evening along with a campfire and music in the park that evening. We will be inviting the public to participate in these events. The next morning we want to serve breakfast to the participants and begin the race with some reenactors firing a musket. We would like to invite Powell Observatory t to participate in the event. We are preparing welcome packets for the participants and we would like to be able to include information from you to help draw visitors back to the community. If you have brochures or something that we can include in the welcome packet to promote the Observatory would be great. Thank you for taking the time to consider this request.

Well, it's not a beast. It's only a little 60 mm. The double stack is what I want to test. When I looked through one in Tucson at the Lunt facility the view was awesome. The caveate here is I was observing in Tucson at higher altitude than KC and low humidity. Not needing power was a major factor in our decision to go with this one. The pressure tuning to reduce the "sweet spot" should be a nice feature. Sent by David Young On Jun 27, 2017 6:54 PM, "David Stewart scidav87@...

Subject:The Warko's status, scheduling, presentations and misinformation
Message:
Let me be clear and reiterate what Charles correctly said at the meeting last Saturday night before I was in the room for the meeting. Seems some are giving incorrect information who are not on staff at the Warko. 1) Status: OPEN....The roof might be closed for repairs, but observing is continuing in a non-stop process on the top level (5) of the parking structure. We wold like to say it is working very well at the temporary location. The University is working fantastically with the staff astronomers by blocking vehicle access and turning off the lights. It is actually darker than the roof. Not to mention access. On most nights we have up to 16" scopes. 2) Scheduling: The schedule was submitted and is printed along with Powell's. May 5- Aug 18..8:30pm, Aug 25 to Sept. 8 7:30pm and Sept. 15 to Oct 27 7:00pm with special events when possible 3) Presentations: Yes. The Warko is having speakers and presentations. So far we have had speaking on Friday nights: Madhulia "Lika" Guhathakurta, Lead Program Scientist-Heliophysics at NASA's Headquarters. Fred Espenak, Retired Astrophysicist from NASA-Goddard Space Flight Center David H. Levy, Jarnac Observatory Remaining Schedule (all at 7:00pm): July 21 A Giant Leap...........

Message:
I did a quick test of the new Lunt solar scope today. I put a photo of it on the yahoo site in the photo area. Of course this photo shows it mounted on the tripod for the CATE project. I'm going to work on the mounting at Powell tonight. If I am successful I'll post a photo of it on the pier. There will need to be a short training talk with anyone who wants to use it. The pressure tuning is pretty easy to use. Once it's set for the local altitude you don't need to fiddle with it. You tune the front double stack etalon the same way as the Coronado scopes. I spent about 5 minutes with it this morning before the sucker hole clouded over. I could see prominences, plages, a couple of small filaments and one large filament. Then the blasted clouds moved in and I packed everything back up:-( Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Steve King and I went to the DSS to see what the problem is with the WiFi. The signal strength was definitely down and did not reach up to the last power poles of the observing field. We replaced the antenna and tweaked the configuration settings and we both had 4 bars (max) signal strength at the west end of the observing field. However, even with max signal strength, we observed the internet connection coming and going. I checked on the satellite modem and the satellite connected uplink and downlink lights would sometimes shutoff. I don't know if this is because of the modem itself, the satellite dish being somewhat out of alignment or if the satellite network was having issues. I am POSITIVE, though, that the WiFi signal to the field is good. What I would like to ask is that over the next month anyone who goes to the DSS and tried to use the internet please email me and/or the Yahoo group about how many bars of signal strength you had, where you were in the field and the quality of your internet connection: was it consistent, was it intermittent, was it non-existent, etc. More information is better. I don't want to call the satellite company until I have enough information as I doubt they will come out to the DSS for free. Thanks. Rick Henderson

David, I did not see the Sun Spot. I found it difficult to focus because the limb was sharp through a wide adjustment range. I could not identify a sweet spot for focus. I plan to use it to display the partial eclipse before and after the 8/21 total eclipse. This, it will display nicely. I have the pdf of the Sun Gun design manual. It is 57 pages, but only three are required for parts and assembly. The others are boiler plate or their design calculations. I found an editing error in their design calculations and reported it to the authors. (I can’t build anything without understanding the math first.)

Subject:RE: [ASKC] FW: Invitation to the Scientific Symposium IV on August 18-21
Message:
Hi Everyone, I reached out to Tom Allen to learn some more about their invitation to the club to bring some volunteers to set up telescopes for a night of observing the weekend before the solar eclipse. He seemed very nice and very enthusiastic about the cosmos as does this group of ~100 people. The original message mentioned observing Sunday night but he said Saturday night would be better, though we are welcome to attend both nights. I mentioned that Sunday would not be the best night since many people will be preparing for the eclipse Monday. I originally planned to go help out but I now have to travel for work that week and won't be home until Friday night. I let him know I'm "50/50" but will pass the info along to the club and let him know if others can attend. As I mentioned, there should be pretty dark skies there a few miles outside Lawson, MO. If you are interested, let me know and I will help co-ordinate with Tom. Below are his responses to my inquiries. Thanks, Brad Summary answers to my questions: --We will have a special banquet Sunday night, so Saturday night would be the best. Set up time is your call. Dinner will be at 6 pm, so anytime after 7 pm or so would be fine. --Mostly adults, very few children and a few teenagers. We will have over 100 people to enjoy the sights. --You and anyone from your Astronomy Club are welcome to camp out at the Wilderness camp if you so like on Sunday night to view the eclipse Monday. You have an open invitation to do so. Hi Brad, We would love to have you come out to our Symposium. We would be so grateful to have your astronomical expertise available to our wondering and appreciative audience. We call our symposium SSIV which is the fourth Scientific Symposium put on by Urantia Book readers since 1988. Here is the link to our registration website: http://tsquest.org/event/scientific-symposium-iv-science-and-spirituality/ I hope that after you look into what the Urantia Book is, that you will not be wary of the people you would encounter at our symposium. We are certainly not a strange cult of believers ready to drink poison Koolaid from a demented cult leader, nor do we have any required dogmas or doctrines. We are a diverse and eclectic group of ecumenical believers in the Unity of God through the philosophical coordination of science and religion. Of course in any religious movement of any kind, there will be a few estranged individuals, but I guarantee that you will find an overwhelmingly balanced group of loving individuals who are definitely not out to proselytise, but to enjoy the company of fellow believers in the eternal love of God with admiration of his role as the Scientist in Chief and Architect of our limitless cosmos. If you or someone you know would like to give an overview of eclipse science in a Saturday or Sunday presentation, that would be wonderful. We would be thrilled to have you and others come out Saturday and Sunday night for star-gazing and of course for Monday eclipse observance. Feel free to spread the word around. You will find us a very welcoming and loving group of people. My phone number is below, so feel free to call and talk. I can tell you so much more about what to expect. In great anticipation, Tom Allen Program Chair SSIV 405-570-6862 Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@yahoo.com

You might want to intensify your efforts to tell friends about ASKC eclipse glasses. We are currently selling them for $1 each and that's a bargain. We not only sell on line and at club events but people are coming by my house to pick them up. Hi-Vee is selling them for $3.49. Westlake is selling a package for $8. Riverside is hosting and event and selling glasses for $5! If you use facebook, please spread the word that we have them for $1. Also mention we have Baddar film for camera filters at cost. You an make a filter for your camera or telescope for a few dollars. I still have a limited quantity of free eclipse glasses that are intended to be distributed to "under served" organizations that can not afford to purchase them. Please tell me if know of an organization that qualifies. I have already distributed several thousand and I want to be sure the remaining glasses go to worthy organizations. As August approaches we will likely either run out of our ASKC branded glasses or raise the price. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Subject:Eclipse information
Message:
We have gotten a nice response to a posting on Nextdoor about the eclipse and eclipse glasses. Here is the message I posted for the South Kansas City Living area. You are welcome to post it to your area or any other site you might belong to. You may wish to delete the Lipari's reference since that's at Red Bridge and Holmes. Thanks for helping get the message out. Total Solar Eclipse 2017......Protect your eyes while you watch the event! <https://southkcliving.nextdoor.com/news_feed/?post=55951195> Do you have eclipse glasses to watch the partial phases of the upcoming eclipse? Areas south of Kansas City will experience 98%-99% coverage, but that's not enough to observe without protection. Using proper eye protection is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL to avoid eye injury from prolonged exposure to the light (energy) from the sun. Sunglasses, most welder’s glass, exposed camera film and any other “old wive’s” ideas are absolutely NOT USABLE. The Astronomical Society of Kansas City has eclipse glasses (and t-shirts) at the club's web site askc.org/events/solar-eclipse-2017 (click on “store”), Powell Observatory in Louisburg every Saturday night, its General Meeting July 22 on the UMKC Volker Campus, or you can call 913.438.3825 to arrange a time to pick some up (glasses only). Lipari's Sunfresh at Holmes and Red Bridge in south Kansas City, also has ASKC's glasses for sale. -- Marcia youngrmarcia@...

In case you are interested. Here is info on this months Science Caf! Jackie B. Subject: JULY SCIENCE CAFE, JULY 12, 2017 -Coach's Bar & Grill, 135th and Grandview - Overland Park. 5:30-6:00 dinner - 6:30 PROGRAM #2 Hello, Science Enthusiasts! We are on for our July Science Caf. This month, we have as our speaker, Daniel Hawblitzel, of NOAA Federal. That is, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, also known locally as the National Weather Service! He is going to talk about all that they do there, at the Pleasant Hill office, I believe. He is also the man who handles all their social media, and I hear he has some pretty entertaining stories tell. Remember, come about 5:30 if youd like to leisurely have dinner prior to the program (Coachs likes us to do that). Coachs is 1 block south of 135th street, on Grandview there is a Hy-Vee Gas Station on the north side of 135th and Grandview. In August, on the 9th, it will again be that Eclipse Chaser you heard last summer all about the August 21st total solar eclipse. The program will be updated with new stuff, pointers, things not to forget, and some things TO forget. All questions will be answered, and eclipse glasses will be available for $1 if you dont already have them. In case you missed last years program, the speaker will be a veteran of seeing 9 total eclipses of the sun, and 2 annular eclipses. Yours Truly, Me.

Hello All, we are back and not AWOL, Rita and I returned very late last night. The past three weeks have been wild with astronomy excursions involving the Girl Scouts. First Expedition-Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC): I selected two Senior scouts to join Rita and I at GSFC in Greenbelt, MD for Reaching For The Stars. This is a joint venture program with GSA, SETI Institute and GSFC for a week long training program with Lou Mayo and other Heliophysicists. This is a two year commitment for us and a multi-year program for GSA-SETI and GSFC. One of the folks giving a talk and spending time with us was Nobel Laureate, John Mather. The girls treated him like a rock star. Second Expedition: Mt. Lemmon Sky Center-U of A-Steward Observatory GSA had a first ever Astronomy Destinations camp at Mt. Lemmon. Rita, Don McCarthy, Larry Lebofsky , a couple of other helpers and I hosted 24 Girl Scouts from around the country for this nearly week long experience. We were hired by U of A/Steward Observatory as Educational Specialist for this project. We used the 24" RC telescope for visual and CCD imaging. While we had permission to use the McMath-Pierce Solar Telescope at Kitt Peak, logistics prevented this. The Burro Wildfire ended our use of the 61" Kuiper Telescope at Mt. Bigelow. However, all in all, it was a great experience for all the girls and the staff. It was also interesting seeing the flashes as the tress exploded in fireballs. Not so fun was being evacuated at 0600 Monday morning. We watched a lot of manpower and equipment roll up the mountain road. In the coming weeks we will be getting a packages from Larry of original prints from an early Moon orbiter. These are about 28"x28" and I think you will find them quite interesting to view. We are looking forward to our return trip this Fall to be on staff for another event at the Biosphere II. In reality, yes, I wish I was still in Tucson. We looked at some areas for living.

Subject:Camp Doniphan - Another Eclipse Opportunity
Message:
Today I got notice that Camp Doniphan (Lake Doniphan Conference and Retreat Center) in Excelsior Springs, MO is working out the details on opening up the camp for eclipse viewing. At the present time, they are planning on charging $10 per person for normal entrance but will be willing to forgo charging members of ASKC willing to set up scopes for public viewing. I let them know that there might be some ASKC members willing to set up at this location but pending clouds may have to re-locate. and would not show up. They were very interested in having us make the day a success and will have more information for me when details are completely worked out. The upper dam has 2 min 31.5 sec of totality. 39deg 19' 37.5" N 94deg 11' 43.1" W I discussed allowing set up the day before so scopes can be star aligned the night before the eclipse. Some camping and campers is allowed (there are some RV hook ups). There is electricity (long run to the dam) and bathrooms with running water. They plan on having food service in the lodge on a pay per person basis (air conditioned building). They will have the pool open and available during certain hours on the eclipse day and possibly the day before. If you are interested in this venue for viewing and sharing a scope (before and after the eclipse) please e-mail me directly with name and contact so I can give them some notice as to how many members that would be willing to be there. For this info I will start looking at our BirdTunaBear@yahoo.com e-mail (normally don't use this one) and will start looking at replies to this post. Thanks, Gary Martin 816-922-9529

I am the resident program manager at Brookdale Overland Park Glenwood. With the upcoming eclipse my seniors are very interested in having someone come to our community to give a presentation on astronomy. Is there someone in your organization who can help with this? A star gazing event would not work too well because most of the residents go to bed too early and the summer sun sets too late. Something during the day time would be perfect. Just a suggestion would be a telescope with a sun filter to look at sun spots? I’m sure you folks have lots of good ideas because you are, after all, the experts.J I’m hoping I’m not too late with my request to get you out here in August. I look forward to hearing back from you. Kathy Detrie Resident Program Manager Closer relationships live here every day.

Subject:Warko Tonight and Incorrect Information
Message:
Since this morning's Fox4-WDAF eclipse segment gave incorrect information about the opening time and location, we will be prepared with a TSE2017 presentation and solar scopes. I will have more printed signs for first floor doors and garage entrances noting go to Level 4 for parking.

Well, I can’t help with the number of visitors, as I didn’t close out the “machine”…. Jason can help with that.

Gary -- programs (non-stop) Alan Lehman and I -- 30" Mike Larkin and Matt Forst -- gate Dana Ulmo -- LCT David Young -- solar scope, etc. Jackie Beucher -- eclipse talks, etc. Jason Forst -- training, etc. etc. Casey -- gate, etc. I believe there were 5 or 6 field scopes, but I did not see who 2 or 3 people were. I just know of Gil Machin, Kathy Machin, and Jerel Williams. Somebody with a better memory can fill in the blanks. The line for the 30" was way out the gate when we had to close the dome for the fireworks. People just stood where they were and watched the fireworks, which worked out well. Because the line never let up until our last customer at 12:30 a.m. and everyone wanted to see Jupiter and its 4 moons, the 30" stayed on it... except at about 12:20 when we moved it to Saturn and a few remaining people looked at it. We locked up and left a little after 1:00 a.m. I know we had one new family membership and a lot of people. Questions to be answered from last night: Why were the fireworks set up sooooo close to us? Does Gary have a voice this morning? Exactly how many people keep their toddlers up past midnight on Saturday night? Why, when nobody has ever asked about that little dome next to the main observatory, several people wanted to know what it was for and what was inside it? Moonlight illumination, perhaps?

Your new Daystar telescope with a Quark H-Alpha filter did NOT fail. It had beautiful close up images of a large prominence and a decent image of the big sunspot. It performed very nicely even with the low sun angle. You will need to get something like a 55mm eyepiece to get a larger field of view. The Quark is internally barlowed and thus has a smaller field of view than you might expect. All I had with me for you test run was a 32mm and a 40 mm Televue plosl;.

Answers to some of the questions to be answered about last night. The fireworks have been set up in EXACTLY the same place for years. Gary is probably resting his voice today. There were a bunch of toddlers but no one has a count. Many people have asked about that little dome while waiting in line for the 30" The moon WAS VERY bright last night so maybe more asked because they could see it? A fun night. One fellow out in the west side had a rather nice looking telescope but couldn't get it to focus. I fiddled a little with it a little and he claimed he had used it several times before and it worked just fine. It's the simple things that will bite you. It had a telescoping truss that wasn't pulled all the way out. Hard to spot in the dark. I start getting nervous when we have so much cash in the till. When Mars did it's close approach a few years ago we were hiding money in the AIC now and then. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

The fireworks have been set up in EXACTLY the same place for years. Gary is probably resting his voice today. There were a bunch of toddlers but no one has a count. Many people have asked about that little dome while waiting in line for the 30" The moon WAS VERY bright last night so maybe more asked because they could see it? A fun night. One fellow out in the west side had a rather nice looking telescope but couldn't get it to focus. I fiddled a little with it a little and he claimed he had used it several times before and it worked just fine. It's the simple things that will bite you. It had a telescoping truss that wasn't pulled all the way out. Hard to spot in the dark. I start getting nervous when we have so much cash in the till.

I just know of Gil Machin, Kathy Machin, and Jerel Williams. Somebody with a better memory can fill in the blanks. The line for the 30" was way out the gate when we had to close the dome for the fireworks. People just stood where they were and watched the fireworks, which worked out well. Because the line never let up until our last customer at 12:30 a.m. and everyone wanted to see Jupiter and its 4 moons, the 30" stayed on it... except at about 12:20 when we moved it to Saturn and a few remaining people looked at it. We locked up and left a little after 1:00 a.m. I know we had one new family membership and a lot of people. Questions to be answered from last night: Why were the fireworks set up sooooo close to us? Does Gary have a voice this morning? Exactly how many people keep their toddlers up past midnight on Saturday night? Why, when nobody has ever asked about that little dome next to the main observatory, several people wanted to know what it was for and what was inside it? Moonlight illumination, perhaps?

An Orion dob that tracks? We tried lying to Jackie's mount and it insisted on two alignment stars. There may be another Orion mount that only needs one star. That's the way an old Celestron mount I had worked. You just pointed it anywhere near where you knew a star was in the daytime and it started tracking well enough to keep the sun in the field for 10 minutes or so before you had to tweak it. A gps equipped cube grabs time, location etc and slews to the oject you chose from the menu. When used with the sun you need to tell it to go with to the sun, then center the sun and then just let it track. If you have the mount level it will keep the sun centered for HOURS. if you sync it on the sun after you center it, after sunset you just tell it to go to something else and it's in there. I've synced on the sun and then went to Jupiter in broad daylight. Jackie will figure out what she needs for her use. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Message:
Joel, I liked it. It was 107°F, but the humidity was 10-13%! Every where you went, they would offer a cold bottle of water. Then again, at 9,200ft it was about 81°F. When we were evacuated we were 1 mile from the wildfire and the smoke did concern me a little. I kept a couple of masks with me. My psoriatic arthritis and asthma wasn't a problem. We packed a lot into our time there. We stayed at La Posada on North Oracle and watch the fireworks from "A" Mountain on the evening of July 4th. Plans are to have us return this Fall for an event at the Biosphere II were we will again be on staff. It has been a wild ride. Never in my life would I have figured I could call the head astronomer of the NSO/McMath-Pierce telescope and ask if anyone was using it and be told it is open and we could use it. Rita had to push me onto the plane as we were leaving. However, we never made it to El Charro for our traditional meal, nor did I get my usual hot dog at the Wienerschnitzel. Times are a changing I guess. I did submit some employment applications and made contacts while I was there. We had lunch with the Levy's and brought the remaining interview tapes (108) back with us for Linda Hall Library. Larry Lebofsky is interested in visiting KC again. He is the third recipient of the Carl Sagan Award and a member of the ASKC. Tucson is for me. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

The past three weeks have been wild with astronomy excursions involving the Girl Scouts. First Expedition-Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC): I selected two Senior scouts to join Rita and I at GSFC in Greenbelt, MD for Reaching For The Stars. This is a joint venture program with GSA, SETI Institute and GSFC for a week long training program with Lou Mayo and other Heliophysicists. This is a two year commitment for us and a multi-year program for GSA-SETI and GSFC. One of the folks giving a talk and spending time with us was Nobel Laureate, John Mather. The girls treated him like a rock star. Second Expedition: Mt. Lemmon Sky Center-U of A-Steward Observatory GSA had a first ever Astronomy Destinations camp at Mt. Lemmon. Rita, Don McCarthy, Larry Lebofsky , a couple of other helpers and I hosted 24 Girl Scouts from around the country for this nearly week long experience. We were hired by U of A/Steward Observatory as Educational Specialist for this project. We used the 24" RC telescope for visual and CCD imaging. While we had permission to use the McMath-Pierce Solar Telescope at Kitt Peak, logistics prevented this. The Burro Wildfire ended our use of the 61" Kuiper Telescope at Mt. Bigelow. However, all in all, it was a great experience for all the girls and the staff. It was also interesting seeing the flashes as the tress exploded in fireballs. Not so fun was being evacuated at 0600 Monday morning. We watched a lot of manpower and equipment roll up the mountain road. In the coming weeks we will be getting a packages from Larry of original prints from an early Moon orbiter. These are about 28"x28" and I think you will find them quite interesting to view. We are looking forward to our return trip this Fall to be on staff for another event at the Biosphere II. In reality, yes, I wish I was still in Tucson. We looked at some areas for living.

Message:
I just Got this notice… take a look! Some artistic license was taken, but just ignore that…. Jackie B. ___________________________________________ IT'S HERE!!! Today is the debut of the online streaming video series "Eclipse Across America" by noted eclipse filmmaker Mark Liston Bender. This is slick video production, dedicated to the 2017 American eclipse. Also, it is a “pre-eclipse” presentation, to help the American public prepare for Eclipse Day. Please check it out and share with all your friends. This would be a great series to feature for all the local eclipse festivals along the 3000 mile path of totality, from coast-to-coast across the USA.

Subject:KCPL stuff
Message:
If you live in the right part of Kansas City, Missouri there's a few KCPL programs that can save you some serious money. If you own your home KCPL will do an energy audit. They come to your house and take a look at your insulation, HVAC system etc and make recommendations. Then they GIVE you 9 led light bulbs and a smart surge protected power strip for your electronic stuff. They change out your shower heads if you want to low flow heads and change the aerators on your faucets. You can also get a FREE Nest thermostat. It's simple to install. I have mine also tied to my smart phone so I can remotely control it remotely If you participate for a while you get $50 cash in a few months. Use the $50 to buy astronomy stuff:-) Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Message:
“Galileo’s Daughter” is probably one of the best astronomy books I have ever read. Maybe it’s because it was about Galileo and his daughter, Maria Celeste…. I loved my dad a lot, too. I will tell you this much, though. In 2006, I was in Florence, Italy, and visited the Basilica of Santa Croce. As you walk in, to your right is the tomb of Michelangelo…. And to your left is the tomb of Galileo – beautiful and at least 25 ft tall. It wasn’t his first tomb, though, as the pope wouldn’t let him be buried inside the church when he died, due to his situation with the church. However… in 1737, he was moved into the church into his well-deserved new tomb. After reading the book, and learning some interesting background information, all I could do was just stand there and cry. It was one of those moments in life that you remember forever. Read the book to know why the visit affected me so much, and in the process, learn a lot about Galileo! Jackie B.

Yes, but shadow speeds vary from one eclipse to another. This time the shadow will be moving at just under 1500 mph when it crosses KC. Even a Concorde couldn't keep up with this one. There are some flights that are going to fly the path and gain a few seconds of totality. I think their primary purpose for observing in flight is to get above but as much air as they can.

There isn’t a plane fast enough for that anymore (that we know of….). The shadow is going 2200 mph as it hits the Oregon coast, but does slow down a bit by the time it gets here – 1500 mph give or take. Big jets have flown along the path of the shadow, but they can’t keep up with it for very long. They do manage to lengthen being in totality, but only by minutes. And besides, if we could do that on your “what if” question, there would be a LOT of unhappy Americans with the sound barrier getting broke all that way!!! Jackie B.

Yes, as long as you are traveling about 1500 MPH which is roughly the ground speed of the lunar shadow. This has been done I believe by the Concorde years ago. Dave Hudgins

Yes, but shadow speeds vary from one eclipse to another. This time the shadow will be moving at just under 1500 mph when it crosses KC. Even a Concorde couldn't keep up with this one. There are some flights that are going to fly the path and gain a few seconds of totality. I think their primary purpose for observing in flight is to get above but as much air as they can.

A quick look at one of the eclipse maps shows the start of totality on west coast and east coast in UT (17:15-18:45)- about an hour and a quarter to cross the US. If I read that right..... That shadow is really moving. So in terms of flying in a normal plane across the US, not hours and hours.

Mike, In today's world you are talking about military aircraft; however, it s unlikely they would do it for long as that may reveal top speed and range which may be secrete. However, if you can wit around a good number of years you have another story. The design work for Concord 2.0 has been completed. It is expected to fly in 30 - 40 years. With a top speed of over 2,500/mph and no ground noise issues it is just what you are asking for. All you need to do is be patient!!! Cost as a passenger? I do want to hear it. Again, be patient.

We had a busy night at Powell, with 182 visiting. Debbie Harrelson and Keith Green presented the program 6 or 7 times, with Jackie Beucher assisting with the eclipse portion. Randy Thompson and Paul Macek did their usual fabulous job in the dome. Thanks to team members Randy Thompson, Debbie Harrelson, Keith Green, David Preston and Richard Schoenberger for their tremendous help tonight. Also thanks to team helper Seth Seagraves for his outstanding contribution at the gate. In the field, Pete Jefferis and team member, Richard Schoenberger, once again set up their scopes and shared the sky with tons of visitors. Dana Ulmo handled the Louisburg Community Telescope and David Hudgins did lots of astronomical teaching in the field. I hope I didn't miss anyone who assisted with the group effort tonight. By the way, next Saturday night's team needs to bring lots of $1 bills. In the cash box we were only able to leave $20 in $1 bills and $80 in $5 bills. Great night for astronomy at Powell!

U-2's are still being used. They are ER-2 and are being used for Environmental Research. While at Neil Armstrong Flight Research Facility (aka Dryden), we seen two of them in the hanger and outside being prepared. However, I do believe their top speed was under Mach and therefore couldn't keep up with the shadow. The ones we saw and got to photograph (selectively) were being prepared for the next flight mission to image and collect data on lightning. The cockpit is still classified. They were tested for carrier operations and did one mission from a carrier. They are housed in the same hanger of SOFIA. So, we got right up to them and talked with the researchers.

Really enjoyed the visit. 54 minutes from Los Angeles to Washington, DC when the one on display @ NASM was delivered. Record still stands. There is a comment in one of the books about flying the SR-71, which was flown by dead reckoning navigation that if you muffed a timing you could miss a state by the time you figured out your booboo. So you had to be good at flying. The INAV system in the plane was used to figure out where it had been. It was not routed to the pilot to use for navigation. The information recorded digitally in that system was taken along with the film, and the two were mated in a processing facility to give location information to the analysts when the film was developed. I was involved with a project to eliminate all of the post flight hardware but for one box that read the data from the airframe computer and originally recorded it on half in 9 track tape to be processed by a Fortran program, to replace that with a hardware converter to go to a Sun solaris laptop. Sun had bid and guaranteed they could port all the fortran and ADA language code to run on the laptop. The whole thing died with the NASA plane being parked. Alas, SR-71's don't fly w/o an air wing of special KC-135's that the Air Force wanted to retire worse than the SR-71 itself. That is where most of the $2B / year cost lied, not the aircraft itself. And taking off from Edwards zooming for 20 m never found a project or budget. Someone may have better data, but you didn't get much air time w/o going pretty much to refuel immediately after takeoff. thanks Jim Stephens

Message:
Ok all you geometry wizs out there.... The Moon at roughly 238,000 miles covers about 1/2 degree that nicely covers the Sun at roughly 93,000,000 miles. If there would be a way to place a satellite in orbit, say at 300 miles altitude, how big would it have to be to cover the Sun? Don't worry about the logistics of getting the orbit so that its shadow would hit the Earth at a specific location. Just how big of a disc would it have to be to get a eclipse path a few miles wide. I know that when the shuttle or the ISS, at about 240 miles, cross the face of the Sun, they are TINY, so this disc would have to be HUGE. Wouldn't it be awesome to see total solar eclipses all the time?

Scott, In the situation you outlined one must realize the satellite would be traveling about 28 times faster than the moon. Thus, totality would last (1/28) as much as the moon totality. In other words very short and perhaps too short to notice unless one was very much prepared. As far as the size of the satellite would be of the 2.5 miles. Anything else?

If the satellite were in solar orbit the selfie might work, but we already have SOHO, and IRIS watching the sun all the time and I think one or both have that capability. 😎 DT > On Jul 16, 2017, at 10:36 PM, joel falk joelhfks@...

I feel the need to share. Have you received any of those calls asking for Leroy, Tasha or someone else. When you say no the recording launches into "Ok, maybe you can help me" and the sales pitch starts. Instead of saying no, say just a minute I'll go get him/her they are in the other room feeding the baby. Sudden silence ensues.😈 Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Message:
If you have caller ID here's a hint you might find useful to reduce robo-calls: Hit *61 after hanging up on any robo-call. That puts whatever number called on an automatic reject list (up to 100 phone numbers). So at least you won't get more calls from that number. I've been doing this for the past 3 months, and the number of robo-calls I get now are down at least 50%. While not perfect, it is very worthwhile. Dave Hudgins

Who is your phone service provider? Is that feature a function of your provider or your physcial telephone system. My problem is I have to answer all unknown calls since I answer calls for the ASKC information and reservation line and it is forwarded to my cell phone. ASKC uses Verizon for the phone service. There's a little box in my office that provides the phone line over the Verizon network. I have a land line phone set on the desk but I keep that line forwarded to my cell phone so I can answer it anywhere/any time. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

That puts whatever number called on an automatic reject list (up to 100 phone numbers). So at least you won't get more calls from that number. I've been doing this for the past 3 months, and the number of robo-calls I get now are down at least 50%. While not perfect, it is very worthwhile. Dave Hudgins

The SR-71 at Offutt's museum (I lived 1 block from it during part of grade school -- no I don't have any parts and was never inside any of those aircraft at night) did indeed make the move to the new museum along I-80. It is in the entryway. My brother has materials from his time in navy at the museum. The building is large enough to house a B-36. Hella-big airplane. One of my favorite photos of son Matt is him in a stroller at the nose wheel of that SR-71 while it was at the old location. Jason.

Most of you know the ASKC has a new Lunt solar scope. This scope is a double stack pressure tune model that is a little different to operate. At the moment I have this telescope at my house. Anyone who would like to be trained on how to use this telescope and an iOptron mount like the one we use at Powell is welcome to give me a call and set up a time. I intend to play with it often so you might as well join me and learn how to tweak the adjustments. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Subject:Question Car Inverter for Laptop and other uses
Message:
Question if anyone knows... I need help finding a car inverter we can use during our all night astronomy observing sessions.Top priority would be to run one laptop.Second wish list is if it could also run a floor fan.Third wish list is if company (2 additional laptops - three total) could run all night. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We often go observing at a spot where there is no electricity. I use Stellarium for star hopping but my laptop battery doesn't go a full 7 hours (we do all-nighters). So I thought I would get a car inverter to run the laptop off throughout the night. And during the summer, I'd like to also run a floor fan so that Leif and I get some relief from the heat while we observe at our telescopes. We're hoping to observe this Friday but even at 8pm, when we'll start to set up, it'll be 93 with a 'feel' of 103! I'm looking on Amazon and there are so many voltage choices. I realize a laptop doesn't take much power. But on the flip side you need to make sure it also doesn't get over powered. But a fan would take much more power to run all night? Is it possible to have an inverter that could handle both or just stick with getting one for the fan? Here is where I'm looking on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_nr_p_n_is-min-purchase-_0?fst=as%3Aoff&rh=n%3A15684181%2Cn%3A%2115690151%2Cn%3A15706941%2Cn%3A387679011%2Cn%3A583328%2Cp_85%3A2470955011%2Cp_n_is-min-purchase-required%3A5016683011&bbn=583328&ie=UTF8&qid=1500517743&rnid=5016682011 Any and all suggestions and help is appreciated. If nothing else, suggestions on a inverter where I can run at least one laptop off of all night. And with the option to run up to three laptops would be awesome. Throw in a floor fan and I'm over the moon! : ) Thanks, everyone! Thanks,Cindy BahlCindyLChesley@...@...816-812-9908

My brain is mush from work. But, hopefully between Leif and I we will remember to bring to cookies. : )Oreos sound good to everyone? An astronomer's favorite! Fyi - Good friend of mine, Alex Vahldick, has been doing astronomy for years, when he's had time. He's getting back into it more and more and we've observed together a few times. I keep raving about our club and he's finally got a chance to attend one of our meetings this Saturday night.

Message:
The power supplies for all of my laptops indicate a maximum output of 90 watts. Published guesses for a 20" Lasko box fan from Wallmart indiczate 170 watt draw. Harbor Freight sells a 400 watt inverter for $25 and a 750 watt inverter for $40. So in theory you could run two laptops with the 400 watt one and have some leeway. In reality I have found that the starting surge of a motor can overload the small inverters. I have a 2000 watt inverter that will trip if I try to run a small fan.

Subject:TWO MO WINERIES - WANT AN "ASTRONOMER" THERE ON 8-21-17 WITH FILTERED TELESCOPE, ETC.
Message:
Hello - We have requests from two wineries up north of here, very close to the center line, who want an astronomer there on August 21st, with telescopes, etc. They have invited their customers, and would like an eclipse expert to be there. Food and wine are probably involved for you. Now.. I know many of you are staying "mobile", and in the event of bad weather, will want to drive like crazy to get somewhere else. They might be able to live with that, if there is nothing to be seen locally. Also, I have talked to one of them, and they won't mind if you bring your close family and even friends. Think about it, and please email me separately if you are interested in doing this. Thanks!

Subject:Re: Question Car Inverter for Laptop and other uses
Message:
I have been running 2 inverters for years in my van with dual batteries. I have tried the cheap ones at Harbor Freight and found that there is a huge difference in quality and real power ratings. After burning out several including the 1000 watt unit I no longer will use them. The 1000 watt unit I use now use will run a small refrigerator when driving down the road. But... It is a good practice to not come close to exceeding the inverter rating especially the cheaper ones. Do the math on batteries. They have an amp hour rating. Inverters will draw larger amps with larger loads. Add in an efficiency factor - might only be 80% efficient. Only use deep cycle batteries because a standard car battery will be permanently damaged after just one total discharge. I've observed all night but did run the van for an hour to charge up the deep cycle batteries because of dew heaters, fans, and a big monitor plus computers. Might have to think about a small generator for AC for eclipse. Gary Martin

Subject:Shadow Bands Project
Message:
This information just came across the EarthSkyNews website. Elizabeth Brown Dr. Satyendra Bhandari http://www.eclipsechasers.in/sew.html, of Ahmedabad in India, wishes to organize an International Shadow Band Campaign during the approaching total eclipse. If you expect to be in or very near to the track of totality on August 21, 2017 http://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/total-eclipse-of-sun-august-21-2017, he encourages you to write to him: space.scientist @ gmail.com He will no doubt send instructions on the simple observations needed, and some of his interesting thinking about shadow bands. He is working on a Manual of Shadow Band Observations and once shared a draft copy of it on SEML http://www.mreclipse.com/Special/SENLinfo.htm (the eclipse listserve). He is also preparing an introductory book on the subject. He regards shadow bands as one of the important effects of eclipse on the Earth environment. The transition between daylight and darkness at sunset is “routine” and gentle, he says, but the transition at the onset of total eclipse is a “shock” to the atmosphere, through which the moon’s shadow is moving with supersonic speed. Bottom line: Want to take part in an International Shadow Band Campaign during the August 21, 2017 total solar eclipse. Write to Satyendra Bhandari: space.scientist @ gmail.com

Good job, Joe! I have been telling people that Science City is NOT in the totality shadow and recommending that they get north of City Hall and down towards the Central Library where they are partying on the rooftop and beyond if they can't make it across the river. The northlanders that I speak to all figure they will just stay home and enjoy. Elizabeth

According to the Totality Map, no part of the greater Kansas City area will enjoy a TOTAL eclipse. In the north part of North KC, it will be a 98% eclipse. This is NOT totality. The sun will still be very bright, and special eclipse glasses will be needed. Ron Abbott

I'm not sure which map you're looking at but this info seems to be pretty far off. According to the Xavier Jubier maps, North KC will get over 1 minute and 10 seconds of totality. It also looks like River Market downtown will get 31 seconds. As far South as Peculiar will still get 99% at maximum.

The southern line of totality runs right between City Hall and the Courthouse, down town, according to the NASA folks that were here a month ago. So… yes…. North of there is totality, but very short in NKC. Where I used to work, they get a minute, -- Universal at the north end, off of Front Street. It is a bit farther south there.

Subject:The Edge of Totality in Downtown KC
Message:
Last year I had a discussion with several members about the fact that there are numerous "maps" of the path of totality and discrepancies among them. If you check www.eclipse2017.org http://www.eclipse2017.org and look at the maps for Missouri and then click on the maps for Kansas City you will see that indeed, there are areas of downtown that are in the path of totality - seconds, yes, but the path is there. North Kansas City is also in the shadow of totality. The maps in Astronomy magazine also show the path as going through part of downtown KC. Michael Bakich mentioned this fact in his talks to us at the HOASP last year; he had a good laugh as Science City misses it by blocks. Granted, it gets dicey along the very edge of the path of totality, but there are areas of downtown that will experience (seconds, granted) totality.

Message:
Last evening Jerel Williams and I hosted a small family at Powell for a private night, billed to the family as a birthday gift to one of the attendees. Turns out Jerel and I were in on the ruse: we assisted in a proposal of marriage between two lovely young people. The proposal took place at the eyepiece while looking a a wonderful view of Saturn in the Ruisinger 30", while Jerel was herding the youngsters in the classroom I managed to draw the rest of the family out of the dome -- not planned that way but the proposer took advantage of the quiet moment. The proposee was completely surprised, as she was speechless for awhile. Champagne was opened and s small celebration ensued. Family left around 2300, and Jerel and I continued with a few more globular clusters with the now engaged couple. A very enjoyable evening to participate in, plus seeing was quite good; Cassini division in Saturn's rings easily visible, and wisps of the milky way popped out early. Jason

Sorry but not even close to a first. There have been several engagements and weddings. My favorite was a few years ago. Everyone but the young lady knew what was going on.

The proposal took place at the eyepiece while looking a a wonderful view of Saturn in the Ruisinger 30", while Jerel was herding the youngsters in the classroom I managed to draw the rest of the family out of the dome -- not planned that way but the proposer took advantage of the quiet moment.

Is there any kind of list of the various locations in which ASKC members will be gathering to view the eclipse? Mostly, I am interested in public locations, not private. The university is asking. Don't worry, you will not be hosting or having to lead anything. Along these same lines, as with the St. Joe airport, give me some kind of idea as to location.

I think that's one reason the districts are keeping kids in. Middle school and older ought to get it if they have had proper instruction but then you get into defiance. No good answer. As long as the kids get to watch the NASA feed, the teaching ought to be covered. Not as good as the real thing but better than injury or nothing. And not being penalized for eclipse absences is good. Marcia youngrmarcia@... On Jul 26, 2017 11:17 AM, "Chris Brandt chbrandt@...

Subject:Small Children Safely Viewing the Eclipse
Message:
It is an important topic to discuss and should be the decision of parents as to whether they want their kid to be in school and if they are, whether or not to go outside to watch the eclipse. This is going to come up more often the closer we get to the eclipse day. I've been telling people in my talks to carefully watch the younger children and perhaps use the pinhole viewer method with them, or a colander or their fingers whichever works best. I see that the Shawnee district plans to release some kind of guidelines for the teachers to follow. Hopefully, we won't have to deal with a lot of hysteria associated with bad info from the internet, but I'll bet stuff crops up the closer we get to the day. I've already had someone ask me about the "snakes" that will appear during the eclipse - reference to the shadow bands, which is why I don't mention shadow bands unless someone asks me. Gonna get real interesting from here on out folks and we need to be alert to politely correcting bad information when we learn about it. Elizabeth

Jackie, The style is very common, and is often used when someone is a where of potential problems with no easy way out. It can be hard enough to control a teenager let alone an elementary school student. It is up to district what they do and they are aware of the eclipse and the safety issues. It is not appropriate for ASKC to say anything beyond the occurrence and safety procedures for the eclipse. If an officer of ASKC says something else and something goes wrong ASKC could be a very bad position! The district provided enough ways out for all students. Joel Falk From: "'Jackie Beucher' m31@...

To: youngmdavid@... Hi, David— Thanks so much for taking my call this morning even though you were at the doctor! :D Yes, I’m one of the unlucky ones who doesn’t have a room reserved in the area yet. But I just can’t NOT go see this!! I’m an arts educator and a scientific editor, and I can’t stay away from anything so magnificent. I’m taking the train from San Antonio and will arrive in KCMO on the afternoon of the 19th. As you say, all the accommodations in the area are either booked or are astronomical until the 22nd. I don’t have a lot of money, so I just don’t know what to do! I’m wondering if there is anything you know of— perhaps a family in the area with a spare couch? I don’t mind staying with people, helping with groceries, cooking, teaching kids.. whatever it takes. Does the Astronomical Society need eclipse-related art activities? Does someone need a manuscript edited?? lol— anything I can trade would be wonderful :) I appreciate your time and interest so much; you know how important and amazing this is!!! Thank you again SO much! —Ramona Soto ramonasoto@... PS— How wonderful you have that RV so you can take your home with you— a dream of mine, to be that mobile….

It can be hard enough to control a teenager let alone an elementary school student. It is up to district what they do and they are aware of the eclipse and the safety issues. It is not appropriate for ASKC to say anything beyond the occurrence and safety procedures for the eclipse.

David, Yes, indeed. Thanks for the heads up. We have already had inquiries. The manufacturer has certified that our glasses meet the 2015 ISO standards. The NASA website about safe viewing revised their flyer just last week. And of course it is in the news. It is a little more alarmist than what was on the website earlier in the year. Dr. Speck's presentation last Saturday made direct reference to it more than once. However, the caution is especially good for unaware customers searching desperately on-line for glasses at this late date. I expect to get more questions as we get closer to the event. As you know, we realized pretty quickly we were at a disadvantage because the first batch of glasses we had made for us did not have the ISO numbers on it. And we are probably too small to make any lists of recommended or "approved" sources, and probably too late. Until Dr. Speck spoke, I didn't even know there was actually a procedure, ad hoc as it is, for such a list. Since we got the certification, we updated the information on our website, on the flyer and stickers on the packets with the ISO information. When we sold out this year, we were able to changed the art work include the ISO info on the next batch. We sold out again a couple of weeks ago.

Price Chopper on 103rd and State line is selling Eclipse America glasses made by Rainbow Symphony for $1 each plus tax. It looked like they had about 75 on the counter. Sales were not brisk since you had to ask for them. I don't know how many they had in stock. Hi-Vee in Independence was selling them but ran out. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

What a terrific night weather-wise last night! We had over 70 visitors and nearly 25 attended the TSE2017 presentation before the viewing. By far, last night was kid night and we had a lot of them under age 15 and this is great. Many thanks to the regular staff and for the Machins setting up and giving a hand. Those there at 21:22 got to see the ISS pass to the north and were treated to steady views of Jupiter, Saturn and the Moon, as well as some other targets. Future events planned will be people's scope night inviting the public to bring their scope for some instruction on setup and use. Another night will be ADA night using the wheel chair mount eliminating tripod legs. I'll be printing some blank First Telescope Observation awards (made them for our grandkids) to keep on hand for the little ones.

Something changed last week. I am now "forbidden" access to this site. I have googled "sun and moon info" and have been given various other sites, but all of them use links to this same site, and when I click on the link, I get the same "forbidden" message!

Good Morning. Maybe I have missed something, but….. I don’t think everything is funneled to me. What some people may have missed is that I am forwarding on to the group some of the more interesting emails that I am getting from other national sources… from other eclipse chasers, for instance. I am simply sharing. Some of these are totally factual, and some are comments posted from non-astronomers. One important topic that came up a couple days ago is the nationwide scare about all types of eclipse/solar glasses. We thought it was important to share that with the group, so we could also clarify and assure our members of the top quality of the glasses the club is selling. I am Chair of the Eclipse Committee, so perhaps that is why some messages are sent to me, and rightly so.

Message:
I was able to see Mercury last night for its current elongation. Caught it with binoculars at 9:02 pm - exactly 1/2 hour after sunset. It was about two finger widths above the horizon and two hand widths south of where the sun had set. It did not get bright enough to see naked eye. Joe Alburty

I just got a strange e-mail from Amazon about a security breach wanting me to login via the e-mail link. The 'from address' is from a NASA link. This one doesn't smell right. If you have to check it out, I suggest going straight to Amazon. I deleted it. Jerel Jerel Williams membership@... <mailto:membership@...> jerel1948@... <mailto:jerel1948@...>

Message:
I am passing this along, for your info. Jackie B. I've received an email from Steve Wilcox of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory with their estimates of cloud-free percentages. Their analysis is interesting as it takes into account the cloud statistics for time of day as the eclipse progresses from west to east. They also account for sky clarity in their model. You'll find the study with maps at http://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy17osti/68885.pdf

Message:
Hi! I finally got in my t-shirt orders - picked up one in Lenexa and one in Tonganoxie. NOW I have to sort and fold them (over 240 of them...), and then fill orders that I've had to hold on to for 1.5 weeks.. Perhaps 20-25 orders or more. I sure would appreciate some help tomorrow, starting at 9:00 AM. I'd love to get them all to the post office ASAP. If you can come and help just a little, it would be great! My cell is below, and I live at 11305 King St., OP KS . Let me know if you can come! I'm off to an eclipse presentation shortly, and have to leave at 4:00 PM the next two days for presentations up north at Savannah and Gallatin. So, text me or email me, if you can help. THANKS!!!

I’m off to an eclipse presentation shortly, and have to leave at 4:00 PM the next two days for presentations up north at Savannah and Gallatin. So, text me or email me, if you can help. THANKS!!!

Subject:The Phone Call
Message:
On Monday 7/31 at 11:48 AM CDT I received a phone call from Leah Garchik of the San Francisco Chronicle. You may recall there was a discussion regarding a rather unusual statement about a solar eclipse. Ms. Garchik described the statement as stupid and she went on to say she knows what an eclipse is. She did not know where the statement was overheard. She appreciated knowing that some had attributed the statement to her and the fact this story (that she said it) was going around the country.

OK, what are recommendations for observing sites for people with mobility issues. Such as needing to get around with a walker? Handicap porta-johns? Stuff I never thought of? Yeah, the information is now relevant.... Gil and I have had to make a major change in our eclipse observing plans. Gil had a major fall, hairline fracture of the bone just below the ball on his right hip. Surgery planned for sometime Friday the 7th. The thinking seemed to be that he may be able to be out and about locally in time to see the eclipse. No travel advised to locations as distant as Casper due to blood clot risk. So, plans change. And now I am awake thinking of how we best plan ahead with these new conditions. Your ideas are welcome! -- Kathy Machin

Kathy (and Gil): So sorry to hear that. I assume restrictions will prevent you from using your camper. My thought would be to attempt to go to one of the "local" spots the club has available. Smithville Lake, the Higginsville farm or the Lathrop farm locations. Obviously you will want access to some shade while waiting for the event to commence. The Smithville Lake will be at a pavilion I believe. Liz B can confirm that. The Lathrop has some shade. Not familiar with the Higginsville location. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate so long distance driving wont be necessary. I know the Lathrop location has a restriction on the amount of people, but I'm sure Carroll Iorg can pull a few strings for your benefit. Hopefully, it will work out for you. Keep us posted on how the surgery goes and what your plans are. Don't hesitate to put out a call for help, as many club members will be out and about and willing to lend a hand if available.

I made a test drive to Smithville Lake to check out possible ways to get there. While I there I check I check out the visitor center and the shelter that has been reserved for ASKC. The visitor center was comfortable as it was air conditioned and the restroom was clean and a standard indoor restroom. While I cannot say the distance from the shelter to visitor I can say it was very close. Since I have bad allergies/asthma I expect to spend a reasonable amount of time in the visitor center with many trips back and forth. Hopefully the trip there will not be too difficult.

I know that Gil was at the Litton Center last October when we had our Eclipse Seminar and saw that the restroom there is ADA compliant. I will drive up to the lake either today or tomorrow to verify the state of the restroom that is next to our shelter. The West parking lot has a short gravel paved walkway to the shelter and restroom that is sloped slightly downhill, so a walker or wheelchair should be able to provide easy access. I am going to ask the Corps folks if we can reserve a few parking spots for ASKC members and guests. We have a gentleman coming from Calif who is 95 years young. I'll let you know what I find out. So sorry to hear about Gil's fall, you good folks will be in our thoughts and prayers for sure. Elizabeth

Surgery planned for sometime Friday the 7th. The thinking seemed to be that he may be able to be out and about locally in time to see the eclipse. No travel advised to locations as distant as Casper due to blood clot risk. So, plans change. And now I am awake thinking of how we best plan ahead with these new conditions.

Subject:?? Attending TSE2017 at St. Joe
Message:
Folks, I turned down a live TV interview at the end of the eclipse by the RASC (Royal Astronomical Society of Canada). If you are attending St. Joe, let me know in a private email and I will send them some names to contact. It doesn't matter if haven't seen one before. Honestly, I would prefer first timers. jos.wright@... Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Come join us at the museum and share the sky with up to 300 visitors. The view is very restricted with trees, but we will do our best. We will also need some help at the Warko this night. I will be there by 6pm. I plan to drop the astro trailer off at UMKC first.

Such as needing to get around with a walker? Handicap porta-johns? Stuff I never thought of? Yeah, the information is now relevant.... Gil and I have had to make a major change in our eclipse observing plans. Gil had a major fall, hairline fracture of the bone just below the ball on his right hip. Surgery planned for sometime Friday the 7th. The thinking seemed to be that he may be able to be out and about locally in time to see the eclipse. No travel advised to locations as distant as Casper due to blood clot risk. So, plans change. And now I am awake thinking of how we best plan ahead with these new conditions.

Subject:the road to the DSS and the HOASP planning committee
Message:
I was out to the DSS a couple days ago. The lawn mower has been repaired for $50.00, so I picked it up, and took it back out there. Noticed a few things on the way there: - the north/south gravel road SW 10767 County Rd, where it turns to the west onto SW 768 County Rd, is being worked on. It looks like they plan to make it into a wider broader curve. About 300 feet before the corner, the gravel now gradually curves to the NW and then to the west. They are still working on it though and it is VERY soft and squishy. Continue to use the original road until they are done with it completely. - approximately 900 feet to the west of this same corner, is a place where the limestone bedrock shelf is exposed in the road. If you've driven here before, you'll notice that there is always water along the road at this location. Water seeps through the ground, hits the shelf and then travels to an exposed opening. Apparently during the last big thunderstorm that dropped 9 inches of rain in one evening, the water washed this section of the gravel road out. They have graded the road and built it back up, but it is rough and very soft along the edges. Just slow down and be careful. Speaking of that rain storm, our neighbor that runs the land to the north had his caterpillar out at the site and was rebuilding sections of the levy. Next... In case you were unaware, bleach has a very limited live span. In a sealed container, Clorox bleach, will only be effective for up to a year. It's only good for up to 9 months if stored at extreme temperatures. In the building at the DSS, temperatures drop well below freezing and well into the 110's. If you are bringing down cleaning supplies, PLEASE DATE them. I threw away 2.5 gallons of bleach and several containers of Clorox Wipes that I know that have been down there for at least a year, or more. If you have been using them to clean tables this summer, you've been "disinfecting" with water. The same goes for hand sanitizer that uses alcohol to sanitize. These, however, are effective up to 3 years. If you bring down supplies, please DATE them, and only bring down what you think you will use up. -Scott Kranz DSS Manager

Subject:Eclipse viewing timeline
Message:
Hey all, this is my first ASKC email. I've been on here reading for the past 3 years and attending some events. We will be observing (weather permitting) from Indian Foothills Park in Marshall, Mo. I will be bringing my 8" Dob, 2 pairs of binoculars (no filters unfortunately), a DSLR camera (no filter), and eclipse glasses. My question is whether anyone has developed a viewing timeline for the eclipse? Or maybe more simply a viewing checklist for the duration of totality. I have several things I'd like to look at, but I'm not sure all of these are possible and in what order to do them in. Could anyone give me advice or guidance on the best viewing schedule or anything to add to my list. I'm considering some apps to help me keep time without looking at a phone. I'm also considering just recording my voice telling me all of the cues so I can listen to that during the eclipse. I would start the playback of that recording about 5 minutes before second contact: 11:44am - Observe first contact through telescope. (View top right of sun) 1:08pm - Attempt to view Jupiter (Jupiter - lower SE, Venus - higher in SW, Mars - south, direct line from Sun to Venus) 1:09 - 1:09:58pm - Periodically check ground and white sheet for Shadow Bands 1:09:58pm - Notice temperature changes, sharp shadows, breeze, wildlife sounds, sky toward wester horizon darkening 1:10:10pm - Diamond Ring 1:10:20pm - Place eclipse glasses on top of head and observe Baily's Beads 1:10:28pm - Totality, observe circumference with non-filtered binoculars focusing on bottom left edge for solar prominences. Continue observing with binoculars or naked eye. 1:11:20pm - Turn 360 degrees and observe surroundings. Attempt to view planetary plane (Jupiter - lower SE, Mercury - slightly left and down from Sun, Regulus - Just left of Sun, Mars - right and Up from Sun, Venus - Higher in SW) 1:11:47pm - Maximum Eclipse. Observe with Binoculars and/or naked eye 1:12:10pm Take pictures of Sun with telephoto lens 1:12:30pm - View Sun with Binoculars. Be ready for bailey's beads in top right corner 1:13:07pm - End of totality, observe Baily's Beads (top right) with binoculars for short duration 1:13:15pm - Don eclipse glasses and await Diamond Ring 1:13:30 - 1:15:30 - Periodically check ground and white sheet for Shadow Bands 2:38:31pm - End of 4th contact Questions: Is observing the second Baily's Beads with binoculars safe and advisable? The Sky and Telescope article recommends it, but it makes me nervous. If it is relatively safe, how long should I observe for? i.e. 3-5 seconds after I begin to see bailey's beads? http://www.skyandtelescope.com/2017-total-solar-eclipse/what-to-look-for-when-total-solar-eclipse/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=sky-jma-nl-170804&utm_content=961230_EDT_SKY_170804&utm_medium=email http://www.skyandtelescope.com/2017-total-solar-eclipse/what-to-look-for-when-total-solar-eclipse/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=sky-jma-nl-170804&utm_content=961230_EDT_SKY_170804&utm_medium=email How long before totality will you take your eclipse glasses off? Is it likely that I will be able to see Mercury, Mars, and/or Regalus prior to or during totality? I don't want to waste time looking for them if I won't be able to see them easily. Is it likely that a green laser would be visible during totality to point out planets? Thanks for your help! Pretty excited for everything. Mitchell Cloud

Mitchell, You only want to use those binocs during the full 100% totality. Absolutely NOT during the very brief Baily's beads or Diamond ring! Don't take any chances looking thru those binocs during the very last 20 seconds or so of totality. Even a momentary look thru binocs as the Sun begins to reappear (Bailey's beads) can seriously damage your eyes. Take no chances! I plan to use the timer of my phone to warn me at the 2 minute point (or maybe sooner) to stop fiddling with my camera and just ENJOY! Dave Hudgins

Good thinking Scott. It's actually the high temperature that is the biggest culprit that breaks down the Sodium Hypochlorite that's the active oxidizing ingredient in all bleach. The odorant they put in it makes you think its good but like Scott says, old bleach is just water and perfume. I use bleach by the drum in the drilling business but used it up in less than a month.

Subject:Solar Eclipse photography Info
Message:
First let me say I'm sorry to hear about Gil's fall. I hope he and Kathy are able to enjoy the eclipse I ran across the following web page of Jerry Ludriguss that provides some pretty thorough information about viewing and photographing an eclipse. I'm a solar eclipse rookie and I wasn't going to try any photography during the short time of the total eclipse. Now I'm thinking about using a program like Backyard Nikon to run an exposure routine during the total eclipse period using his suggested exposure settings. This way all I will have to do is press the go button and watch the eclipse while the program does all the work. A test run of the equipment prior to the eclipse would .be a really good idea. http://www.astropix.com/html/i_astrop/2017_eclipse/Eclipse_2017.html#Game_Plan http://www.astropix.com/html/i_astrop/2017_eclipse/Eclipse_2017.html#Game_Plan Hope to see some of you on the 21st!

Sadly, Team 5 is 0-2 on weather this season. Thank you all for making the trek despite the long odds. We got to discuss eclipse plans and visit if nothing else. Mike >

The it REALLY started raining and I actually slowed down from just under my normal Mach 1 to 50 mph. We got soaked getting from the car to the house! over 4" again and I didn't even water the lawn yesterday morning like last time. Powell really needs a trim, some weed killing and the bug stuff spread on the field. The stuff I put down a few months ago is past it's advertised effectiveness and I HATE ticks and chiggers.

Subject: AUGUST SCIENCE CAFE, AUGUST 9, 2017 -Coach's Bar & Grill, 135th and Grandview - Overland Park. 5:30-6:00 dinner - 6:30 PROGRAM Hello, Fellow Eclipse Chasers! Well, I HOPE I can welcome you to the exclusive group of Umbraphiles, after August 21st! This months program will be on the total eclipse of the sun, just two weeks away now. In case you havent noticed, the word is really out there now, and many people are making plans to go see it. Unfortunately, there is a lot of misinformation all over. So.. please come, and learn all about the eclipse, and the truth about everything concerning it. Ive chased the world to see eclipses, and will recount some of those travel adventures, too. Eclipse glasses will be available for $2 per pair. They were previously $1, but our last two shipments were higher in price, unfortunately. And, we are almost out of them, with no manufacturer taking any more orders for the past two plus weeks. I have saved some back just for you. Ours are definitely ISO certified. Remember, come about 5:30 if youd like to leisurely have dinner prior to the program (Coachs likes us to do that). Coachs is 1 block south of 135th street, on Grandview there is a Hy-Vee Gas Station on the north side of 135th and Grandview.

Due to a flat tire on Saturday, I was forced to watch 2 hours of battling robots on the tire center TV (some of that goes a LONG way, believe me). Anyway, it was apparently on the Science channel and they were constantly advertising watching them for the total eclipse event and were constantly saying that this hasn't happened in 99 years (referring to the 1918 eclipse which path crossed the country) Hilarious how they focus on that figure as opposed to the 1979 eclipse which is the actual last time the continental US experienced a total solar eclipse..... I've seen that 99 year reference on local stations, too....LOL Elizabeth

I've heard reputable sources make the distinction of this being the first In 99 years to go from coast to coast in the US. The 1979 eclipse touched only 5 NW states and only a small fraction of the population. If they're saying first eclipse in the US in 99 years, that's clearly wrong. Bigger numbers have the wow factor and get people more excited, so it could be ignorance or intentional, who knows.

BTW… the 1918 event was the last coast-to-coast eclipse, but it wasn’t a “Great American” eclipse, as it also passed over the Bahama islands. The last Great American Eclipse was in 1257!

Should we really be calling the media ignorant? The media is what so many people rely on for constant information about events like the 2017 eclipse. The media surely does a lot of research and investigation on these topics to be sure everything is correct before they broadcast to the masses. For example, the local TV stations have interviewed some of the club's members about the eclipse and I learned that in addition to them being amateur astronomers, they are also Astrologers! /sarcasm Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

That makes very little sense for them to remove a post. The admission to the event is free and they are misleading people by using the word 'Totality' as the first word in their event description. If they wanted to suppress those pesky facts to sell tickets, that's more understandable (and shady). They are situated to see about 99.7% totality and they better be instructing any guests that they cannot remove their eclipse glasses at any point. "Totality, the phenomenon involving a total solar eclipse, is upon us and the Museum at Prairiefire is throwing a watch party for this once in a lifetime event!..." Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

Let me clarify. I am not calling the media ignorant, I deal with them many times. However, whenever I or other members of the Club become aware of misinformation, especially with such a big event coming up that affects millions of people, we should politely give them the correct information. From what I and others have experienced, the local media folks have by and large, been grateful and made the corrections. I have given numerous talks around town about the eclipse and in speaking with many people afterwards or just when I am out and about, I have helped clear up a LOT of misinformation about the eclipse. There is a great concern about the safety of eclipse glasses for example and I and the eclipse team have been inundated with questions about whether our glasses are safe. There is a good article in the KC Star this morning about that subject and I am glad that the media is addressing the problem of bogus glasses. I had sent out a Press Release about the subject about 2 weeks ago and that resulted in an interview with radio KMBZ. I am glad that people are talking about it and aware of possible harmful glasses. As we get closer and closer to the eclipse, we all should be aware of misinformation and try to politely correct it. Elizabeth Brown ASKC Eclipse Committee

All of us must do our do diligence when speaking with the media. From the many interviews (nearly 60 over the years) I have done, I find that they are under the gun to get the story out and feel a need to sensationalize it. As astronomy ambassadors and representatives, we need to be watchful. KCTV5 did change the online piece to reflect "astronomers" not "astrologers" and we need to use good examples and analogies. Recently, a local person used the comment, to paraphrase what the person from the public told me, 'it is the difference of kissing a man and being with a man.' I didn't see or hear it personally, but not what I would have expected hear. It also depends on the person doing the story and interview. When Michaal Mahoney interviewed me, he had me go through my entire presentation completely as it was recorded. It contains the typical information, animations from some scientist friends in Tucson and SOLAR SCIENCE. The interview was about 90 minutes with questions and recording in different locations. As you would imagine, only a few minutes was used. Same thing with KSHB TV41. Personally, I don't get bent out of shape over simple slip-ups. The real issue is getting all the information out to the public concisely, not just tidbits. For the record, I refrain and avoid from making any mention of using #14 welder's glass in all of my talks. What I hate: the bull crap being spewed on KMBZ 98.1 radio at night. This is feeding the fire. Shows like Coast to Coast, Ground Zero and George Nori are putting this crap out and too many are sucking it up as fact.

There is a LOT of misinformation out there, and I just try and explain. There are also many quotes out there that are not reported correctly.

Last week, I asked for help in getting a large shipment of t-shirts folded and sent out. I got 7 volunteers, and we got it done! Around 250 shirts folded, and 32 orders filled in about 2 hours. They were awesome.. David and Marcia Young, Jerel and Kathy Williams, Ron and Susan Roth, Jim Carouthers, (and me). That was the 6th or 7th big t-shirt order this year. It's hard to believe, but sales are so good, I'm already ran out of XL's and L's are not far behind... ordering more! The sales of eclipse shirts and glasses have been phenomenal!

Message:
We will have a short staff this Friday night and could use some help at the Warko. Rita and I (along with a few other ASKC people) will be reporting to the Kansas City Museum before heading over to UMKC around 9:30PM. So, if you can bring a scope and do some "Urban" viewing, it would be great. Setup is on Level 5 of the Rockhill Rd Parking Structure (entry from 52nd and Charlotte) that would be great. Typically, there are barricades at the Level 5 ramp that you can move, drive through and replace for access. We setup on the West side not far from the stairs and elevators. No presentation is scheduled, but Armida might just get a wild hair. Stuart, John and Dale all know the routine and will assist you if you have questions. It is a lot of fun there and you will be surprised. Please let me and the staff astronomers know if you can help.

Subject:Re: [ASKC] Media Crazy on Eclipse
Message:
No doubt the media has done a good job making the public aware of everything related to the eclipse, from explaining the science behind it to preparedness & safety when observing it. The club also has done a good job of this through the Facebook page, the eclipse committee, and also this forum. I have been able to quickly answer questions from friends and family about things like the bogus glasses using information that has been posted here. I think the label of ignorant used by Chris and myself wasn't the informal/derogatory usage, just oblivious or uninformed. For example, the difference between astronomer and astrologer. I was making a joke about the small handful of times we saw some of the news stations call an astronomer an astrologer just as the media hype around the eclipse was beginning increase. I thought maybe our own Joe Wright was one of the recipients of this honorable title? Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@... On Tuesday, August 8, 2017, 9:33:09 AM CDT, ebrown2323@...

However, whenever I or other members of the Club become aware of misinformation, especially with such a big event coming up that affects millions of people, we should politely give them the correct information. From what I and others have experienced, the local media folks have by and large, been grateful and made the corrections. I have given numerous talks around town about the eclipse and in speaking with many people afterwards or just when I am out and about, I have helped clear up a LOT of misinformation about the eclipse. There is a great concern about the safety of eclipse glasses for example and I and the eclipse team have been inundated with questions about whether our glasses are safe. There is a good article in the KC Star this morning about that subject and I am glad that the media is addressing the problem of bogus glasses. I had sent out a Press Release about the subject about 2 weeks ago and that resulted in an interview with radio KMBZ. I am glad that people are talking about it and aware of possible harmful glasses. As we get closer and closer to the eclipse, we all should be aware of misinformation and try to politely correct it. Elizabeth Brown ASKC Eclipse Committee

Wouldn't you know it, I have had the solar filter that came with my XT8 for a couple years, and now with the TSE just 11 days away... my solar filter has, of course, gone missing! :-( So, either I'd gladly buy somebody else's 8" Orion 7749 Solar Filter or I'll buy about a 9x9 sheet (or larger?) from you to make my own. I've not made one before so not quite sure how much more than the basic 8" diameter I will need to make a good filter. Anyway, I can meet you anytime this afternoon if you'e available, thanks much.

Message:
During the live 10PM local news last night, Laura Moritz of KMBC TV9, one of the anchors reported that using your cell phone camera screen to view and take a picture of the eclipse will damage your eyes. What? No kidding. I am still trying to figure out how in the electronic process this will this cause damage if the phone is blocking the sun completely from your eyes. Wouldn't this analogy be the same as watching a TV and the eclipse being streamed live? Am I missing something here?

There is no way that the phone camera or its LCD screen could damage your eyes in themselves. However, I could see people accidently looking at the sun while trying to hold the phone up to take the picture. That would hurt.

I err on the side of extreme caution. If someone gives instructions that are to be followed when I'm not standing next to them, and not following them might cause a problem, I will recommend against it unless I know the person is competent. That said, people will tend to peek where they aim a phone or camera to point it. That is a danger. If they had more than 15 seconds (probably) to show how and clearly communicate how to do it, I'd say yes. And I'd be more concise on why I'm telling them not to try in the short report. I only use the shadow of the instrument I'm using on the ground to aim for solar work. If I get a chance I'll rig a couple of sight rings on the front and back of the one I'm taking and line them up. I use about 4' diameter disks with a 1/2 inch hole in the center. When you fool around with your scope, you look at the shadows of those two disks, and when you get the small light thru the two holes lined up, you are on the sun, and can fine adjust. It is tempting to look up when manually sighting anything. Wishing all great weather and event thanks Jim Stephens On 8/10/2017 7:50 AM, rhenderson1 rhenderson1@...

Well, you never know. A lady met me at Powell this morning to get some eclipse glasses and asked when it started and I said about 11:45 she should see a bit taken out. I swear to GOD she asked if that was at night. I bit my tongue (fancy that) and she suddenly got a stricken look on her face as the light dawned. I was driving down the highway and a call came in on the reservation line which is forwarded to my cell phone. I told the caller I was in the car and they asked if I was on a cell phone. I couldn't control myself and said no, I have a really long cord. They hung up. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@... On Thu, Aug 10, 2017 at 9:50 AM, rhenderson1 rhenderson1@...

Some years ago I used to have a little B&W TV in the truck for video use. Sometimes Rita caught the news while driving. Well, one day a Girl Scout asked if I had cable TV on it. Hmmn..

Looking at the video gave a brain cramp. The sun will be almost due south for our August 21 eclipse so while the partial phases won't cast cool images onto building like the low sun angle one in 2012 did but.....what if someone place a mirror under a tree and cast the images onto a building, car, house, something.

The astronomers will be on-site to answer questions, share views of the sky, and will have meteorites on hand for your examination as well as information to help you be prepared for this summer’s spectacular sky show.Following this event, additional observing can be done at Warkoczewski Observatory at the University of Missouri-Kansas City until 11:00 p.m. *weather permitting.Wright is also co-coordinator with David Young for the National Solar Observatory’s Citizen CATE experiment to image the solar corona during the eclipse. They are organizing and training observers at 7 sites along the Path of Totality. Wright is an awarding winning astronomer who recently completed two mission flights aboard NASA/DLR SOFIA airborne observatory. This is a specially converted 747SP with a 2.5m telescope peering out the side and his flight achieved an altitude of 45,200 f.t. during the imaging flight. I plan to arrive no later than 5:30 with the truck and trailer. I will be leaving promptly after 9pm to head to UMKC.

Message:
More info to pass along... Jackie ___________________________________ Solar Eclipse Maestro 1.8.6v1 for MacOS X released With just ten more days to go, Solar Eclipse Maestro 1.8.6v1, the most versatile and feature-rich application for solar eclipses, is now available for download. This release fixes all the reported bugs since the previous version and many more; while in live view photography exposure ramping up and down has been improved and an interesting new feature was added for Nikon and Canon DSLRs: support for the DSUSB and DSUSB2 (from Shoestrng Astronomy) shutter control cables. Panasonic cameras (GX8, GH4, GH5) are now supported as well and so is the all-sky Ricoh Theta S and SC in both stills and video modes. Three versions are now available: two Intel only, the first running Yosemite and newer, the second running on Snow Leopard and newer. The third is a Universal Binary running on Tiger or newer. All versions support all the Nikon DSLRs including the latest D3500, D5600, D7500, D500, D810A and D5. However the Universal Binary version can not operate tether control on DSLRs when using El Capitan or newer because Apple has removed some older APIs and the newer ones are not compatible. All the latest Canon cameras (EOS 1200D/Rebel T5/Kiss X70, 1100D/Rebel T3/Kiss X50, 100D/Rebel SL1/Kiss X7, 200D/Rebel SL2/Kiss X9, 600D/Rebel T3i/Kiss X5, 650D/Rebel T4i/Kiss X6i, 700D/Rebel T5i/Kiss X7i, 750D/Rebel T6i/Kiss X8i, 800D/Rebel T7i/Kiss X9i, 760D/Rebel T6s/8000D, 77D/9000D, 70D, 80D, 7D Mark II, 6D, 6D Mark II, 5D Mark III, 5D Mark IV, 5Ds, 5DsR, 1D X, 1D X Mark II and 1D C) are only supported by the Intel Yosemite version. The regular Intel version support Canon cameras up to the 5D Mark IV. Legacy Canon cameras (EOS 350D/Rebel XT/Kiss N, 20D/20Da and 5D) are only supported by the Universal Binary version. Note that these limitation are due to Canon which artificially stops supporting cameras on older OSes. All the SBIG CCD cameras and their filter wheels are supported as well and it does also work with a few Nikon Coolpix cameras. Users of all the previous releases are strongly encouraged to upgrade to this version as it brings some major improvements and fixes bugs. That way you will be able to enjoy new or improved features as well as eclipses even more without worrying about operating your digital cameras. Support for previous versions is terminated as of this day. To know more and download Solar Eclipse Maestro please visit: http://xjubier.free.fr/sem If you have any issue downloading please try the alternate download link as due to the number of people downloading the daily bandwidth often goes over 500GB and DropBox already suspended my account once... The number of visitors is as crazy as for my TSE 2017 map with 2M+ daily!

Clear skies to all, hopefully smoke free, and please don't forget to make a donation, Xavier PS: there shouldn't any other release prior to TSE 2017, but please report any bug soonest.

In particular, I describe how to plot the kilometer-wide "graze zone" at each limit, the area were we are most interested in obtaining observations, at http://occultations.org/eclipse2017/grazezone/; Xavier and others interested in those details, please check it out. There's one broken link, to a video demonstration in the "advanced" section at http://occultations.org/eclipse2017/advanced/ that I hope will be fixed later today.

hmmm. Technically you aren't observing the moon since you can't see any features. If you are imaging and do a high dynamic range image it will show features on the unilluminated face.

Subject:Help on finding path of eclipse based on Xavier Jubier'S Calculations
Message:
Friends (et. Al.) So, a frequent request is where is the path of totality and the answer is shown on a graphical representation here: Determine the general position of the Sun at totality (see http://xjubier.free.fr/en/site_pages/solar_eclipses/TSE_2017_GoogleMapFull.html<https://www.google.com/url?q=http://xjubier.free.fr/en/site_pages/solar_eclipses/TSE_2017_GoogleMapFull.html&sa=D&ust=1502488069088000&usg=AFQjCNEmGttS--Ch9emQPuY45mWRg7pQKw> to determine the azimuth and elevation) Please note: Xavier has said the calculation is based on the radius (mean) of the Sun adopted by the IAU. The problem is that the radius is not absolutely known to the meter, as it depends on who’s measuring it, how it is measured, and how long ago it was measured. The measurements I have made say that solar radii of 696 000 Km is shy of being close to watch the calculation have predicted, which in turn, affect the paths width and areas of inclusion. Googles page (see above) shows a wider path of totality, but does not account for the mountains, valleys and flats on the moon as the suns rays transit past. What does this mean? Well, find your spot, see how close to the predicted centerline you are from it, and then just enjoy what you can see for as long as you can see. 😊 S. Riley, Ph.D. SDO Ambassador, Warko Staff

The Astro-Quest is a very novice level observing program sponsored by the ASKC. For each task listed on the program, you gain points. To complete the program, you have to accumulate 90 points. Many of the easier tasks are spot various objects in the sky. They are worth a point a piece. The more difficult a task is, the more points it is worth.

After you mentioned your comment was removed, I posted in the comments section of an event notification I had seen come across my wall. I was curious if they were actively deleting comments. They replied acknowledging the poorly written description and updated it with information about their St. Joseph tour and eclipse viewing event. Good to see they were not actively deleting comments and updated. After seeing the updated description, it seems like maybe someone failed to distinguish two separate events the museum was hosting or co-hosting. Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

Solar telescopes seem intriguing, and seem to offer a great way to extend the hobby to almost any time of day. I've done a little research on them, but have never actually looked through one. From what I gather, the view will be very different than my XT4.5 with white light solar filter (I can see sunspots, but that's about it). Before pulling the trigger though on a fairly expensive scope (cheapest purpose-built ones appear to be the Coronado PSTs for ~$600), I'd love to look through one and find out more about them.

We have an older 40mm PST at Powell gifted by a member. It provides great views and as you are aware, easy on the budget. I can arrange to set it up for you, but not until after the Eclipse. It is for general club use. We have a 60 mm Lunt at Powell for Public viewing. It is a great scope, but not easy on the budget. I have a 60 mm Coronado Solar Max. Same issue with budget. Some members have 90 mm Solar Maxes, but for me they are off the chart expensive, but their capability is worth it if you can fit it into your financial life. We have some members with Day Star filters, but they are pricey too. Thousand Oaks has one, but I’m not aware of anyone that has one. A review I read ranks them favorably for Prominences only, primarily because their bandwidth is only 0.9 Angstroms. I have found every H-Alpha filter system I’ve used are more tedious to setup and focus than standard telescopes with White Light Filters. You can contact me offline.

Message:
Today I was testing a new homemade white light solar filter for the upcoming TSE, and noticed that the Sun seemed to be strikingly clear of any sunspots. None that I could see in my 80mm refractor at rather low magnification anyway. I must say that I am not a regular solar observer, and I certainly know that we have been near solar minimum for some time. But, holy cow, I don't ever remember seeing the Sun so absolutely featureless. Well, I hope some big monster sunspots come around by next Monday to add to the fun! : ^ ) Dave Hudgins

She had heard on the news (I think she said either KMBZ or KMBC; she talked so fast I couldn't catch which) that Amazon was recalling "astronomical" glasses that were not safe. Those were her words.... I assured her that our glasses were safe (I had sold some at a neighborhood assoc meeting). I called Marcia immediately to warn her that she and David just might get some phone calls about it.

The library provided, free, all the materials for people to make a filter or three for cameras, binoculars, smaller telescopes and eyes. Most were people being part of LHL's organized event to take buses to St. Joe for the eclipse. On the day of the eclipse, I plan to have a computer on MoDoTs freeway cameras for the northland on I-29 and I-35. It should interesting watch.

A "teaser" from Good Morning America caught my attention this morning just as I had turned on my TV. It supposedly was that they were going to do a piece on the safety of eclipse glasses and how to spot the fakes. Well, when they finally got around to it, their medical person went into great detail about the damage that could be done to the eye, however, she then was sitting with Robin and they had two stacks of eclipse glasses - one was real and the other fake. The medical person put on the safe glasses and Robin put on the fakes. OK, I'm waiting, Robin is glancing around at the lights and I'm waiting to hear a clear and concise report as to the difference between the two. They didn't give it, nope, GMA blew the report. There was no real discussion as to how to spot the fake glasses, it sure wasn't clear to me. They had spent more time on eye damage and seconds on the glasses......yeah, I'm upset....and we (the ASKC) are being inundated with questions the past few days and this morning about the safety of our glasses....

Totality there is 2 min and 20 seconds (maybe 2 min, 23 sec, according to http://www.howtoeclipse.com/ http://www.howtoeclipse.com/ Anyway the address is 16311 DD Hwy N., Smithville, MO 64089. www.nwk.usace.army.mil/Locations/District-Lakes/Smithville-Lake http://www.nwk.usace.army.mil/Locations/District-Lakes/Smithville-Lake I am telling everyone to bring something to eat, water or beverage of your choice (ice in you own cooler would be great), snacks, lawn chairs, sunscreen (we are hopeful for its necessity) and maybe some extra toilet paper eclipse glasses and any other equipment you want. We will have charcoal things (can't spell the word brickets and someone is getting eclipse slap happy) for the grills (I'm bringing extra hot dogs and bread just in case). I will rope off an area around the shelter for the ASKC folks and guests. I will place a sign by the highway by the west parking lot to indicate the ASKC event. You can park in that lot, the Center's lot or along the roadside (there will be a LOT of cars that day, they do it all the time for 4th of July events, unless the law enforcement have other plans.) Come early (if its calling for all day rain and clouds no chance of sunshine) we may all be doing a road trip somewhere and join Rick on his quest Elizabeth Brown ASKC Eclipse Committee

Feeling fidgety? Need to burn off some excess pre-eclipse energy? Here’s a potential activity. While away the week ahead, in between checking the long-range forecasts and researching new viewing sites, by exploring this sampling of eclipse-related apps for smartphones and tablets—maps, phenomena, timing, weather, and such. http://www.skyandtelescope.com/2017-total-solar-eclipse/solar-eclipse-apps/ Fred Espenak, for example, mentioned Solar Eclipse Timer (iOS) or EclipseDroid as useful tools. The story links to a more detailed listing at the AAS website: https://eclipse.aas.org/resources/apps-software Be wary, however. Viewing that AAS page may lead to analysis paralysis, technophile overload, or running up a hefty app store bill. For example, the site shows 17 iOS eclipse apps, and this listing, says the accompanying story, isn’t ALL of the available eclipse apps. For myself, I’m hoping for reasonably clear skies and good company on the 21st. What’s on my iPhone won’t matter then. =] Best, Mike

Ditto. Satellite imagery loops will be helpful starting Friday night or Saturday, but meteorologists should also have a good idea of what type of weather we will have by then. The weather.gov and Weather Underground cloud cover percentage graphs are one of the main pieces of data I use for observing. Especially when you have two different sources forecasing partly clear and partly cloudy. Right now, Weather Underground has 35% cloud cover but also a similar percent chance of rain. That tells me it's too far away for them to pin down what that incoming weather system is going to do. Unless it's an easy forecast like little to no cloud cover (high pressure system having just moved in + low humidity + average temperatures), or something like 100% overcast, we'll probably have to see what all four local TV meteorologists predict on Friday and Saturday. This will be the most analyzed daytime forecast in recent history for areas in the eclipse path. They will probably all have at least an entire thirty minute news segment after the 6pm and 10pm news covering just the forecast details. Probably an AM segment to sequeue into eclispe coverage, but by then it's too late for serious travel outside of KC if the forecast suddenly changes to unfavorable conditions. If by Saturday they are saying partly cloudy and greater than 30% cloud cover. I will likely hit the road if conditions are much more favorable within an 8-10hr drive. Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

I may choose to stay put, move only a few hundred miles, or might elect to drive up as far as Casper, Wy. The decision will be made in time so that I will be in place Sunday night. Yes I'm self contained if necessary with a generator. I hope the skies are clear so several hundred will not be disappointed at my primary start location of Lake Doniphan. Gary Martin

Mike, Thank you so much for sending this out!!!! Once you go through each app and look at its reviews, what it does, and last time it was actually updated? You won't want all the iOS apps listed. I ended up downloading only 9 apps, totaling less than $10. Tonight I'll go thru those I downloaded and see which ones I will keep. Thanks again! Thanks, Cindy Bahl cindylbahl@...

While away the week ahead, in between checking the long-range forecasts and researching new viewing sites, by exploring this sampling of eclipse-related apps for smartphones and tablets—maps, phenomena, timing, weather, and such. http://www.skyandtelescope.com/2017-total-solar-eclipse/solar-eclipse-apps/ Fred Espenak, for example, mentioned Solar Eclipse Timer (iOS) or EclipseDroid as useful tools. The story links to a more detailed listing at the AAS website: https://eclipse.aas.org/resources/apps-software Be wary, however. Viewing that AAS page may lead to analysis paralysis, technophile overload, or running up a hefty app store bill. For example, the site shows 17 iOS eclipse apps, and this listing, says the accompanying story, isn’t ALL of the available eclipse apps. For myself, I’m hoping for reasonably clear skies and good company on the 21st. What’s on my iPhone won’t matter then. =] Best, Mike

Is that the shelter in the Smith's Fork City Park? I am looking at the Smithville Lake map from the web site you shared. Haven't been to Smithville Lake what is the best way to get there? I'm specifically coming from Waldo. It looks like from Google 169 to 92 then DD? Any other way you suggest if the traffic is wild?

Of course you assume that those numbers are real and not just printed on there. Every eclipse glass being sold has those numbers on them. Many people have printing presses.

I would be very careful with those. I picked up some from a retirement home who had bought some with that inscription (identical), and they were fakes.

Subject:FW: Eclipse - another place to go....
Message:
Here is more info on another place to go. Just forwarding it on to you all. Jackie From: openeditorial@... [mailto:openeditorial@hushmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 15, 2017 5:38 PM To: m31@...; warko@... Subject: Eclipse ,Hello Jackie ....per our phone conversation a few days ago, I would appreciate your offer to distribute our Eclipse Observance information before the group of those who you know who could consider attending. There is the prospect of holding some astronomical observance events out on the farm. We are not certain about the staging of the MUDRACE, yet such events can be entertaining, so we are keeping it under consideration. For those who would be so inclined, we do have ample Camping areas in forested shade---several acres. We had a member of the Astronomical Society set up a telescope for viewing a couple of years ago, and it did prove to be a success. One entertainer who may be playing is Tom Bradshaw who is billed as Almost Willie. He is rated as the premiere Willie Nelson imitator, and played out at the farm back in 2003. He looks and sounds genuinely authentic, and sometimes performs with an entertainer who emulates Emy Lou Harris. All interested parties are invited to contact me, Michael Couroyer, at <mailto:openeditorial@...> openeditorial@... and 816-341-0353. We are planning a BBQ CookOFF type of event during the ECIPSE on a farm under the path of TOTALITY, with very accessible and convenient location 2859 NW US 169 HWY Gower MO 64454. It is slated to be a four day event, with Camping and MUDRACE and two Bands. We actually have two farms in the path of totality, another at 20311 Murray Road Polo MO 64671. Will you help us with some information on the best method of promoting this event? There is plenty of parking and Camping Area to accommodate 1500+ people and/or vehicles including BUS size RVs, as there is an old section of US 169 on the property, and plenty of field space. We propose to make this an annual event, possibly a "ComingOut" in the Spring, and a "GoingIn" observance of Fall Festival during Autumn or early winter. There is a River forming the southern border of the Farm--it is Castile Creek, featuring a Rock bottom river bed. The Gower Farm is equidistant between Smithville and Saint Joseph. We are interested in inviting the 4-state area, or more. We have experience in these types of events, having hosted Fall Festivals on our old family farm near KCI in Platte County, but we are interested in refining our knowledge about how best to host a successful event. Call us at 816-341-0353, openeditorial@... or openeditorial@startmail.com or rwctrust@... Thank you, I have astronomy interests and experience at CMSU and Palomar College in northern San Diego County. signed, Michael Couroyer

I think that is a wise decision. Make some pin hole viewers! Just take a big piece of cardboard and cut a square hole out of it. Tape a piece of foil over it. Use a pin to make one or 20 holes in it. You could even be creative and spell your name or 2017 eclipse or something in pin holes. The holes will project little eclipse images onto a surface when the sun shines through them. A colander also works well. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Make some pin hole viewers! Just take a big piece of cardboard and cut a square hole out of it. Tape a piece of foil over it. Use a pin to make one or 20 holes in it. You could even be creative and spell your name or 2017 eclipse or something in pin holes. The holes will project little eclipse images onto a surface when the sun shines through them.

The Kansas City Museum just shared an event on their Facebook page that they will be giving out free glasses while supplies last this Friday from 1-3pm with a limit to two per person. They're provided by the Lewis and Clark National Historic Park Service- no additional information regarding authenticity or manufacturer.

I received this from as associate through GSFC (Goddard....) We are having a district wide (county school system) viewing which I got really excited about. Then they sent a permission slip that is going to scare the begeezus out of parents. Barring all outdoor activities including athletic practices unless everyone has solar viewing glasses and suggesting that teachers close blinds "as appropriate". Our elementary school has postponed dismissal until after the eclipse has ended. Mobile, AL has banned all teachers and students from viewing the eclipse at all. My daughter (senior in hs) came home saying her SCIENCE teacher told her that if they are driving, they should pull over and cover their eyes during the eclipse.

I will be shooting a very limited number of photos during the eclipse since I will be primarily focused on the CATE project. The CATE telescope and camera will be taking images automatically so I will be able to spend a limited amount of time on personal photos. I will be shooting with my Canon L series 100-400. I have a Canon 70-200 L series and a Canon Xti that someone could use for eclipse photography if they fee they just have to waste some time under totality. Call me if interested. 913-558-1155.

Message:
Some good thoughts there, but there seems to be a very simple solution. Reschedule the day. We already see this for snow days, and when our city's baseball team wins the world series, but not for a life changing event that could actually add to the education of these students. Then the onus is on the parents to protect the children. In fact, by not canceling school, they'll lose lots of money for the kids that were pulled, money that wouldn't be lost if the day were made up. It comes down to poor planning, in my opinion, leaving districts with fewer options than they should have had otherwise. Many would call this lack of planning stupid, and I might agree.

Message:
It is easy for a private school to set their own schedule for the school calendar. The public can get much more complex. In Kansas we had the question is money for the public school in the first place let alone what is the calendar. Public schools also have questions with unions. It is not a surprise. It is complexity of what may seem like a simple question that is not so simple that they do not understand. That is main issue here. By the time they realize how complex it is it is already to late to change the schedule. I believe it may have been a year ago maybe even two years ago that some individuals tried to get the schools to close but apparently nothing happened with that (it may have been only for the colleges).

Jackie, That is a little different. For the world series they had a rather good idea many student would not show up so it was better just to close the schools. Here they do not know what to expect. The situation you describe has occurred in a number of the big cities years for the Jewish Holidays. For a school of thousands you could put all the students that did show up in a single classroom. Even then, it took them years to decide to close the schools on the Jewish Holidays. Maybe one just needs to call these events a sporting event to get some action.

The schools decided to close for the Royals after the teachers called in sick or for whatever reason en masse not to come to school. This is not from heresy. This is from a teacher who was witness to it. There was no planning, only acquiescence on the part of the school board. And on a spur of the moment. The real sham is that it can happen for sports but not for science or even an awesome display of nature? How skewed are our perceptions of what is real and important? Sorry. Soapbox time.

I finally realized what the real issue with the schools is. Actually, it is rather simple. The parents need to go to work, and thus need a safe place for their children. what is a safe place for children during the school year? None other than the schools. Parents, often use schools as baby sitters, whether they realize it or not is another issue. The schools are now confused as to how to perform their baby sitting duties in this situation. Why not a national holiday? How would all those companies that want to over charge everyone make their extra money if we had a national holiday? They would not!! Thus no national holiday.

The public can get much more complex. In Kansas we had the question is money for the public school in the first place let alone what is the calendar. Public schools also have questions with unions. It is not a surprise. It is complexity of what may seem like a simple question that is not so simple that they do not understand. That is main issue here. By the time they realize h ow complex it is it is already to late to change the schedule. I believe it may have been a year ago maybe even two years ago that some individuals tried to get the schools to close but apparently nothing happened with that (it may have been only for the colleges).

Reschedule the day. We already see this for snow days, and when our city's baseball team wins the world series, but not for a life changing event that could actually add to the education of these students. Then the onus is on the parents to protect the children. In fact, by not canceling school, they'll lose lots of money for the kids that were pulled, money that wouldn't be lost if the day were made up. It comes down to poor planning, in my opinion, leaving districts with fewer options than they should have had otherwise. Many would call this lack of planning stupid, and I might agree.

The one that is most surprising to me is the situation where the school district is willing to let a teacher leave during the eclipse but must stay before hand. The word to consider here is LIABILITY!!! The students while at school are expected to be safe because of the supervision of the school district. The get a clear answer to question here as when and to what extent a school may be liable one is going to need to go to court. The court is where these questions get answered. The cost to get the answer should a school district need to for a number of students could easily bankrupt a school. The schools are just trying to protect themselves. This is a situation you consult your attorney and medical personnel to get to a reasonable answer. What is reasonable? That will depend on whom you ask. If the schools close for the day they will not get the funds for the students being in school that day. To get the funds the schools must make some compromises to get the RISK to a reasonable level. If you have never done this before, I can tell you it is not that simple!!! I would like to know how much the schools paid their attorneys for answer how to deal with situation. A few days ago Rhiannon Ally of KSHB 41 asked how she should deal with her 19 month daughter during the eclipse and asked viewers for suggestions. My answer to her was simple: "DO NOT EVEN TRY TO LET HER VIEW". I went on to say should something happened you would never forgive yourself. She asked me some additional questions which I answered for her as well as provide her with a copy of the NASA safety sheet and a copy of the August Cosmic Messenger. I told about other eclipses that she could take her children to when they are a bit older. Additionally, I invited here to Powell for which she expressed an interest in going; so do not be surprised should her family show up for a public night. Many of you may think should someone get an eye injury it will not cost us anything. More than likely, even if one student ends with an eye injury from one school the entire astronomy may pay the price for this. This could show up with reduced funding for existing projects as well as possible future projects. The answer here is much more complex than many give it credit for!!!

The news bit was real. Animal glasses, no, I didn't order any. However, I really did consider it months ago when actually asked by a person from the public. I thought, here is a niche for selling. The person was genuinely concerned that when they looked up, the pet would also. My thinking: if the pet is watching you, most likely it would be opposite of you and thus, its back would be towards the sun and wouldn't see it. After the initial question from the person, someone commented what about cattle. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

I will be shooting a very limited number of photos during the eclipse since I will be primarily focused on the CATE project. The CATE telescope and camera will be taking images automatically so I will be able to spend a limited amount of time on personal photos.

I looked at my Beagle a few days ago and said "I should get him a pair of doggie goggles" and then laughed at the idea of how ridiculously stupid a thought that was of mine and then laughed even harder at the idea of him wearing goggles.

My boss just caught me off-guard with a question- How can he explain and experience the eclipse with his 3-year-old? Looking at sources from NASA and Big Kid Science: https://eclipse2017.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/Science%20%26%20Children%20-%20Mar2017%20-%20%20Preparing%20for%20the%20Eclipse.pdf https://eclipse2017.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/Science%20%26%20Children%20-%20Mar2017%20-%20%20Preparing%20for%20the%20Eclipse.pdf http://www.bigkidscience.com/eclipse/eclipse-2017/ http://www.bigkidscience.com/eclipse/eclipse-2017/ I have zero point of reference for little human age capabilities... can 3-year-olds walk, or are they already driving cars? If anyone can point me to some resources I would greatly appreciate it. Christina Lynn

I am starting to accumulate samples of "bad" eclipse glasses. We don't know they are actually bad, they just don't have the "proper" certifications. Perhaps we can have someone do a test on some of these in the future. NASA has a statement out that you shouldn't use glasses over three years old.

There are already stories of people claiming they are seeing the animals praying for clouds and rain for Monday 8/21/17. Others have gone as far as saying they are seeing some animals building Arks. They also claim there is no room for humans on these Arks. And still others claim they are seeing some animals marching with signs saying Good Bye Humans. This is being called "The One Day Flood".

Subject:ASKC Shelter at Smithville Lake
Message:
Hello, there seem to be a few more questions about our event at Smithville Lake. Our shelter is the only one that is on the south side of the lake, it is to the immediate west of the Jerry Litton Visitor Center. There is a parking lot to the west of the shelter, or you can park in the Litton lot. Most folks can get to it via going north on 169 Hwy up to Smithville, turn east (right) onto 92 Hwy until you come to road DD, not quite two miles I believe, turn left and follow it around till you see the Center and you will also spot our shelter. Please bring lawn or camp chair, water or beverage of your choice, a cooler would be nice if you have one and ice (might be hot that day and mostly sunny!), snacks, lunch, sunscreen (and your eclipse glasses!). I will block off an area around our site for our members and guests. Let me know if you have any questions. Elizabeth Brown ASKC Eclipse Committee please don't bring any pets (cats won't come anyways, mine will be sleeping as usual), but dogs might get too excited at the large crowds (and we don't have glasses for them anyway, oh, mercy!)

The person was genuinely concerned that when they looked up, the pet would also. My thinking: if the pet is watching you, most likely it would be opposite of you and thus, its back would be towards the sun and wouldn't see it. After the initial question from the person, someone commented what about cattle. &nbs p; Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

HALLOOOOOO, Kansas City, from Casper, Wy!!! As of a few minutes ago, forecast for Monday is partly cloudy with high in 80's with 10% chance of rain at 1400 local. Twyla and I are still prepared to rush east (probably North Platte area) if forecast mid-day Sunday is poor. Going west would mean running into crowds from Yellowstone and Tetons. We've seen Denise and Deb, Mike Stokes, Carroll and Betty, Mitch Glaze, Pat & Roger Gruenke, and Bill Boyle here at AlCon. Nice observing session last night on Casper Mtn. Lagoon and Trifid, M8, 20 among targets. Seeing poor due to gusty winds. Transparency good. Surprising sky glow from Casper.

What school districts are we talking about? If it is about districts in the path of totality, then it is unacceptable to not take advantage of this and dedicate the entire day to the eclipse like Liberty is doing. The further you get from the path of totality, the less time the schools will dedicate to taking the older, more responsible students outside to observe the partial eclipse. There's not a build up to an incredible moment. In addition to the points already made, if some of these public schools were to cancel class for the rest of the day, that may force a lot of parents take off work or make other arrangements to watch their kids. Yes, it would be nice if there was as much public interest in the eclipse as there was when the Royals won the World Series, but that's not the world we live in. It's not a proper comparison. Think of all the people you know that don't really care about the eclipse at all or only started caring recently due to the hype and are going to a bar to watch it.

Lees Summit schools are closed on Monday also. Citing safety concerns and many staff members wanting to be in the path of totality. On a more serious note, "Will the eclipse have any affect on the New Madrid fault?" I did tell them that there would not be any affect. After they were rather insistent, I told them that they might want to be outsideviewing the entire time just in case. You can't make this stuff up.

If it is about districts in the path of totality, then it is unacceptable to not take advantage of this and dedicate the entire day to the eclipse like Liberty is doing. The further you get from the path of totality, the less time the schools will dedicate to taking the older, more responsible students outside to observe the partial eclipse. There's not a build up to an incredible moment. In addition to the points already made, if some of these public schools were to cancel class for the rest of the day, that may force a lot of parents take off work or make other arrangements to watch their kids. Yes, it would be nice if there was as much public interest in the eclipse as there was when the Royals won the World Series, but that's not the world we live in. It's not a proper comparison. Think of all the people you know that don't really care about the eclipse at all or only started caring recently due to the hype and are going to a bar to watch it.

It is not a surprise. It is complexity of what may seem like a simple question that is not so simple that they do not understand. That is main issue here. By the time they realize h ow complex it is it is already to late to change the schedule.

Reschedule the day. We already see this for snow days, and when our city's baseball team wins the world series, but not for a life changing event that could actually add to the education of these students. Then the onus is on the parents to protect the children. In fact, by not canceling school, they'll lose lots of money for the kids that were pulled, money that wouldn't be lost if the day were made up. It comes down to poor planning, in my opinion, leaving districts with fewer options than they should have had otherwise. Many would call this lack of planning stupid, and I might agree.

The one that is most surprising to me is the situation where the school district is willing to let a teacher leave during the eclipse but must stay before hand. The word to consider here is LIABILITY!!! The students while at school are expected to be safe because of the supervision of the school district. The get a clear answer to question here as when and to what extent a school may be liable one is going to need to go to court. The court is where these questions get answered. The cost to get the answer should a school district need to for a number of students could easily bankrupt a school. The schools are just trying to protect themselves. This is a situation you consult your attorney and medical personnel to get to a reasonable answer. What is reasonable? That will depend on whom you ask. If the schools close for the day they will not get the funds for the students being in school that day. To get the funds the schools must make some compromises to get the RISK to a reasonable level. If you have never done this before, I can tell you it is not that simple!!! I would like to know how much the schools paid their attorneys for answer how to deal with situation. A few days ago Rhiannon Ally of KSHB 41 asked how she should deal with her 19 month daughter during the eclipse and asked viewers for suggestions. My answer to her was simple: "DO NOT EVEN TRY TO LET HER VIEW". I went on to say should something happened you would never forgive yourself. She asked me some additional questions which I answered for her as well as provide her with a copy of the NASA safety sheet and a copy of the August Cosmic Messenger. I told about other eclipses that she could take her children to when they are a bit older. Additionally, I invited here to Powell for which she expressed an interest in going; so do not be surprised should her family show up for a public night. Many of you may think should someone get an eye injury it will not cost us anything. More than likely, even if one student ends with an eye injury from one school the entire astronomy may pay the price for this. This could show up with reduced funding for existing projects as well as possible future projects. The answer here is much more complex than many give it credit for!!!

Subject:Eclipse Glasses document from NSO
Message:
This page seems to be the best online for eclipse glasses information I could find. It lists the manufacturers and sources of glasses which the NSO thinks is genuine. After asking about the standard, it is locked up in ISO land for a fee. I'd love the technical information if anyone has access and can properly help with that. I may purchase it if I can't find an old source who is in the standards area that can help me. I started way too late to obtain the certifications for examination to have them before Monday. FIW, I did get ISO 12312-2 as the standard, just to have the information here in the email. Crossing fingers and hoping your weather is better than the thread. We need help too here in Idaho, where I traveled to. thanks Jim https://eclipse.aas.org/resources/solar-filters

Nashville and North Platte, NE might be getting a sudden additonal influx of travelers! I forgot to also tie in our other topic about schools; I may have misunderstood what I overheard. The girl mentioned only being able to see ~88% partial eclipse and overheard her mention school teachers/professors (possibly at UCF) were trying to keep kids inside by holding class and hinting at pop-quizzes in order to limit risk of the uneducated students going to look at the sun directly. Granted I only overheard this so she may have been talking about her school or high schools throughout the area doing this. The point is that this is happening nation-wide and not just schools that are real close or in the path of totality.

Any recommendations for those of us willing to drive up to five hours and do primitive tenting? Where the forecast is better than here in KC? Leif has made us a reservation at Grand Island, NE, for primitive tent(which is fine with me). He is thinking at that point even if they are cloudy we will at least be close enough to a clear spot to drive to it. My concern is driving anywhere even at 6am on Monday will be impossible. Any suggestions or ideas or things we need to think about or anything else? Or maybe I'm worrying too much? Lol. Thanks, Cindy Bahl cindylbahl@... On Aug 19, 2017, at 8:10 AM, M Stewart mike.n0tu@...

Cindy, Yesterday I looked at the sats on the weather and they appeared good until Sunday afternoon. They started to get ugly; and continued to worse as time progressed. Stay off the main roads as much as possible during the day. I might consider leaving tonight between 10PM and 1 AM and possibly head east. There were storms starting in the gulf so you need to check that first. Many parts out west seem to be getting worse except for OR which I believe is already overcrowded. The best place could be east of Nashville at this time. I do not know what you are driving I cannot get an idea how far you can get. I believe Nashville is about 550 miles from Overland Park. It is 2PM now if you ate an early dinner and left by 6AM you could be at a good place. Good Luck and GOOD VIEWING.

Here in KC, Camp Wilderness in Lawson, MO is opening up their campgrounds to visitors. I was in contact with someone from a group who has the place reserved that weekend and wanted ASKC to come do some observing tonight, Sunday, and Monday. No one volunteered being so close to the eclipse. Then a couple weeks ago I saw a Facebook invite from the camp's account. $5 per person.

Dawn Grant is helping with the event at Wilderness Camp. It is a nice area, Northeast of Rita and I. Did anyone see the news tonight with the line at Brookside Toy & Science. Tomorrow will be a first for me. My first international interview with the CBC (Canadian Broadcast Company). They are coming to Timberline Observatory to do this. Rita is busy making enchiladas and tamales for Monday. Hey, if it is cloudy, party on. For the fun of it, I will be using my very first telescope for the eclipse. A Jason 90mm refractor and one of the Galileo replicas David Dembinski made We are going to shoot the field and downtown in the background with Ch9's Go Pro camera mounted high.

Sunspot region 2671 is facing Earth today. This complex that will provide nice observing opportunities during the eclipse. “New region 2672, now turning into view off the east limb, produced an M1.1 flare at 01:52 UTC (Aug 20).” “Additional flaring may be possible as the active region continues to rotate into Earth view.” That could result in some spectacular coronal images. http://www.solarham.net/ Meanwhile, here on Earth, Cloudmageddon covers the central United States.

Cloud cover forecasts are typically not very skillful beyond about 36 hours. We have, just this morning, come within that 36 hour range. There is still a lot of uncertainty for the local area, but based on the best available guidance, I am cautiously optimistic for the north KC / St. Joe area. That said, for those travelling (e.g. not me!), somewhere out around North Platte certainly looks more favorable. Matt Foster On Sun, Aug 20, 2017 at 3:18 AM, Jim Ketchum jimketchum44@...

Subject:Smithville Lake Event will carry on
Message:
Unless there is a tornado roaring thru the Lake area, the Smithville Lake event is still on. I plan on being there most likely by 6:30 or so, or earlier once I check with the news people and traffic events. As David Young once told me, there is going to be some interesting stuff happening as totality approaches. It WILL get dark for one thing and who knows, I am hopeful for clearing skies like this morning. I remember that Michael Bakich once advised to just follow through on your original plans and hope for the best! See ya at the Lake, under the shadow of the Moon. By the way, I noticed that "Shadow" is not listed as a baby name for new kids on the planet. Elizabeth

Up here in Casper Wyoming it is forecast to be clear. We are at 7000 ft approx on Bureau of Land Management property - free and plenty of acres left for about 5000 people. I have a spot overlooking a valley that should show the advancing shadow. If anyone wants to join us we have a quiet generator with capacity. South of Casper with about 2:20 totality - haven't entered exact quordinates yet. I'm excited. Haven't seen this many stars in a long time (last night was in Nebraska - Scotts Bluff. Gary Martin

The traffic jam may be going on south of here, but up to now, lots of campers, but not the crazy crowds expected. I'm starting to expect that the hype about crowds may have stopped a lot of people.

Camp Augustine, Nebraska for the win!!!!!!!!! 2 minutes and 34 seconds. Some clouds but they were thin. Saw the corona with all its glory along with Venus. It was an amazing experience. So many things to say, describe... animals and bugs went quiet. We could see the dark sky coming. The clouds on the west started to go black. It got really cool. Right before total we could hear nighttime crickets. During totality there was a 360 sunset. It was like being on another world. We all clapped and cheered and were in awe of it all during totality. It was so beautiful. Thanks, Cindy Bahl cindylbahl@... On Aug 21, 2017, at 2:12 PM, Martha Auchard mauchard@... [ASKC] <ASKC@yahoogroups.com> wrote: Watched from a mountain top near Potosi, MO.

Hello. I woke at 430 to hit the road at 6:15 in order to pick up my friend at 7 in Lee Summit. We flipped a coin to decide where we were headed. We ended up heading east to the Lexington Battlefield in Lexington MO. We arrived around 830 and found a wonderful place to set up our chairs and blanket. The were several telescopes set up for public viewing. Around 10am it started to cloud, shortly there after it started to loudly thunder so we went back to the car. It rained very hard for almost 2 hours. At Noon it stopped raining, and the clouds finally broke at 1230ish. What came next was amazing. The moon was already 1/4 away across the sun. The clouds disappeared to give us 2 mins and 20ish seconds of Totality. It was AMAZING. The moon started to leave the sun and the clouds came back shortly after. There was about 100 people there so the roads getting out were no problem at all. What a wonderful experiance Sean

I was in the midst of uploading 12.5gigs of data for Citizen CATE and bailed out to the local bank to use their fast connection. It cut the time from 90 minutes to only 12! About a 90 people watched a huge hole open up at 13:04:33 and remain open until 13:23:53, thus seeing my first TSE. David Young, Charles Kennedy, David Dembinski, Rita Wright and I successfully completed the experiment. On the evening news (5:30pm) there should be a animated clip off all the sites getting images of Totality from Oregon to South Carolina. KMBC will have some footage at 9 and 10pm. Betsty Webster and Ronelle William, both of KCTV5 were on hand to watch the eclipse and see Totality. Rita made some tamales, enchiladas, beans and burrito meat to go with the pot luck style affair. We also had a few out of country visitors. Cool. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Message:
From a couple of blocks north of Worlds of Fun -- It cleared enough for the partial phases, and the first of the next major cloud patch was moving in as totality approached. The Sun was occluded by cloud clumps with just a couple of minutes to totality - no sun through the filters. But then it would reappear. It did that about a half-dozen times before the sun went dark for real. Totality was visible through a patch of thinner clouds. We could see the bright inner corona, and orangy-red prominence stuff on one side. The 1 minute, 39 seconds was over in about 8 seconds, perceived time. Two other couples/families on our block were also viewing the eclipse, and our home health RN who stopped by later got to see it, too. So at least some of us just north of the river got to see it. With the incoming clouds, it did not get really dark, and too many nearby trees interfered with seeing the moon's shadow coming toward us. But we got to see it!

Message:
The Sun and Moon played peek a boo with us at Smithville Lake so we got different views of the progression of the eclipse. Got up to almost totality and clouds covered it. However, turning to the west and northwest, saw the effect of the shadow as the darkness swept upon us. Quite a rush to experience and all around the orange glow and spectacular orange glow with jagged clouds to the NW. It was quite a different experience but each one I've seen has been that way. Sigh...OK, here comes 2024.... We did have a nice crowd of perhaps 50 people. A man and his son from Canada were there, folks from California, Florida, Oklahoma. Mr. Crouch, a 95 year old man from Calif, knew Mr. Warkoczewski back in the day. Very interesting to talk to him. Elizabeth

We were afraid everyone west of us was getting clouded out and rained on. We didn't see anything until the sun was about 3/4 covered. Then a big hole in the clouds moved over us and we saw the rest of the partial, all of totality and some of the second half. Then it clouded over. After about 30 minutes of letting excitement wind down we realized it was about to rain and covered everything up. Joe had some awesome views during totality with his 12" SC and I do mean AWESOME! I only had time for a quick look and then had to run back over to the CATE scope which was busily taking bracketed images automatically. I couldn't see Regulus but Venus and Jupiter were really bright. Amazing corona and prominences today. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Yes, David didn't know ch9 had me micro phoned the entire time. And yes, calls continued for glass even during the eclipse. I told one guy four time try Brookside Toy & Science and he said, "I don't want a tool, why call a tool store." I stopped short of saying, "look dumbass.." I am really hooked on the science aspect of this and want to learn how they will reduce the data. I'm not hooked enough to mortgage the house and travel around the world for one. Then again, I don't mind wasting two dollars every so often for a lottery ticket...what the heck.

Jackie, The ASKC KC Eclipse t-shirt? I had people in both Camp Augustine and Grand Island asking me where they could buy mine (I was proudly wearing mine yesterday). I was like "No, my says KC, you need one from this area." Seems Grand Island nor Camp Augustine didn't cash in and sell t-shirts for the event. Plus people REALLY liked the look of the t-shirt. They thought it was awesome. Had I known, I would have brought extra to sell. Or took names down for ordering. lol. Thanks, Cindy Bahl cindylbahl@...

NASA says if eclipse glasses comply with *ISO 12312-2* that went into effect in 2015 you can use them indefinitely even though some manufacturers still say to discard after 3 years. Any of the glasses sold by the ASKC came from either American Paper Optics or Rainbow Symphony and both are *ISO 12312-2 *compliant. Even so many people will just toss them.

In the other two in that grouping I'd suspect you had an internal reflection also in your camera or observing setup. In the two photos, the diamond ring had reappeared, and if you had anything set in your system to automatically adjust the exposure, the diamond ring would force it to be visible, and the internal reflection of the ring would be gone. so the hearts are probably the diamond ring. Very nice photos. I messed up the focus when I pulled my filter on the lens, and didn't get very good photos of totality. However I didn't expend more than 10 seconds doing that, and just observed during totality, which was my plan for this eclipse. thanks Jim Stephens

Subject:Eclipse From Grand Island, Nebraska
Message:
After several days of watching the weather fore cast, we decided to head to Grand Island, Nebraska. Stumbled on a website for Camp Augustine that had camping facilities and observing fields available. It's a Boy Scout camp and did little advertising. As a result, the place wasn't over run with people. I don't think there were more than 150 there. Nice to set up an RV, spend the night and watch the eclipse from one spot. I took a 6" dob and set it up early in the AM. Showed lots of folks the many sunspots until first contact. We watched the progression to totality. I was able to see Bailey's Beads as the last glimmer of sunlight disappeared. We had high thin clouds and were always able to see the whole event. The clouds keep us from seeing Mars and Mercury, but Saturn was bright. All in all a great experience. Here's a video of our campsite and the whole camp. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sr8PAEeE3rs&feature=youtu.be Jim

Subject:TSE Smithville Lake (long)
Message:
The crescent Sun kept peeking through the clouds as totality came closer. Partial began with a reasonably clear sky but it clouded up as time went on. Was quite a show through my eclipse glasses as the markings (i.e. clouds) kept crossing the face of the sun. My last glimpse of the sun was about 10 minutes before totality; nothing after that, except for a couple of glimpses maybe 20 minutes after totality. It was ten minutes ahead of totality that I noticed the scene around me was significantly darker than a normal cloud-covered day. I knew from my previous eclipse in Aruba why this was happening and that it was to be expected. So far so good. But it didn't prepare me for what came next. The landscape slowly got darker. I was looking for the approach of the moon's shadow from the west-northwest, and I saw the thick cloud bank in the west almost black and getting blacker yet. But then in the last minute or two before totality, the landscape around me got darker and darker really fast, as though some cosmic entity now had its hand on the dimmer switch for reality and was steadily dialing it down. With nothing else visible to make any sense of this, instinctive fear ran through me. It was scary. I saw an orange light come on low in the western cloud bank. It was disorienting, and it was a little bit longer before I realized that it was the streetlight in the parking lot to our west turning on. In Aruba it got dark too, and it was outside the scope of reality as we conceive of it, but you could see the sky itself getting dark, so you had something on which to base the change in the landscape. Here at Smithwille Lake you saw the landscape getting dark, with the light around you just quickly disappearing. And this was darker than I remember from Aruba, thanks, I believe, to the thick cloud cover screening out part of what light there would have been without the clouds. I would hate to have been an ancient in that situation, with no clue of what was happening. Just the world ending with no reason whatever. So it was different, but still a rush. I knew it would get dark, but the impact from a cloudy eclipse was far more powerful than I imagined. I missed the experience with the sun in the sky, but totality was still a profound experience, different than the experience with the sun in a clear sky, but one I didn't expect and one I am glad I didn't miss. After totality ended, the cloud bank to our west slowly brightened and the cloud bank to our east was almost black. For the first minute or two, the landscape brightened as quickly as it had darkened, but this didn't have the gut-wrenching quality of the darkening. I was not the only one there who was scared. After totality, a number of other people said they had been as well. I never did see the approach of the shadow, just the black clouds in the west both before and during totality. The clouds must have scattered enough of what light there was to wash out the delineation of the shadow itself. There were enough holes in the cloud banks at the horizon that during totality I could see the orange twilight surrounding us in all directions. (Yes, I did look.) That was our experience of totality. I was disappointed at not being able to see anything of the sun during totality, the black hole in the sky, the corona, and whatever prominences might have shown up. I know from experience that those are just stunning. But this was still a totally reality-changing event. Su and I ate our sandwiches, but before we were finished the rain began. It quickly came down in buckets, and we moved our chairs well inside the shelter. After a while, the rain let up and stopped, and we breathed a sigh of relief. Not so fast. About 15 minutes later, the rain began again. I had the time to load up the car again without everything getting totally soaked, and then once again came the downpour. This one did not let up, we got in the car semi-soaked, and drove off. At Highway 92 we encoundtered heavy traffic which quickly became stop-and-go all the way back to Smithville. About halfway back to Smithville itself, the rain let up, and became light. We stopped at the Smithville Quik Trip, and then headed south on Highway 69, with traffic heavy but moving basically normally. But on the way south, on and off we encountered torrents of rain, enough to slow us and the rest of the traffic down. I don't know whether this was a fitting end to the eclipse or what. Dennis Budd

Subject:I went to Hermann!
Message:
Hi all! My husband and I went to Hermann on the choo-choo and met my sister and her boyfriend who biked in on the Katy Trail. Skies were clear and we went up on one of the highest bluffs to Stone Hill winery. We spread out a quilt and a picnic lunch and I got in one of the long lines for wine slushies. It was a little early in the day for wine, but then again, it was only an hour and a half till dark! There were about 400? people at Stone Hill. They had an event at each of the wineries in Hermann and also at Hermann Farm, which also features a very high bluff overlooking the river. Some people stood on the bridge across the river which has a pedestrian walk. Nothing scientific to report--I didn't see the shadow across the land nor did I see the diamond ring--maybe I missed it because of glasses or something--but even with two minutes plus of totality, it seemed to go by too fast! Of course, crickets and cicadas chirped and the people oohed and aahed. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and I came back with two dorky T-shirts, two dorky patches, a priceless memory, and way too many bottles of wine!

Subject:addendum to my previous message
Message:
An addendum to my previous Smithville lake eclipse message... As totality was approaching, the sun was covered by a thick bank of clouds, which covered most of the sky. But much closer to the southern horizon was a large opening through which clear sky was visible. We were hoping that this opening would move closer to us and allow us to see totality. That hope was in vain. Once totality had passed, I looked again at that place on the southern horizon. That opening had begun to fill in with clouds, and in time it disappeared entirely. Maybe it was just a coincidence that this corresponded to the passage of totality, or maybe the temporary loss of sunlight and resultant cooling of the atmosphere triggered it. Inquiring minds wonder... Dennis

After checking the weather forecasts for several days, Debbie, Zack and I left Clinton, Missouri, a little before 3:00 am and headed toward Nebraska. There was not much traffic that early in the morning. We saw lightning flashing in the distance all the way there. When we arrived in Nebraska City, the sky was still mostly cloudy, so we continued westward toward Grand Island. The sky in Grand Island was mostly clear, but there were clouds right in front of the sun. Looking at the maps, we saw that Ravenna, Nebraska, was on the center line, so we headed northwest. In Ravenna, we saw people everywhere set up and ready to watch the eclipse. A little ways southwest of town, we found a good spot on a dirt road less than a quarter of mile from the center line. The sky was mostly clear. There were some people just down the road a little ways who came from Minnesota to see the eclipse. We watched first contact and then sent some text messages. During the first phase of the eclipse we noticed the wind began to pick up and temperature went down a little. There were some cows in a nearby field. Some of them laid down on the ground assuming that it was going to rain soon. Venus was visible before second contact. Just before totality, we could see the shadow of moon in the sky to the west. It was an ominous vague gray dome where a few minutes before had been blue sky and few wispy clouds. We could no longer see those clouds. Then “whoosh,” the dark swept over us. There was not much of a diamond ring effect at second contact. Just before totality, some light wispy clouds formed in the area around the sun. However, there seemed to be a hole right where the sun was allowing us to see totality. We could see the white corona with three “spikes.” There was an orange light all around the horizon almost like a 360 degree sunset. Jupiter, Spica and Mars joined Venus in the sky. The temperature dropped more, about 10 degrees total since before the eclipse started. We had 2 minutes and 35 seconds of totality, but it seemed much shorter. Then at third contact, there was a brilliant diamond ring effect. As it started, it looked like a giant light bulb in the sky. It lit up the landscape with a surrealistic incandescent quality for about the first four seconds. An amazing sight! Then the vague gray dome was in the east and the western sky was blue again. The cows all stood up, deciding that the rain was a false alarm. It was well worth the 430 mile drive! David Preston

Message:
There has been some banter in private messages today. I though I should share one of my replies since there have been some questions about my original comment about the 3 year lifespan of eclipse glasses. The counterfeit samples I have collected over the past couple of months looked ok when I GLANCED at the sun through them. GLANCED, not stared. Most of them looked as dim as the "real" ones. They are Probably safe. That's too big a probably for me. That old WWII bomb found on the beach probably won't go off. Then again...... I have 20+ assorted glasses from around the world of various ages, including my own glasses from Hawaii, Aruba, Australia, Galapagos, Tahiti, and Indonesia. I only trust the ones from Indonesia and of course the tens of thousands I purchased this year directly from John Jerit of American Paper Optics and Mark Margolis of Rainbow Symphony. Rainbow Symphony also made glasses for Google/Megamovie project. I trust those glasses. Thousand Oaks and Lunt's are also good. I don't trust Chinese made or any glasses of unknown origin. It seems that American Paper Optics were widely counterfeited and those counterfeits had all the proper numbers printed on them. *According to NASA the glasses that meet the ISO 12312-2 international standard published in 2015 can be used indefinitely if undamaged and properly stored.* The possible problem is that just because the manufacturer had a printing press doesn't mean the manufacturer actually made the filters properly or went to the expense to have them tested and properly certified. Are they dim in just the visual wavelengths that you can detect or do they also block harmful light you can't see? Smoked glass, film and other "filters" dim the light in VISIBLE wavelengths but using them may result in in damage to the eyes from other wavelengths. I did NOT distribute any of the old glasses that I have. I did not distribute samples sent directly to me by the owners of American Paper Optics or Rainbow Symphony if they were made prior to 2015. They are very likely fine to use. But not by me or anyone else until I have someone test them. They are simply collector's items to me. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Subject:Eclipse Food Question
Message:
We camped and observed totality with a couple of guys from the Twin Cities. One was an ex B-52 bomber pilot during the Vietnam War. He brought a bottle of Champagne to toast the event after totality. He then bemoaned that he should have brought Corona beer to honor the event. I said we should have had some Sun Chips, too. Then my wife suggested some Moon Pies. The other guy chimed in with Starburst candy. It was a hoot trying to think of all the "astronomy" related foods we could have had. Any suggestions from our ASKC group we didn't think of? We ran a thermometer during the event and counted down the temps every fifteen minutes. Went from 83 degrees to 71 degrees at totality. As it ended it was like being in a dark parking lot when the Mercury Vapor Lights go on. A steady brightness of light. We saw a beautiful diamond ring at the end of totality. Still in awe at the experience. Jim

After looking at the weather reports for Kansas City, we decided to travel to where clouds were predicted at less than 2% - Casper Wyoming (morning of the eclipse forecast was for 0% clouds). Left Saturday morning and got there Sunday early afternoon to set up camp on the edge of a cliff. . One of our friends - Terry Redding from Florida (some of you may know from IOTA) cam up with us. We found a Bureau of Land Management site (FREE) on Muddy Mountain South of Casper Mountain around 8000 ft altitude. Stars were great when aligning scopes up Sunday night. Monday came with clear skies and I took a movie of us looking West at the oncoming Shadow across the valley as well as pictures during the eclipse with an 8" Schmidt Newtonian on an Atlas mount and DSLR with an Intervalometer (posted a few in the photo section David Young created). I could not take my eyes off the eclipsed Sun and kept randomly spinning the exposure wheel and pushing the camera button for more pictures at all exposures. Got back home Tuesday night in time for work on Wednesday. Long trip but worth it. This was my first Total Solar Eclipse. We should start planning a caravan/expedition for April 2024 most likely for Texas due to normal April cloud cover.. Gary Martin

By the time totality was closing in at Smithville Lake, the "sucker holes" had totally disappeared, and what was left was thick clouds covering most of the sky. But close to the horizon there were openings in enough places and enough directions that when we were under totality I could see the orange twilight in all of them, which gave me the 360 degree effect. In the "addendum" message I described at the southern horizon a "large opening" through which clear sky was visible. I used the term "large opening" for it instead of "hole" deliberately. This was no small "sucker hole". But it was too far away to be of any help, and once totality came through it filled up with clouds. I looked in the direction of St. Joseph a few times and all I saw were dark clouds. Dennis On Wed, 23 Aug 2017, Scott s.kranz1@... [ASKC] wrote: > > > Apparently, the sucker holes were small.

Message:
We went to the Lathrop property that Carroll Iorg's friend owned and agreed to host some members and guests.Travelling wasn't really an option for us and the forecasts made it sound like it would be thin clouds that you could see the sun through, so we decided to take our chances. It was raining when we arrived at 9:30am. Traffic was light with only a few cars waiting to turn off of i35. The radar and clouds made it appear like it was going to be a total wash, but the rain stopped and clouds began breaking apart right at the beginning of C1. Things were really looking up for us since we could see the clearing to the south head our way. We had decent views of the eclipse up until about 15 minutes until totality and I managed to snap a good pic of the eclipse viewed through my 8" dob using my cellphone. Just before 1pm it looked like the eastern edge of another shower was going to pass right over us at the worst moment and it did. Friends in Kearney and Excelsior Springs said the clouds cleared up at the perfect moment for all of totality plus another 15 minutes. Then the storms rolled in and it started pouring, which made the drive home take three times as long. We got 5" of rain from that afternoon storm. We got to experience everything except for seeing totality. I was pretty upset after getting my hopes high and seeing the clearing probably 15 miles west, but in hindsight it was an amazing experience. Plus I'll have another chance to see it in 2024. We still experienced unusual calm and silence, 360deg dusk conditions, and the small rain showers nearby looked more like severe storms. It was beautiful and I snapped several pics I will try to upload to the group pictures folder. Thanks again to Carroll and everyone else that coordinated the gathering and helped out with creating the make-shift outhouse at the last minute. Brad Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

I was on that property in Lathrop as well.

Partial began with a reasonably clear sky but it clouded up as time went on. Was quite a show through my eclipse glasses as the markings (i.e. clouds) kept crossing the face of the sun. My last glimpse of the sun was about 10 minutes before totality; nothing after that, except for a couple of glimpses maybe 20 minutes after totality. It was ten minutes ahead of totality that I noticed the scene around me was significantly darker than a normal cloud-covered day. I knew from my previous eclipse in Aruba why this was happening and that it was to be expected. So far so good. But it didn't prepare me for what came next. The landscape slowly got darker. I was looking for the approach of the moon's shadow from the west-northwest, and I saw the thick cloud bank in the west almost black and getting blacker yet. But then in the last minute or two before totality, the landscape around me got darker and darker really fast, as though some cosmic entity now had its hand on the dimmer switch for reality and was steadily dialing it down. With nothing else visible to make any sense of this, instinctive fear ran through me. It was scary. I saw an orange light come on low in the western cloud bank. It was disorienting, and it was a little bit longer before I realized that it was the streetlight in the parking lot to our west turning on. In Aruba it got dark too, and it was outside the scope of reality as we conceive of it, but you could see the sky itself getting dark, so you had something on which to base the change in the landscape. Here at Smithwille Lake you saw the landscape getting dark, with the light around you just quickly disappearing. And this was darker than I remember from Aruba, thanks, I believe, to the thick cloud cover screening out part of what light there would have been without the clouds. I would hate to have been an ancient in that situation, with no clue of what was happening. Just the world ending with no reason whatever. So it was different, but still a rush. I knew it would get dark, but the impact from a cloudy eclipse was far more powerful than I imagined. I missed the experience with the sun in the sky, but totality was still a profound experience, different than the experience with the sun in a clear sky, but one I didn't expect and one I am glad I didn't miss. After totality ended, the cloud bank to our west slowly brightened and the cloud bank to our east was almost black. For the first minute or two, the landscape brightened as quickly as it had darkened, but this didn't have the gut-wrenching quality of the darkening. I was not the only one there who was scared. After totality, a number of other people said they had been as well. I never did see the approach of the shadow, just the black clouds in the west both before and during totality. The clouds must have scattered enough of what light there was to wash out the delineation of the shadow itself. There were enough holes in the cloud banks at the horizon that during totality I could see the orange twilight surrounding us in all directions. (Yes, I did look.) That was our experience of totality. I was disappointed at not being able to see anything of the sun during totality, the black hole in the sky, the corona, and whatever prominences might have shown up. I know from experience that those are just stunning. But this was still a totally reality-changing event. Su and I ate our sandwiches, but before we were finished the rain began. It quickly came down in buckets, and we moved our chairs well inside the shelter. After a while, the rain let up and stopped, and we breathed a sigh of relief. Not so fast. About 15 minutes later, the rain began again. I had the time to load up the car again without everything getting totally soaked, and then once again came the downpour. This one did not let up, we got in the car semi-soaked, and drove off. At Highway 92 we encoundtered heavy traffic which quickly became stop-and-go all the way back to Smithville. About halfway back to Smithville itself, the rain let up, and became light. We stopped at the Smithville Quik Trip, and then headed south on Highway 69, with traffic heavy but moving basically normally. But on the way south, on and off we encountered torrents of rain, enough to slow us and the rest of the traffic down. I don't know whether this was a fitting end to the eclipse or what. Dennis Budd

Subject:Astromart Ad
Message:
Speaking of Astromart, there is an Obsession 25" telescope complete with converted observing/hauling trailer for $19,000. Here are the details: Obsession 25" - f5 with Galaxy Premium Select 1 mirror, Argo Navis and Servo Cat. Pace America 14' torsion axle trailer with extra height, door, and e-track throughout. This telescope and trailer make an unbelievable turnkey system. I have redesigned all systems to make the setup, travel and safety foolproof. I have logged over 5000 targets with this scope and have recently moved to a poor-sky area (Reno) so Im ready to move on to another hobby. Scope mirror is a Galaxy Premium Select 1, the best piece of glass figured until as perfect as can be done. Argo Navis and Servo Cat for goto and track, powered poles, Thousand Oaks dew heater system for eyepieces and automatic dew system on the secondary mirror. Kendrick Laser for initial collimation and the Complete Catseye Collimation system for more exact collimation in both light and dark conditions. RS 232 wireless communication between the computer and the scope - far more robust than any bluetooth arrangement. Megastar on the included Sony computer with a removable red light lens. I have completely re-designed the wheelbarrow handles for moving the scope and for safely and securely tying it down for travel. The system holds the scope from the bottom, not the sides, for much less torque on the telescope box and has the handles at arm level for MUCH easier moving. Trailer is torsion axle for smooth ride with e-track on the floor and walls for easy, secure and adjustable tie down points. The trailer is a full function office powered with either 110v when its available or 12v with built in Optima gel-cell deep cycle batteries and fully wired for both voltages. Dimmable red and white lights are mounted for proper coverage. Office chair, storage drawers and cabinets, large rollable chest, full carpets, 400 watt alternator, 12v and 110v power taps all built in. For travel I have built a special platform that the scope wheels onto that allows you to firmly tie the scope down without ANY pressure on the scope body or the ground board. You will be impressed ! Every piece of the scope, ladders, tables, accessories, batteries etc. have secure built in mounts. Im wishing to sell the scope and trailer together as they are a seamlesly designed package that has been road fully road tested. I have been to many national star parties with this scope and trailer and have never seen anything as fully designed for ease of setup, safety in transport and flawless operation. With my redesigned wheelbarrow handles the FULLY ASSEMBLED scope can wheel into the trailer for overnight safety - making it unnecessary to either re-assemble your scope for the next night or leave it out overnight. A HUGE advantage for safety and protection. Im including EVERYTHING in this package - you are ready to go. Scope, trailer, ladder, tables, chairs, batteries, lights, equipment drawers, rolling storage chest, computer with Megastar and RS232 package, all the tiedowns and e-track connectors, carpets, dew heater and heater pads, 2 wireless controllers for the Servo-Cat, Telrad etc etc etc. Its a hook up and drive away system. Everything is thought out and maximized for ease of use, safe travel and workability with or without AC power. All lights and power taps are both 110v and 12v. The computer can use either its own interior batteries or for longer use the i-Go Juice which works with 12v ( a very cool piece). I have full pictures documenting everything visually and all the paperwork on virtually everything in this offering. Original strehl measurement on the mirror, all manuals , computer disks etc etc. Im picturing a dedicated amateur or a telescope club or group perhaps buying this package - you will appreciate every upgrade and design addition. If you have been to any star parties you will immediately know why each piece of this package is important and what dilemma it addresses !! _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Subject:Re: On the center line!
Message:
David, I also saw the three "spikes." After doing a little research I learned the shape of the corona actually changes in time with the solar cycle. Close to solar minimum, the corona is more confined to the poles, which I think is what we were seeing. During maximum, it spreads completely around the disc. I've heard people say each eclipse is unique, and can understand why! My wife and I are lucky enough to own a RV-7A kitplane that we finished building earlier this year. Seeing that the weather was going to be iffy around here, we decided to fly out to find clearer skies. I picked ~6 airports along the line of totality, and checked their weather early on the 21st. It looked like the further west we went, the better our chances, so we flew planned to fly to Douglas County airport, Wyoming, and land earlier if the skies were clear. Lots of folks had the same idea - the airspace around Alliance, Nebraska was particularly crowded. Despite so many folks landing, there was a layer of low clouds in the area, so we kept going to Douglas County. There were probably a little over 100 aircraft on the ground at Douglas County, including several bizjets and other homebuilts. We left at 8 a.m. central time, and arrived around 10:45 mountain time - about an hour before totality, and with totally clear skies. We set up some chairs near some folks who had flown in on a CJ2 bizjet. We had some snacks and watched the sun with our eclipse glasses as the group from the CJ played songs like Stairway to Heaven and Dark Side of the Moon on a digital player. I didn't really perceive that the light level had dropped significantly until the sun was maybe ~80% obscured. In the minutes right before totality, the wind, which had been a steady 10 knots or so, completely died. People started getting excited - pretty much everyone was standing as the shadow swept in from the northwest. With seconds left until totality, we looked directly at the sun without our eclipse glasses, with the last few glimpses appearing like sunlight reflected from the ocean. Suddenly, the light died completely, and the corona popped into existence. People cheered, jumped up and down, exclaimed various things - you'd think everyone was from KC and the Royals had won the series again. The first detail I noticed were the three spikes of corona, appearing to stream out a surprising 3-4+ solar radii into space. The sky was like dusk all around, except the mountains to the south which were bathed in stronger light. Venus was obvious and bright, and I was surprised to be able to make out all 6 of the first magnitude stars in the Winter Hexagon. The music coming from the CJ2 folks really added to the surreality of the moment. Too soon, it was over. According to the internet, totality lasted 2 minutes and 22 seconds at our location, but it felt much shorter. People started leaving immediately after totality. We stuck around to look at the various airplanes and watch departures, then packed up and flew home. We were both pretty sore by the time we landed back at K34, our home airport in Gardner. 7.5 flight hours was about 2 hours too many for our backs - but it was totally worth it! It was an unforgettable experience, and we're definitely planning to find a way to see the next one that crosses the US in 2024. In the meantime, I plan to learn more about the sun and get more involved with solar observing, and maybe even buy a solar scope. From some research, I think a pressure-tuned Lunt 60mm is the right scope for me. If anyone has one to sell, let me know : ) -Hunter Myers Sent from Yahoo Mail. Get the app

Travelling wasn't really an option for us and the forecasts made it sound like it would be thin clouds that you could see the sun through, so we decided to take our chances. It was raining when we arrived at 9:30am. Traffic was light with only a few cars waiting to turn off of i35. The radar and clouds made it appear like it was going to be a total wash, but the rain stopped and clouds began breaking apart right at the beginning of C1. Things were really looking up for us since we could see the clearing to the south head our way. We had decent views of the eclipse up until about 15 minutes until totality and I managed to snap a good pic of the eclipse viewed through my 8" dob using my cellphone. Just before 1pm it looked like the eastern edge of another shower was going to pass right over us at the worst moment and it did. Friends in Kearney and Excelsior Springs said the clouds cleared up at the perfect moment for all of totality plus another 15 minutes. Then the storms rolled in and it started pouring, which made the drive home take three times as long. We got 5" of rain from that afternoon storm. We got to experience everything except for seeing totality. I was pretty upset after getting my hopes high and seeing the clearing probably 15 miles west, but in hindsight it was an amazing experience. Plus I'll have another chance to see it in 2024. We still experienced unusual calm and silence, 360deg dusk conditions, and the small rain showers nearby looked more like severe storms. It was beautiful and I snapped several pics I will try to upload to the group pictures folder. Thanks again to Carroll and everyone else that coordinated the gathering and helped out with creating the make-shift outhouse at the last minute.

But close to the horizon there were openings in enough places and enough directions that when we were under totality I could see the orange twilight in all of them, which gave me the 360 degree effect. In the "addendum" message I described at the southern horizon a "large opening" through which clear sky was visible. I used the term "large opening" for it instead of "hole" deliberately. This was no small "sucker hole". But it was too far away to be of any help, and once totality came through it filled up with clouds. I looked in the direction of St. Joseph a few times and all I saw were dark clouds.

We were in Idaho Falls, and there were probably 50 people there that had left the area. We just went to the shade across in an adjacent parking lot as we could see the sun with instruments and set in the shade. But when the totality hit they made a lot of noise. Some people elsewhere in town set off munitions of some sort (very large bangs) at beginning and end of totality. Thankfully not near us if as fireworks would be pitiful in that darkness. But it was cool to see and hear everyone cheering and talking. Glad everyone is reporting their experiences. I guess time to look to the next one. FWIW, the centerline is 1.5m from my farm in SE Missouri. Look up McGee, Mo. thanks Jim

[ASKC] <ASKC@yahoogroups.com> Subject: [ASKC] TSE Lathrop We went to the Lathrop property that Carroll Iorg's friend owned and agreed to host some members and guests. Travelling wasn't really an option for us and the forecasts made it sound like it would be thin clouds that you could see the sun through, so we decided to take our chances. It was raining when we arrived at 9:30am. Traffic was light with only a few cars waiting to turn off of i35. The radar and clouds made it appear like it was going to be a total wash, but the rain stopped and clouds began breaking apart right at the beginning of C1. Things were really looking up for us since we could see the clearing to the south head our way. We had decent views of the eclipse up until about 15 minutes until totality and I managed to snap a good pic of the eclipse viewed through my 8" dob using my cellphone. Just before 1pm it looked like the eastern edge of another shower was going to pass right over us at the worst moment and it did. Friends in Kearney and Excelsior Springs said the clouds cleared up at the perfect moment for all of totality plus another 15 minutes. Then the storms rolled in and it started pouring, which made the drive home take three times as long. We got 5" of rain from that afternoon storm. We got to experience everything except for seeing totality. I was pretty upset after getting my hopes high and seeing the clearing probably 15 miles west, but in hindsight it was an amazing experience. Plus I'll have another chance to see it in 2024. We still experienced unusual calm and silence, 360deg dusk conditions, and the small rain showers nearby looked more like severe storms. It was beautiful and I snapped several pics I will try to upload to the group pictures folder. Thanks again to Carroll and everyone else that coordinated the gathering and helped out with creating the make-shift outhouse at the last minute. Brad Brad Weaver |weaver.brad@...

But close to the horizon there were openings in enough places and enough directions that when we were under totality I could see the orange twilight in all of them, which gave me the 360 degree effect. In the "addendum" message I described at the southern horizon a "large opening" through which clear sky was visible. I used the term "large opening" for it instead of "hole" deliberately. This was no small "sucker hole". But it was too far away to be of any help, and once totality came through it filled up with clouds.

Subject:Big Sky Tonight at Powell
Message:
Hi, everyone. Are there some people who would like to help out at Powell tonight? I have been there on team 3 nights as an extra hand so far this season, but I have general meeting duties and cannot attend. It will be a pretty short-handed event otherwise, unless a lot more clouds move in. The forecast is for anywhere from clear skies to being partly cloudy. It's going to be a good viewing night...Meteoblue says it'll be clear by 6:00. This would be a great opportunity to share eclipse stories with fellow members and the public. If you are thinking of joining a team at Powell in the future, this would be a good night to "try it out." Last team 3 night they were so short of staff that I got to help out (I'm on team 5) in the dome on the 30" telescope... That post is never unfilled, in my experience. It looks like a sub for one person has stepped up, but more help would be even better. Thanks.

I couldn't sleep so, went observing at 1am. The sky seemed rather steady and Uranus was clear and vibrant at 250x. It was easy to distinguish its round shape and blueish color. My entourage (cats: Deneb, Albireo, Pollux & Draco) was on point around me and it was a pleasure to listen to the coyotes and owls doing their thing. Looking forward to more observing runs up here.

Message:
Hi, Thanks for letting me a part of this, and I thought an introduction was in order. I have been in Kansas City for over 14 years now, and live in Overland Park with my wife and a 6 year old boy. I have been fascinated by everything related to space forever, but finally got into actively watching it about 4 years ago, when I started visiting the Powell observatory. It's wonderful to visit, and listen to people share the same excitement about space. I couldn't share my excitement and awe of looking at cool stuff through a telescope, so I got into photographing the milky way and sharing the photos with friends & family. One thing led to another, and I purchased a cheapish tracker, so I could take longer exposures with a zoom lens. Been using and loving it for a year now. I was able to capture the andromeda galaxy, the orion nebula, pleiades, lunar eclipse, and the recent solar eclipse. My milky way captures have thankfully gotten much better too. Link to album https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/ASKC/photos/albums/1497190605 I have been told there are a lot of astrophotographers among the members here, and I would love to interact and learn from you. Also, maybe go visit the dark sky site with some of you some night and get some non-orange photos :) Regards, Firoz Jokhi

Hi Firoz, and welcome to the ASKC yahoo group. Yes, we have quite a few serious astrophotographers in the club. Also a yahoo special interest group for astro imaging. Perhaps one of the members will speak up and tell you how to have your name added to that egroup. If you are interested in maybe joining our monthly group of club members who meet at Powell for a star party and observing each month, please let me know and I will add you to the email star party announcement list!

Subject:Nice little comet in Perseus in October, C/2017 O1 Assasn
Message:
This reported... "A new comet discovery crept up on us this [July 27], one that should be visible for northern hemisphere observers soon. We’re talking about Comet C/2017 O1 ASAS-SN, a long period comet currently visiting the inner solar system. When it was discovered on July 19th, 2017 by the All Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) system, Comet O1 ASAS-SN was at a faint magnitude +15.3 in the constellation Cetus. In just a few short days, however, the comet jumped up a hundred-fold in brightness to magnitude +10 <http://cobs.si/>, and should be in range of binoculars now.

Subject:Certifications of eclipse glasses.....
Message:
Here is the info on certification from the expert... I thought you would like to read it. Jackie Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2017 5:09 PM Subject: [SEML] Re: Certifications? The EN1836 only addressed the transmittance properties of the filters used in eclipse glasses. When the ISO standard was put together, my working group included some requirements on the dimensions and stability of the cardboard mountings for eclipse glasses. We also made more explicit requirements for the labelling and other information that was to be provided to the end user. We now have the experience of the last 2 years to work on revisions to the technical requirements and to address the plethora of other direct viewing devices that were produced for the 2017 eclipse. When the ISO 12312-2 standard was published in 2015, the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) adopted it and withdrew the EN1836 standard under the terms of the Vienna Agreement. The transmittance requirements of ISO 12312-2 are identical to those of EN1836; filters that met the requirements of EN1836 are still good to use, with the caveat that if they show significant signs of wear and tear they should probably be replaced. That said, a device that has been well cared for and shows no signs of deterioration can be used indefinitely. The point of replacing a regional standard with a global one is that a single technical specification applies to solar filters manufactured and sold around the world from 2015 on. The ISO technical committee meets again in December, and at that time I will be making proposals to address the various issues that we encountered with solar viewers that were offered to the public for this August's eclipse. With a bit of luck and good timing, we may be able to put forward revisions in time for the 2020 and 2024 eclipses, if not sooner. As Canadian head of delegation to this committee and the leader of the solar filter project group, I am in a position to move this ahead. Ralph Chou B.

Subject:Asteroid Florence (3122) Flyby
Message:
Looking for something to do after the TSE? Try observing 3122 Florence. It’s already visible in Aquarius should you want to hunt it up tonight. Closest approach to Earth is expected to occur at about 7:06 am CDT Friday, September 1, 2017. According to magnitude estimates, the asteroid will remain visible into early September for mid-size telescopes. As the S&T article points out, the asteroid may be easiest on Saturday as it crosses through Delphinus. Magnitude is predicted to be 8.7 tonight. <http://www.skyandtelescope.com/press-releases/view-close-flyby-of-asteroid-florence/> http://www.skyandtelescope.com/press-releases/view-close-flyby-of-asteroid-florence/ <http://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/asteroid-1981-et3-3122-florence-pass-earth-2017-binoculars> http://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/asteroid-1981-et3-3122-florence-pass-earth-2017-binoculars Mike Stewart

Hi Chris, Nice report thanks for sharing, and congratulations on success in seeing this visible evidence of our amazing cosmos! : ^ ). I'm wondering about how long did you have to watch the field to be able to detect motion of this asteroid? After all it was (I think) 16 times the Moon distance, so I would expect very slow motion. A couple years ago I observed a really close flyby of a small NEO just 1/3 Moon distance. I recall that we could detect motion against a moderately rich background of stars in just 15 seconds or so. It was amazing! Dave Hudgins

Hey Dave When I was sure I found it, I compared the nearest star to it and found it to be at that star's 830 o'clock.

There was a nearby triangle as well that, after about an hour, it had moved down and formed a straight line with two of the triangle stars, making the movement much more obvious.

There was a nearby triangle as well that, after about an hour, it had moved down and formed a straight line with two of the triangle stars, making the movement much more obvious. I would say it was pretty slow movement, but very cool! Sky Safari has two entries for Florence, but both were slightly off. Just yesterday, they added a Florence_latest that should be right on now if you're using that chart at the eyepiece.

I'm wondering about how long did you have to watch the field to be able to detect motion of this asteroid? After all it was (I think) 16 times the Moon distance, so I would expect very slow motion. A couple years ago I observed a really close flyby of a small NEO just 1/3 Moon distance. I recall that we could detect motion against a moderately rich background of stars in just 15 seconds or so. It was amazing! Dave Hudgins [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Subject:Re: [ASKC] Re: Asteroid Florence (3122) Flyby
Message:
A few on the telescope/binocular line at Powell last night tried to locate Florence. We did not see it. We began at about 10:00, which the sky&telescope chart suggested would be the halfway point between the UT times marked on the path. We put Jerrel's Celestron NextStar 6SE (32mm eyepiece) on the starfield suggest by that tick mark. After a while, it was a better view than my 88mm binoculars, so I put those away. We kept it there until about 11:15 and checked every 10 minutes or so. We never saw any of the little dots move. Later, on my more recent Stellarium on the laptop at home, I see that our target star was LU Del.and some of the dots were 10 mag stars. However, neither the chart or our two versions of Stelarium with us showed the 10 mag stars. We should have seen it, but It probably passed through early while we were fixating on the star field or when we weren't checking it. (you know, the watched pot never boils). I was greatly disoriented by the mirror image, so not intuitively understanding the layout, I may have missed it while getting oriented. (New member) Chris, was looking too in a larger Meade scope and (visitor) Ron (from Pittsburg, a frequent observatory visitor who may become a new member soon) also helped check for it. Maybe we will find it next time. At which time, we will start earlier, check more often, and have a deeper chart with us. On Sat, Sep 2, 2017 at 8:54 PM, 'Mike Stewart' mike.n0tu@...

Two very large sunspot complexes visible now. AR2673 is the most intricate sunspot group I've observed. It looks like a giant galactic bug smashed on the face of the sun. Both AR2673 and the larger group, AR2674, will be visible in your eclipse glasses. There are two other groups, one east, one west if you have magnification. Hope you can take a look. Mike Stewart

I will add another short report to this. We were on Little Pilot Knob about 10 miles west of Potosi, MO for the whole eclipse. At about 15 minutes a single cloud moved across the sun and then it was totally clear. We enjoyed the quiet and lack of crowds. We were on a forest road and had a good view from the bed of the truck. We were there because of our participation in Summits on the Air through Amateur Radio. We had just completed an activation and stayed to watch the eclipse. We may go back in 2024.Martha Auchard Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Sun, Sep 3, 2017 at 21:59, Chad e Pilot Knob about 8 miles west of PotosiStovstovall.chad@...

I think it's all related to a storm we had earlier this year, it just took the modem/satellite a bit longer to poop out. It is in a relatively harsh environment compared to the suburbs.

Subject:Powell Public Night September 2nd
Message:
Even though the tractor pull drowned us out both with light and with noise most of the evening, team 1 pulled their weight quite well and edu-tained about 50 guests last Saturday night. The clouds pretty much had left by about 7:00 PM, but there was a lot of haze in the air with the moon causing a considerable gray-white background to the night sky. Saturn, Jupiter and the moon were the obvious targets, but Paul Macek was daring enough to also bring in M15 and later M31 using the Ruisinger. Go Paul! Dana Ulmo and Lindin Scott ran the scopes in the LCT. Keith Green and Debbie Harrelson gave the programs. David Preston worked the gate and also the classroom. Paul Macek ran the Ruisinger. Casey and Alex Carlile ran the gate. Jackie Beucher worked the gate, sold t-shirts and who knows what else, whilst yours truly wandered through the crowds pointing out stuff in the night sky with a green lasers and doing my best to answer questions. Jim Ketchum, Jerel Williams, Mike Meyers and a couple others I did not catch brought their own scopes out to help. We had a couple of new members show up to help and I'm afraid I didn't get all the names. I know Seth and Jeff were at Powell and one other new member and I apologize for not getting the names. We closed down a little after 11:00 PM and the tractor pull was still going full blast, emphasis on BLAST, with all their floodlights pointed to the west in the direction of the observatory. When I first drove into the park, one of the admission takers asked me what we did at the observatory as she had lived in Louisburg all her life and had never been there. I told her she should come over on a Saturday night and find out first hand. We will see. Rick Henderson

Subject:DSS Orientation
Message:
Hello Scott, My name is Chris Leake. I am a new member of ASKC. This past Saturday night at Powell, I was speaking with Jerel Williams about the DSS. He said I should reach out to you for a full orientation on how to properly access and use the DSS. On Saturday, August 26th, I decided to drive down to the DSS and had a wonderful night of observing. I arrived shortly after sunset but with enough time to setup my scope before nightfall. To my surprise there was no one else on the property. While I was there I did tour the restrooms and check out the showers. However I stopped there knowing I needed some else to show me around the rest of the property. Later I discovered the individual power panels were not "hot" and opted to not go looking for a main panel. It ended up being a dark and peaceful night at DSS. I enjoyed the chorus of frogs, hoot owls, coyotes and barking neighbor dogs. I have attached a couple of pictures showing my view of the Sagittarius region/ galactic core from that night. Looking forward to hearing back from you. Thanks, Chris [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Holy cow, what an incredible reddish/orange 99% full Moon last night! : ^ ) Of course we have all seen dull reddish full Moons very low on the horizon before, but I've never seen one so high in the sky. It was really very very strange looking. I hope others saw it too. Gosh, if it had only been Holloween, heh-heh! All due to the smoke from forest fires in Montana I believe.

I knew it was going to be an interesting sunset and moon last night. I observed the sun for about 4 hours yesterday in H-alpha and white light, along with some imaging. At times it was hard to distinguish if the sky was clear or not during the day. The sunspot groups were quite interesting in their makeup and shape. I haven't downloaded any images into AutoCad to calculate sizes. There was also a huge prominence that must have been about 30,000 miles high and about 80,000 miles long, if not more in both directions. Next time I will use several refractors since the secondary was an issue, especially when trying a focal reducer. However, it was terrific to have that much time to myself for observing at home.

My son and I also observed it on Saturday from my back porch near Liberty using the same set up as Chris. We could definitely notice a change in location relative to surrounding stars every 20 minutes. I thought his 6th grade attention span would get bored with it after a couple observations, but after an hour and a half we were both still intrigued by being able to observe an object as small as an asteroid. I was also using the star charts from theskylive.com and Sky Safari (Florence_latest marker). In hindsight, I should have got out my observing log and started drawing a few of our observations *smacks forehead* Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

Within maybe 15 minutes, it appeared to be much closer to 8 o'clock and shortly after, 730. There was a nearby triangle as well that, after about an hour, it had moved down and formed a straight line with two of the triangle stars, making the movement much more obvious. I would say it was pretty slow movement, but very cool! Sky Safari has two entries for Florence, but both were slightly off. Just yesterday, they added a Florence_latest that should be right on now if you're using that chart at the eyepiece.

I'm wondering about how long did you have to watch the field to be able to detect motion of this asteroid? After all it was (I think) 16 times the Moon distance, so I would expect very slow motion. A couple years ago I observed a really close flyby of a small NEO just 1/3 Moon distance. I recall that we could detect motion against a moderately rich background of stars in just 15 seconds or so. It was amazing! Dave Hudgins

Most of the time, if we do see an aurora this far south, it would be on the northern horizon – but not always! Back in the early 90’s, it was visible north, and all the way down, overhead. Vic Winter and others got some beautiful shots of Powell Observatory and the aurora that night. And one year (much later) there was a report of aurora visible locally, so I got in the car and drove west – closest direction for me, to have a dark northern horizon. I still couldn’t see it, so called the guy that reported it, Dave Preston. Lo and behold,…. The neon-green patches of aurora were visible in the ESE sky! Go figure. It was beautiful. Jackie B.

I am doing my semi-anual cleaning in my office and have discovered a partial roll of Baadar solar film about 19" by 12". If anyone would like to make a filter to observe the latest group of huge sunspots, drop me a note. As always it's at cost for 15 cents per square inch.

The CME from Wednesday's X9 solar flare hit Earth's magnetic field approximately 1800 CDT. It arrived earlier than expected. A severe G4-class geomagnetic storm is in progress. Northern states should see aurora, despite the glare from the full moon. NOAA SWPC says that aurora may be seen as far south as Alabama and northern California. http://hfradio.org/aurora_globe.html Worth keeping an eye on the aurora oval for the evening.

Message:
I would like to extend my gratitude to Scott Kranz and Jerel Williams for taking time out of their schedule for today's DSS orientation. What an amazing turnout. I didn't count, but would guess there were 20 new members in attendance. The tour was very thorough and informative. I appreciate the time taken to answer everyone's questions and to go over ever part of the property. The DSS is a huge perk to all ASKC members. Now that I understand how to properly access and use the property, my excitement about it being available to me is palpable Thank you! Chris Leake

Message:
Hey everybody! My name is Winsor Corkins, and I just recently joined ASKC. Just wanted to stop in and introduce myself. I live in St. Joseph, MO. My current telescope is an 8" XT8 Orion Dob. Fairly new to amateur astronomy so I might have a lot of newbie questions in the future. Hope to make it to some of the meetings and events, but due to the drive, and having a 9 month old son, I won't be able to make it to as much as I'd like, but I think I'll be making it to the pot luck this month. Hope to see some of you there!

Message:
Hi folks: I, too, am a new member to ASKC. I joined in early August and attended the General Meeting at Royal Hall. I recently retired (June 30th 2017), following 30 years in the pharmaceutical industry and currently live in Overland Park, KS with my wife Joan. Our two daughters also live in the general area. I've been engaged in amateur astronomy for more than 45 years, but finally have more time to devote to it. My current equipment includes an 80 mm f/6 StellarVue Blackhawk refractor, a 10 inch f/10 Meade LX200 ACF schmidt-cassegrain telescope, and a 16 inch f/8 Ritchey-Chretien astrograph telescope permanently mounted in a domed, backyard observatory. The RC is a relatively new acquisition that I'm still fine-tuning operationally. My astronomy interests are directed toward lunar, planetary and deep-sky imaging, though I have a long way to go before I can declare any measure of progress. I just completed an orientation session at the dark sky site and look forward to a deeper integration into the group. Rick Angelo

Message:
Any of our science-minded members may want to see the movie Marie Curie at the Tivoli theater. OK, it may not be astronomy, but it does cover the Curie's early years with their radium studies. If you've seen old photos of them it's hard to visualize them as young people. And this movie does a nice job of following their work, life, and life's many complications and entanglements. One walks away with a bit of perspective on how much has changed in the last 100 years, and sadly how much really hasn't. Dave Brackey

Subject:Powell public night photos
Message:
I have been asked by the Louisburg newspaper for a couple of photos of the public at Powell this summer. If anyone has one, please email it directly to me at rhenderson1@kc.rr.com. They, of course, need it by today. Please do not reply to this email with the picture as Yahoo will block the picture. Thanks. Rick Henderson Apologies in advance. My "smart" phone autocorrect is not my friend.

Thanks Dave. You inspired me to Google and found - Women Who Changed the World - In the footsteps of Marie Curie just watched outstanding 52 min video on line - free YouTube -----Original Message----- From: dbrackey@att.net [ASKC] <ASKC@yahoogroups.com> To: ASKC <ASKC@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Mon, Sep 11, 2017 8:29 pm Subject: [ASKC] A bit of science, a bit of life: Marie Curie Any of our science-minded members may want to see the movie Marie Curie at the Tivoli theater. OK, it may not be astronomy, but it does cover the Curie's early years with their radium studies. If you've seen old photos of them it's hard to visualize them as young people. And this movie does a nice job of following their work, life, and life's many complications and entanglements. One walks away with a bit of perspective on how much has changed in the last 100 years, and sadly how much really hasn't. Dave Brackey

It's billed as a star gazing night. Some displays might be useful but this is typically outside in the field north east of the school. Redbridge Shool is a couple of blocks from my house. ASKC has been going for years. Set up at 7:00 but of course that will be well before dark. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@... On Tue, Sep 12, 2017 at 7:53 AM, 'Jackie Beucher' m31@...

Message:
Hello! This will be a private night at Powell for the members and benefactors of Prairie Fire Museum, to coincide with the opening of "Beyond Planet Earth". It will be an excellent opportunity for the ASKC and Powell to show "our stuff". They will come out early to picnic, followed by a program and viewing through the telescopes. I'd like a telescope operator, and others, perhaps, to bring their own 'scopes down. Manning the LCT would be great as well! Let me know if you can help, OK? Thanks! Jackie M31@.... Thanks!

Like I said, I put the Redbridge school night on the NSN calendar over 6 months ago. They scheduled on Feb 25, reconfirmed on March 9 and yesterday they confirmed September 22 with a set up time of 7:00. Apparently no one looks at the NSN calendar. You arranged a private night at Powell for the Museum at Prairie Fire on the same night but that would usually not be a problem. This time it just happens that I'm leaving the country Saturday morning. All we need is enough volunteers to cover both places. Three telescopes at Redbridge would be plenty. They have told families the event will be over at 9:00 PM so it will be an early evening. Hell, if I get everything packed and in the car I may go to Redbridge anyway. It's only a couple of blocks from my house so I could be in bed by 10:00. I can just leave the stuff in the Tahoe while I'm gone. Ron Roth and Jim Carothers have indicated they can go to Redbridge so the event is on. I hate to blow off a school that we have been going to for years.

From what I've seen, they will be firing all thrusters wide open to slow the craft's descent as well as maintain Earth antenna alignment as long as possible. There are detectors for spectroscopy and gas that will be running thru end of transmission. I suspect they will not take any photos past the final one at 1PM PDT this afternoon, but I could be wrong. From CNET article: "On Thursday afternoon, just before 1 p.m. PT, the ship will take what might be its final goodbye images. About 25 minutes later, it will turn its antenna toward Earth and start sending back its last shipment of data. NASA says the communications link with Cassini will stay open continuously for the remaining 14 or so hours of its mission, right up until it goes dark.

Message:
The ASKC Club Star Party is on for tonight. It will be south of the Tractor Pull Arena that is on the other side of the tree line that is east of Powell. Pull into the Tractor Pull Arena parking lot. Follow the unimproved dirt road on the east side of the arena. We'll be just south of the Arena. In daylight, it will be hard to see us from the road. You will see us when you start down the unimproved dirt road. I will be their not later than 7:00. Sunset is a 7:26. I suggest getting there when it still light. It is a tough arrival after dark because you get to drive the unimproved dirt road lights out. After dark, you cannot see us from the road. In fact, you won't be able to see us until just before you arrive. Clouds makes this event a toss-up. (My risk qualifier; the worst that can happen is we all get to talk with each other.) My forecast: 10-20% cloud cover. Clouds you see this afternoon are moving out. Average to poor transparency. We have been getting a high haze in the air magnified by forest fires out west. Average to poor seeing. This is expected given transparency, moisture content, and high level turbulence due to a new front coming. Anyone wanting to magnify above 100x will be disappointed. General views of star clusters and "widely spaced" double stars should be okay. Not a good night to try to split the double-double with my 6" scope. Saturn is up until 9:30 -10:00. We still get some of the Milky Way objects in the early evening. Overhead we get the Summer Triangle all evening. People staying late will get to view some objects in Andromeda, Cassiopeia, and possibly Perseus. It is Kansas so we can be easily fooled, either way unfortunately, but I'm an optimist and need to get out of the house. Next week we get a new front coming through that may hose it up, too. Bring Insect Repellent. Be careful where you spray it to avoid contaminating someone's optics.

Subject:Missing Powell Public Night Reports
Message:
Okay, folks and Powell Team Leaders in particular. I just spent the last two hours going through all my emails since the beginning of May 2017 looking for Powell public night reports I have and haven't received this season and the un-received reports about equal the ones I have received. I am missing Powell Public Night reports for the following dates: 06/03 06/10 07/22 07/29 08/12 08/26 09/09 Now, it is possible that in searching through my last 800+ emails that I might have missed a report or two, but the fact that about half of the reports I do receive have subject lines that bear little or no resemblance to the information held within doesn't help at all. THIS IS IMPORTANT STUFF!!!! We are trying to relocate Powell and raise money to do it. One of the things that will be required is an accurate record of our public outreach efforts and number associated with it. I can't just make these numbers up as I may be asked for supporting information. TEAM LEADERS please help by sending in a report within a day or two of your public night. Putting something in the subject line like: Powell Public Night Report, Saturday, 09/02/17 would be a big help. From what information I have received we have had 1182 visitors at Powell this season. Add in the seven missing reports and we might be close to 2,000, but who knows?!?!?!? Please, someone, help me fill in the blanks. Thank you. Rick

Message:
The ASKC still has an inventory of Eclipse tee-shirts. See them here: www.askc.org/store The price is now $15 each. You can order them via the website (price to be changed there within a day or so) and pay the shipping, via USPS. Or you can contact me directly, and make arrangements to pick up at the picnic, general meeting, or at my home - your choice! Yes, we accept credit cards everywhere now. The club has sold many hundreds of these, but we need to sell the last 40 or so in stock. Please consider ordering them for yourself, or perhaps for Christmas presents! We'd sure appreciate your help. Please forward this to any person who might be interested. Thanks! Jackie B. (I already have 3. Two to make sure one is clean, and another larger one to sleep in. I bought one for all family members as "eclipse presents", too!) Jackie Beucher, Vice President Astronomical Society of Kansas City 913-522-8799 (cell) M31@...

Subject:Upcoming ISS Lunar/Solar Transits
Message:
Hey all, hope I'm not transmitting info that everyone already knows, but I saw that there are going to be some local ISS transits of the moon and sun over the next month. Check it out if you haven't already. I'm going off the info from http://transit-finder.com http://transit-finder.com/results The first lunar transit is 9/24/17. There is a 10/4/17 lunar transit that has a center line that passes right over Olathe. A lunar transit on 10/7/17 has a center line that passes just north of downtown KCMO and has a duration of 3 seconds. There is also a transit of the sun on 10/4/17 that passes directly over Overland Park. May be a good time to get some cool video/stills. Anyway, happy viewing! Mitchell Cloud

I'll be out of town for the first event but the other events are interesting. They will probably have refi ed paths as the dates get closer. I would be interested in trying to capture a transit. I have a 90mm Solar max and a DMK41 Video camera but it will not give a full disk image. I also have access to our CATE 80mm refractor and with a Point Grey camera. It can take a series of rapid frames of the moon or the sun. Another option is my Canon with a 400 mm lens and 1.4x teleconverter. That will yield a nice sized image.

Anything more than a couple days out is going to shift a bit. The further into the future, the more the shift will be. It may completely miss the Moon or Sun, especially when your target is only a half degree in size. This is actually one of the activities of the Earth Orbiting Satellite Program. Plot out the path of a future pass and then record what the actual path is when it happens.

Dave Hudgins reported that Metcalf Road is closed between 247th Street and 255th Street. Traffic map shows that this is for road construction. Visitors and staff (and picnickers headed to Circle Grove) have to go further south to the Hwy 68 exit to access Powell. Maps also shows Metcalf closed between Main St (Hwy 68) and N 3rd St in Louisburg itself. Have no way to verify that from my present position. Mike

Message:
Our bad. I saw that sign on Metcalf a few days ago and totally forgot to mention it. The road is closed south of 247 at about 255 or so for bridge repair. It will likely be closed for a couple of weeks. Like David H says, you will need to go down to Louisburg and come in the "back" way via 271st street.

It did go well. We had extra volunteers arrive and plenty of staff. I'm sure a report will be given, but we had a lot of people and many of them stayed for a long time. There were two telescopes in the field and a new member setting his new scope up and explaining the current night sky. The sky was cloudless but increasingly hazy, and it seemed to refuse to get really dark. So it was a good night sky in general but not in detail.

Subject:New Refrigerator delivered to Powell -- Old beast needs removed and disposed of.
Message:
Hello All; One of the items covered by the budget for Powell for the current fiscal year is/was a new refrigerator. Today, Twyla and I visited the Sears Outlet on Front St. and found a Kenmore, bottom-freezer; Having the refrigerator portion on top will make access for drinks, etc. sooo much easier. Sears had it for 45% of list price, with an additional 10% discount. Since the sale was in Missouri, we also used the ASKC tax exempt certificate. We came in _well_ under our target price, so Bonus! Twyla, Matt, and I just returned from delivering the new chill chest to Powell: for now it is sitting in the class-room; it will be swapped with the existing brown box later this week. The aforementioned science experiment gone wrong needs disposed of.... Is anyone having a 'free large-item pickup' by their trash service in the _very_ near future? Or, know of a place that will take the old, tired beast, hopefully for a very small fee? I would not feel right foisting the smelly old thing off on anyone to actually use, as it consumes lots of energy and has black, tendril-like things growing from various internal orifices. I'd like to have it gone this week, before Friday at the latest. Jason Forst

It will be at the clubhouse at Gramercy Place Condo's, just south of 95th and Perry Lane, in Overland Park. This is very close to 95th and Hi-way 69, which makes it easily accessible for most of us.

I did not hear back from you and since we are about two months out from this event, I was wondering if you would like to participate. We currently have over 40 organizations signed up to participate in the event including Cabela's Outdoor Store, Cedar Cove Feline Conservatory, CoCo Key Water Resort, Cosmosphere (Hutchinson KS), Durham Museum (Omaha NE), Eisenhower Library/Museum (Abilene KS), Ernie Miller Park, Johnson County Museum, Lakeside Nature Center, Mahaffie Stagecoach Stop & FArm, Missouri State Parks, Money Museum, Museum at PrairieFire, National Museum of Toys & Miniatures, National World War I Museum, Northland Rolladium Skate Center, Operation Wildlife, Oerland Park ARboretum, Paul Messner Puppets, Piccadilly Productions, ROKC Climbing Facility, Snow Creek, Strataca Kansas Underground Salt Museum (Hutchinson KS), Strategic Air Command Museum, TWA Museum, KC Union Station and Wings of Love. This is an opportunity to join these groups of getting your organization in front of approximately 500 of the most active Scouters (adults) and about 100 older Scouts who lead the almost 30,000 Scouts and over 14,000 adult volunteers in the greater KC area. You can find out more about what the Heart of America Council (HOAC) does at <http://www.hoac-bsa.org/Data/Sites/1/media/finance-documents/2016-Scouting-In-Kansas-City.pdf> http://www.hoac-bsa.org/Data/Sites/1/media/finance-documents/2016-Scouting-I n-Kansas-City.pdf. Annually, HOAC holds a training/education event to help our volunteers become better leaders and open up to them the diverse opportunities and activities for Scouts in the area. As part of this event, we have a "Midway" where organizations can demonstrate to these Scout leaders how they can work with Scouts to their mutual benefit. There is NO COST for groups to participate in the Midway unless your group wants to sell something. If that is the case, there is a $50 vendor fee. If you can, we would like you to provide your own table. If you do not have a table available, we will have tables available. Let us know if you prefer one that is 6-foot or 8-foot long. If you need electricity to run a video or laptop, please let me know that also. For now, I just need to know if you are interested in attending our event in on November 4, 2017. If you do not wish to be contacted in future years, you can let me know that so I will not bother you again.

I did not hear back from you and since we are about two months out from this event, I was wondering if you would like to participate. We currently have over 40 organizations signed up to participate in the event including Cabela's Outdoor Store, Cedar Cove Feline Conservatory, CoCo Key Water Resort, Cosmosphere (Hutchinson KS), Durham Museum (Omaha NE), Eisenhower Library/Museum (Abilene KS), Ernie Miller Park, Johnson County Museum, Lakeside Nature Center, Mahaffie Stagecoach Stop & FArm, Missouri State Parks, Money Museum, Museum at PrairieFire, National Museum of Toys & Miniatures, National World War I Museum, Northland Rolladium Skate Center, Operation Wildlife, Oerland Park ARboretum, Paul Messner Puppets, Piccadilly Productions, ROKC Climbing Facility, Snow Creek, Strataca Kansas Underground Salt Museum (Hutchinson KS), Strategic Air Command Museum, TWA Museum, KC Union Station and Wings of Love. This is an opportunity to join these groups of getting your organization in front of approximately 500 of the most active Scouters (adults) and about 100 older Scouts who lead the almost 30,000 Scouts and over 14,000 adult volunteers in the greater KC area. You can find out more about what the Heart of America Council (HOAC) does at http://www.hoac-bsa.org/Data/Sites/1/media/finance-documents/2016-Scouting-I n-Kansas-City.pdf. Annually, HOAC holds a training/education event to help our volunteers become better leaders and open up to them the diverse opportunities and activities for Scouts in the area. As part of this event, we have a "Midway" where organizations can demonstrate to these Scout leaders how they can work with Scouts to their mutual benefit. There is NO COST for groups to participate in the Midway unless your group wants to sell something. If that is the case, there is a $50 vendor fee. If you can, we would like you to provide your own table. If you do not have a table available, we will have tables available. Let us know if you prefer one that is 6-foot or 8-foot long. If you need electricity to run a video or laptop, please let me know that also. For now, I just need to know if you are interested in attending our event in on November 4, 2017. If you do not wish to be contacted in future years, you can let me know that so I will not bother you again. Details: Date: Saturday, November 4, 2017 Time: Set up by 11 AM and break down at 2 PM Location: Metropolitan Community College Business & Technology Campus, 1775 North Universal Avenue, Kansas City MO 64120 Cost: NONE unless you want to sell something ($50 & contact me for details) Table: Let me know your preferred size (6- or 8-foot long) Power: Let me know if you need it If you have questions, the best way to reach me is to email me at PKUJayhawk@gmail.com. My business phone is 913-684-7946 (normally 6 AM-2:30 PM, Monday-Friday) and my cell phone is 913-378-3324. I look forward to hearing from you. H.

Due to recent developments and an application, Rita and I will be out of town for our final Team 7 night and need a key holder (trade or replacement) and a person at the gate for Oct. 21st. Yes, the Saturday night of the star party. Team 7 has only 1 Key Holder. Help at the gate with electronic machine is also needed. Otherwise, everything else is covered.

Message:
Trailwood Elementary School Science Night is already on the NSN Calendar for 1/18. These two schools frequently get confused and names used interchangeably by accident. Both Brookwood and Trailwood have been supported by ASKC annually. Are you saying we will have both on the same night? That's going to be tough to support. I will take the lead on one of them, but need some clarification about schedule and which one. I personally prefer Trailwood because I know some families in that school. Please provide some clarification. Jerel Williams jerel1948@yahoo.com

Well, this is awkward. I will be out of town every weekend in October except for the 28th which is our general meeting, which I will be hosting. Jackie, our VP, will be at Powell that night and can't fill in for me at the GM. So, basically, I can't offer a trade for a team night for the 14th. Is there anyone who would really, really like to help out on the 14th and take my place? I will owe you one, however that might play out.

Subject:HOASP - "CLEAN IT UP" WEEKEND - October 14-15th (or this weekend, if that is free for you)
Message:
Hello, Everyone! It is time to get the DSS cleaned up for our Star Party, which begins in less than two weeks. We have two weekends to get this done. We could use your help, for whenever you can. Here is what we do: 1. Sweep out and hose out the shower building. Scrub sinks. 2. Outhouse - ditto. Sweep out and clean. 3. REB Building - a. Sweep out entirely. b. Set up all the tables and chairs - wash them down, with germ-killing solution. c. Wash down all other tables and counters. d. Clean stove, wipe out refrigerators. e. Knock down cobwebs. f. Anything else you might see that needs cleaning. I am totally tied down this weekend with other duties, but please do go down if you can. (I will see you next Saturday around 9:00 AM..) I'd appreciate your reporting back to me of anything that gets done this weekend. If anyone can do an inventory of what supplies are down there (most all stored in big plastic containers in kitchen area), I'd appreciate it. I need to know what else to buy. Also.. there are telescopes at David Young's home that need to be taken down to the DSS, prior to the star party. He lives near I-435 and Wornall. Give him a call if you can help: 913-558-1155. Thanks, everyone! And, please do let me know if and when you are able to go down. With gratitude.

So, Rick. Sounds like you WILL be in town on the 28th, so why would you need someone to fill in? Jackie <big smile> From: ASKC@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ASKC@yahoogroups.com] Sent: Thursday, October 05, 2017 9:38 PM To: ASKC@yahoogroups.com Subject: [ASKC] October 14th Team Night Well, this is awkward. I will be out of town every weekend in October except for the 28th which is our general meeting, which I will be hosting. Jackie, our VP, will be at Powell that night and can't fill in for me at the GM. So, basically, I can't offer a trade for a team night for the 14th. Is there anyone who would really, really like to help out on the 14th and take my place? I will owe you one, however that might play out. Please reply directly to me at rhenderson1@... if you could do so and thank you. Rick Henderson

I have a request for a private night for a small family group on Friday October 20. One of the duty pair will be out of town. That is also during the HOA. Any one interesting in staffing it?

Subject:Asteroid 2012 TC4 Close Approach
Message:
Here's a potential observing project for this week. On Thursday, 12 Oct 2017, Asteroid 2012 TC4 will pass within the orbit of the Moon, At closest approach, it will be approximately 50,000 km from Earth. Current estimates suggest it should peak around 13th magnitude. Although it passes closer than 3122 Florence did back in August, 2012 TC4's magnitude is far less. The good news is that mag. 13 is well within the capabilities of an 8-inch reflector. You'll want a detailed finder chart to sort out the asteroid from the background stars. This will require a charting program and current ephemerides. http://2012tc4.astro.umd.edu/ http://astrobob.areavoices.com/2017/10/03/asteroid-2012-tc4-on-track-for-clo se-earth-flyby/ Good luck.

Subject:October 15th Regulus Occultation
Message:
from David Dunham: On Sunday morning, Oct. 15, around 10h UT, the 19% to 20% sunlit Moon will occult Regulus for all of the “lower 48” States, except Washington State, as well as populous parts of southeastern Canada and Mexico. The 1.4-mag. star’s reappearance will be a spectacular naked-eye event in the pre-dawn sky for most (the reappearance will occur in bright twilight in New England). And the reappearance could provide a rare chance to briefly record the close 12th-mag. white dwarf companion of Regulus that was discovered in 2005. A map showing the general region of visibility, and predictions for the disappearance and reappearance for over 700 cities, is at http://www.lunar-occultations.com/iota/bstar/1015zc1487.htm http://www.lunar-occultations.com/iota/bstar/1015zc1487.htm . With the rather thin crescent Moon, this is arguably the best lunar occultation of 2017 for most of the USA.

Subject:Warko Deck Completed
Message:
It is official! The construction of the deck and electrical work is completed. It was a complete tear-off of the decking. The new structure is 2x6 construction on 12" centers spanning 5ft. It is level and sturdy! New lights and GFCI protection has been added. The staff was up there last Friday night trying out the 16" and looking it over. I just spoke with UMKC and the Ethernet run is being put into the schedule. So, once that is completed, we will have internet access....wooh who! Next step is to speak with media relations department about doing live feed from the scope to the university broadcast system. Hmm, I wonder about doing remote imaging from room 404 during the winter. Opens the door to more possibilities.

On Saturday, Cindy and I mowed the observing field, plus all the extra acreage for the star party. We spread the chigger/tick granules, and sprayed 15 gallons of RoundUp.

I plan to be there. I went down last Sunday from 9:00 until 3:00. I dropped of some telescopes and assembled one of the large ones. I mowed part of the field but ran out of gas. Scott and Cindy arrived at 11:00 with gas and enthusiasm. They both started mowing and I went into town to get more gas and some materials to repair one of the shower doors that had blown off. We thought we would replace one of the anchors. The end blocks are solid dine filled them with mirror when we built it. We were drilling away when we hit metal half way through. Damn rebar. We gave up on the through bolt idea and reinstalled the expantion bolt anchor but cranked it very hard. Scott and Cindy were still miwing when I left. We couldn't put down the bug killer until the mowing was dine. I don't know if they got that done. If not it can be done this Sunday.

Subject:Warko Friday Night - Busy Night!
Message:
Tomorrow night will be very busy at the Warko and extra help is always welcomed. Several events are happening and additional staffing would be great on the roof starting at 7:00 PM. Help with the reception table, sky tours and additional assistance at the telescopes are needed. If crowd size is too large, we will route visitors to room 404 to view meteorites (or some kind of filler time - solar system distance modeling?) as a control point and then to the roof. Odds are, it will be a steady stream and this will not be required, but planning isn't a bad idea. Rita and I will be meeting with Girl Scouts in a classroom from 7-8pm. This meeting is the inaugural kick-off event of forming a Girl Scout Astronomy Club in our council. OSI (Office of Student Involvement) is conducting its annual Family Weekend and has been promoting visiting the observatory. Last year we had over 120 visitors from this group make their was to the observatory. Also, with the completion of rebuilding, who knows how many will show. Through grants and other funding, the operation of the Warko by the ASKC contributes a significant sum to the ASKC, not to mention new members and interest in the ASKC. Don't forget to grab a view through the telescopes while there. Our targets are from the Urban Observing Award list and you can record them towards your award.

Subject:NEO RFI (Request for Information) NASA
Message:
I just received this noticeJoe PDCO NEOO Partnerships RFI Planetary Defense Coordination Office Near Earth Objects Observations Partnerships Request for Information Through this Request for Information (RFI) NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office (PDCO) is soliciting capability statements to identify private sector and philanthropic organizations that could contribute to the Near-Earth Object (NEO) Observations Program. This RFI will be used for planning purposes only and will be internally reviewed. NASA will use the information obtained as a result of this RFI on a non-attribution basis. Responses of up to 10 pages must be submitted by November 13, 2017, via NSPIRES in response to NNH17ZDA009L. The specific objective of this RFI is to seek information on organizations that NASA’s PDCO could partner with to enhance the NEO Observations Program and specific information on their capabilities that could aid in this Survey. For example: Your organization’s specific capabilities (both current or already in development) that could be leveraged to achieve the goals of the NEO Observations (NEOO) Program. Examples include: telescopes with effective aperture diameters, instrumentation specifications, infrared sensors, long range radars with power and resolution, satellite technical information, ground station information, and technical information about related assets your organization controls. Mechanisms that NASA could use to expand collaborative partnership with your organization to detect, track, catalogue, and categorize NEOs. Examples include: public-private partnerships, data sharing agreements, and memoranda of understanding. Previous relevant experience is also of interest. Capability areas that PDCO is interested in include but are not limited to: 1. Data Processing and Management2. Detection and Tracking3. Follow-Up4. Characterization Information on capabilities in these areas or other areas not listed but that could be potentially helpful to PDCO should include information on current capabilities as well as capabilities in development that will be available without any partnership with NASA. Capabilities reported in development should not include any that are contingent on initiation of a partnership with NASA before they could be implemented. Please refer to the full text of this RFI which is posted as a PDF on the NSPIRES web page at NNH17ZDA009L for background information, response guidelines, and other details. Questions concerning this Request for Information should be emailed to Dr. Kelly Fast kelly.e.fast@.... _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Subject:I just recieve donation of telescope stuff from the daughter of a gentleman that recently died. His name was Frank Watson. His daughter said he was an amateur astronomer and participated in the building of Powell. Does anyone recall this fellow? He held on until after the eclipse and went to St. Joseph to see it. He stipulated that his Astro stuff go to ASKC. I haven't had a chance make a full inventory of what is in all of the cases but I think it's a Celestron SC with tripod, wedge and "stuff".

Just thought that I would mention that not ONE person has stepped forward and said… “I will help”. Rick H. is out of town this weekend, but will come to the star party early and do whatever is left to do. I don’t know if anyone did anything this past weekend. I will be there this Saturday around 9:00 or shortly thereafter. Sure would appreciate some help….. thanks! We now are up to 84 attendees. Jackie B.

It is time to get the DSS cleaned up for our Star Party, which begins in less than two weeks. We have two weekends to get this done. We could use your help, for whenever you can. Here is what we do: 1. Sweep out and hose out the shower building. Scrub sinks. 2. Outhouse – ditto. Sweep out and clean. 3. REB Building – a. Sweep out entirely. b. Set up all the tables and chairs – wash them down, with germ-killing solution. c. Wash down all other tables and counters. d. Clean stove, wipe out refrigerators. e. Knock down cobwebs. f. Anything else you might see that needs cleaning. I am totally tied down this weekend with other duties, but please do go down if you can. (I will see you next Saturday around 9:00 AM….) I’d appreciate your reporting back to me of anything that gets done this weekend. If anyone can do an inventory of what supplies are down there (most all stored in big plastic containers in kitchen area), I’d appreciate it. I need to know what else to buy. Also…. there are telescopes at David Young’s home that need to be taken down to the DSS, prior to the star party. He lives near I-435 and Wornall. Give him a call if you can help: 913-558-1155.

Tomorrow night will be very busy at the Warko and extra help is always welcomed. Several events are happening and additional staffing would be great on the roof starting at 7:00 PM. Help with the reception table, sky tours and additional assistance at the telescopes are needed. If crowd size is too large, we will route visitors to room 404 to view meteorites (or some kind of filler time - solar system distance modeling?) as a control point and then to the roof. Odds are, it will be a steady stream and this will not be required, but planning isn't a bad idea. Rita and I will be meeting with Girl Scouts in a classroom from 7-8pm. This meeting is the inaugural kick-off event of forming a Girl Scout Astronomy Club in our council. OSI (Office of Student Involvement) is conducting its annual Family Weekend and has been promoting visiting the observatory. Last year we had over 120 visitors from this group make their was to the observatory. Also, with the completion of rebuilding, who knows how many will show. Through grants and other funding, the operation of the Warko by the ASKC contributes a significant sum to the ASKC, not to mention new members and interest in the ASKC. Don't forget to grab a view through the telescopes while there. Our targets are from the Urban Observing Award list and you can record them towards your award.

I remember Frank., He was membership secretary for a couple of years, and was on the board of directors for another year or two. One of the quiet, nice, competent types. Good guy, I do not remember what his telescope equipment was. C-8 is likely for that early to mid 80's time frame. Kathy Machin On Thu, Oct 12, 2017 at 11:45 AM, David Young youngmdavid@...

Be sure to take down cleaning supplies like Clorox wipes. There is a half gallon of pure bleach down there that is only 2 months old. You can partially dilute that with water and put it into spray bottles for cleaning also. For now, you can clean around the lawn mowers, trailers, and shelf area on the north wall. I will be moving all that stuff out and cleaning it on either Sunday or Monday. There were billions of flies in the building last Sunday. I have an old bug zapper that I am going to take down and see if that will kill many of the flies.

Message:
Small private group last night; at the end of the evening, Dennis and I were unable to dislodge the dome from an azimuth between 270° and 315° (WNW). We used the extension cord to power the motor to close the shutter, and left the rope and extension cord in the dome. Other than that, everybody had a good time, and we were able to observe Saturn, Albireo, M11, M13, M31, and M57, besides talk through various asterisms and constellations.

I'll be going to Powell early-to-mid afternoon and will fix the done then. Possibly low air pressure in the tires. Did the dome work OK before that?

Subject:Rain out at Powell observatory, Public Night, 10/14/2027
Message:
With all the National Weather Service storm alerts earlier tonight, heavy wind, rain, thunder,and lightening, we had no public show up. Thanks to Team #1 members who were here at the Observatory tonight: Keith Green Seth Seagraves Paul Macek David Preston Debbie Harrelson Also thanks to OD, Jason Forst, and Mike Stewart who were there attending to Observatory business. By the way, it looks like the heavy wind during the rain storm caused quite a bit of rain to leak through the east classroom wall. We sopped this as up as well as possible. The signin book got slightly wet, so we put this in the kitchen so that hopefully it won't get any wetter if we have further weather issues later on tonight. Signing out from Powell!

We also got the main part of the floor all swept, the tables out and washed/wiped down, also all the chairs. I’d say that all but 10% of the flies that had been in residence had left the building while we were there. Why they were hanging out on all the light supports is beyond me! Thanks to: Jim Carothers, Paul Macek, Larry Herndeon, Glen Leber and David Young! All pitched in and worked hard. It was a warm sunny day down there – no rain Friday night or Saturday DAY.

Just when you thought you were already paranoid, news was announced today that the WPA and WPA2 encryption used on almost all WiFi devices including smart phones has been hacked. Cell phones are particularly vulnerable because of their mobility. I turned WiFi off on mine. Patches for phones and routers will be coming out, but not sure when. Rick Henderson Apologies in advance. My "smart" phone autocorrect is not my friend.

Subject:Observation of binary neuron star merger - amazing!
Message:
Yesterday morning I watched the live announcement from ESO in Germany about their observation over the past few months by telescopes in visible light of the merger of two neutron stars first detected by LIGO gravity wave detectors in August 2017. This is a truly astonishing scientific achievement. The first time that gravity wave detections have been exactly located in the sky by optical telescopes ...and detailed spectra of the event recorded over several weeks. Forgive my enthusiasm, but this is truly historical, and amazing new science will come out of this! 1. An overview in a 3 minute video can be seen by going to http://www.eso.org/public/ and select the first video, ESOcast 133. 2. better yet, you can see/scan thru the entire one hour news conference (it is truly fascinating for the astro scientifically inclined) with many amazing scientific details of this discovery at https://www.eso.org/public/live/ starting at about time = 9 minutes. Enjoy - Dave Hudgins

Message:
Wednesday night into Thursday morning at the DSS, we observed a large amount of Orionids from 4am to 6am. I made an effort to keep count and watch for them from 4-5am and counted close to 25. Thursday night into Friday morning there seemed to be fewer around the same time, so I wondered if maybe they were a bit off with their peak projections. Hopefully it stays clear tonight for everyone long enough for Orion to get up high in the sky and see if their projected rates hold up (I had to leave). Also, the zodiacal light at 5am Thursday morning was spectacular and very large! Looks like some clouds might be hindering observing soon but another window may push in by the looks of the visible cloud cover loop:http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/eaus/vis-animated.gif Infrared: http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/eaus/ir2-animated.gif Clear Skies!Brad Brad Weaver | weaver.brad@...

I would like to express my appreciation and thanks to the team of staff astronomers at the Warko, Powell's Team 7 and Observatory Director Jason Forst. First, Warko's staff for doing a great job Friday night at the observatory being short staffed. Secondly, Team 7 (comprised of Warko Staff) and Jason Forst for being at Powell for Team 7 night being short staffed. Stuart Riley was presenter for the night's topic with everyone position ready for a night of astronomy. From reports, an unwanted visitor arrived and ruined the evening....CLOUDS and RAIN. Jason stood in for me as Key Holder while Rita and I were away. These dedicated people served back to back nights at two observatories basically sacrificing their attending the HoASP.

Message:
For Sale. Meade 16” F 4.5 Starfinder on a German Equatorial mount. 1.5 in shafts on the mount. Original owner and it has spent most of it's time in an observatory. Excellent condition. 2” 1-1/4 focuser. The secondary holder and spider have been changed to a Novak indexed system and the secondary has been replaced/downsized to a 3.1 mirror. This improves contrast and planetary images. Comes with the original 4” secondary mirror in it's own holder. Easy to change from 3.1 to 4” secondary mirror with the Novak system. The telescope sets on a custom built metal triangle base on heavy duty casters. It can be rolled around on smooth concrete. Comes with a tel rad and an 11x80 Orion Big Eye finder. Dual axis drive and a Meade dual axis drive corrector. Priced to sell at $950. Original price was around $2,500 with all of these extras. Email for photos. Can deliver/show at Powell Observatory.

Subject:Re: [ASKC] PID Tuning Servo Motors
Message:
Hi Roger: Thanks for the response. The application that runs my mount and telescope is called Servo II by Sidereal Technology. It is comprised of two applications - one program to setup the system for the mount/OTA and another program to simply operate the telescope. The two programs cannot run simultaneously, so as a consequence I have make tuning adjustments in one program. Close it. Then launch the telescope operation program to see what effects the adjustments had on tracking performance. I assess the telescope tracking performance visually using moderate magnification on the lunar surface. I find this approach enables me to see minor oscillations and measure their endurance. So my endpoints for PID tuning, thus far, have been the a) the absence of visual oscillations and b) the absence of audible noises (clicking, ticking sounds) coming from the RA housing. Thus far, I've been able to achieve PID settings that meet these endpoints, however when I slew the telescope to a new position I see the recurrence of oscillations (for a brief period of 30" - 90") and there is distinct, but brief, ticking sound coming from the RA housing. It, too, subsides after a short period of time. So I clearly need to extend my performance endpoints to include performance assessment after slewing the telescope. Any thoughts or ideas on this dilemma? Rick

Hi all, Just in time to miss the HOASP, it looks like our satellite internet connection has finally been successfully repaired and is up and running. Scott Kranz and David Young were both able to connect and get good download and upload data rates out on the observing field. Also, many thanks to Jim Ketchum for making at least three trips to the DSS and waiting, waiting, waiting for the satellite tech to actually show up. Please continue to send reports when at the DSS to let us know if the internet is working or not. One additional note, please make sure you have Windows updates turned off while at the DSS, especially if you are running Windows 10. Some if the updates are in the hundreds of megabytes or more and we only have a 12 gigabyte per month allocation before our download rates get cut significantly down. Thanks and keep me posted on the internet status at the DSS. Rick Henderson Apologies in advance. My "smart" phone autocorrect is not my friend.

The ASKC has three telescopes that need a good home. An 8" Celestron C-8 complete with ra drive with slow motion control, tripod, wedge, glass solar filter, poro prism for right side up images, finder scope, and a bunch of other stuff. 10" Meade reflector with massive pier mount with three wheeled legs 6" Edmund reflector with massive pier mount with three wheeled legs The reflectors could be parted out to make a DOB if you didn't want to work with the heavy mount. It took me 8 minutes to assemble each one after I took everything apart for transporting. They will be on cloudy nights, and craigs list next week. If they are not sold they will be at the curb on November 15. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Subject:Oct. 28 - the night at Powell
Message:
It was a cold night for sure, but we still had 76 adults, and 32 kids - 108 folks in all, show up! There were scouts camping out in the park, so they amounted to approximately 40 of the visitors. We did 4 programs - Spooky Nebulas! Thanks to Team Two members, plus David Young and Jason Forst who were on-hand to help out. (David brought pizza bread sticks from Casey's, which he shared.) Jason (our observatory director) was there when I arrived around 5:00, working away as usual. He stayed through the evening as we were a bit short-handed. Interesting side story... Jason was also there Friday night working on the 30", and heard voices in the classroom. He discovered a family there, who thought it was a public night. They were from Paola, had never been there at Powell, and were just astounded at the size of the telescope! Well, Jason invited them to come back last night, and they did. After team members had cleaned up, emptied the trash and swabbed the decks,.. I went into the dome room, and there Jason was. entertaining this very same family who had come back. They were the last visitors, and Jason was giving them their own show! I overheard him say, ". anything if a kid wants to see it.." That is the way to do it, right? Powell will be open to the public again in late April. See you there then! Jackie Beucher Team Two

Okay, I just heard from the organizer for the November 11th Cub Scout group. He's upped the attendance figure to between 80 to 100 Scouts plus adults. I think that means I need more than just one other helper. They want a classroom program, which I can do, and then we probably need both the 30" and the LCT 16" staffed. They will be bringing the Scouts to Powell 25-30 at a time. Please let me know if you can help. Otherwise, I shall pull a Monty Python and the Holy Grail tactic and run away!!!! Thanks.

Subject:Request - Tour of Powell for Cub Scout Den
Message:
Hi, I've been a ASKC member for about 10 years, but don't know the process for requesting a tour of Powell. We have a group of Cub Scouts and their parents (about 12 people) that would like to see Powell and look through the big scope. Is is possible to arrange for a tour on a Friday or Saturday night in November, and what would be the cost? Thank you, Matt 913.706.8066

The fellow called Friday and asked me if it would be ok. I told him a few others had proposed at the observatory and some had even been married there. One time a young lady was very thrilled and started announcing the new engagement to everyone. Everyone present already knew it was going to happen. She called at least a dozen people on her cell phone. Everyone she called already knew. This time I decided not to alert anyone. It worked out nicely that you shared your scope with people Saturday night. It gave him a perfect setting to ask that life changing question. On Oct 30, 2017 9:10 AM, "gdj102356@...

It's the same as using an enhanced-light eyepiece that is basically a night-vision camera in the eyepiece. Several companies make them. Except in this scope, the night-vision camera is built in. So you are not really looking at the sky. You are looking at a tiny LCD screen that has amplified the star light. Warning to your night vision. Being that it is tied to your phone and the world, you can capture images and save them. So its like a telescope with a built-in CCD camera. Would I get one?

Clearly it is a crowd-source funding effort. There seems to be no legal commitment to deliver the product they describe. A little research - I see a lot of stuff on the internet regarding this proposed device - just Google SETI EVScope. I can't imagine how or why the SETI would get involved with this. It seems out of character for that organization. Just my 2 cents. Other opinions welcome. - Dave Hudgins <blockquote> </blockquote>

Hello Bill, Can you explain the issue you are having with your zero image shift-electronic micro-focuser? I previously had an issue where the focuser port lost power due to a burnt up resistor on the main power board. If you plug the focuser into the reticle or 12v out port, does the motor run? Replacing the overheated resistor was an easy fix and I would be happy to help out. Chris Leake 816-349-0264

Subject:Apertura (Zhumell Equivalent) 10" Dobsonian with "Tweaker Package" and Nagler
Message:
Hi, I have a 10" Apertura dobsonian in very good condition (mirror is immaculate, and stored inside an air conditioned and heated home for its entire life) for sale with the tweaker package professionally installed by Optics Mart back in 2014. Black in color. This is the equivalent of the Zhumell for those who are not familiar with Apertura, but upgraded with internal flocking, upgraded secondary alignment knobs and internal bearings, upgraded primary springs, and a "must have" secondary dew heater that I installed from Kendrick. The tweakers package is really nice since it includes beautiful flat black flocking on the interior to increase contrast in the image, along with Bob's Knobs on the secondary for hands-free adjustment of the secondary mirror, upgraded internal bushings in the secondary alignment knobs to eliminate the annoying random movement of the secondary during alignment, upgraded springs on the primary mirror mount, a Telrad finder, and a Kendrick dew heater installed on the secondary (must have item for the DSS). Price for the scope is $490. Original cost with the upgrades was $800. I also have a Televue Nagler 9mm Type 1 with original caps but no box that is the perfect match for this scope for an additional $135. Also included is a Celestron Cheshire collimator which provides accurate collimation for this f/4.9 scope. I am also throwing in a secondary dew heater controller unit for the telescope, that uses pulse width modulation to control the power level to the heater. You supply the wiring and 12V DC power for the controller. $490 for the telescope and all the options, $135 for the Nagler 9mm Type 1. Hoping to find a good home for it. Local pickup only.

Subject:JCCC @ Powell Thu 9 Nov 17 — Report
Message:
Highly successful ($350, ka-ching!) night at Powell on Thursday with Bill Koch’s JCCC class. Huge thanks to Dennis Budd, Rick Henderson, Bill Koch, and Jerel Williams, all of whom endured low temperatures under clearer skies than expected. I joined Dennis, Bill, and Jerel at Lucille’s for a tasty (and rather substantial) dinner beforehand. Objects telescopically observed in order of distance included, but may not have been limited to: · Uranus (ooh-RAH-nus, ooh-RAH-nus, ooh-RAH-nus) · Albireo/ β Cygni · M45/Pleiades · NGC 6633/Ophiuchus Open Cluster · M57/Ring Nebula in Lyra · M71/Sagitta Globular Cluster · M15/Pegasus Globular Cluster · M31/Andromeda Galaxy I borrowed Bill’s laser and pointed out Polaris, Cassiopeia, the Summer Triangle, the Summer Milky Way, Cygnus, the Cygnus Rift, the general directions of the galactic center and south pole, Fomalhaut, the Square of Pegasus, the nucleus of the Andromeda Galaxy, Capella, the Pleiades, and Aldebaran. I will get a check to Alan at the November GM.

Subject:Missing Powell Reports
Message:
There were 26 public team nights scheduled for the 2017 season. Of those 26, I have not been able to find reports for 9 of those nights. That's almost 35% of the reports that are missing. I do apologize if a report was sent in and I missed it. I literally get dozens of emails every day. I just spent the last hour searching my emails, but I get so many that I could have missed some. Can ANYONE provide me with public team night reports for the following dates: 06/03/2017 06/10/2017 07/22/2017 07/29/2017 08/12/2017 08/26/2017 09/09/2017 09/30/2017 10/14/2017 It is the team leaders' responsibility to send in these reports, but I will accept input from anyone who has information. Thank you in advance. This information is very important to our fundraising preparations for moving Powell to Circle Grove. Rick Henderson

I heard from Sue Ketchum today. Jim had open heart surgery on Tuesday. The surgery went well, but he may have to have a pacemaker installed and so will be in the hospital a few more days I know we all are hoping for a good and speedy recovery and will be looking forward to spending more time under the stars with him. I'm the meantime Jim and Sue are in our hearts, thoughts and prayers. Rick Henderson Apologies in advance. My "smart" phone autocorrect is not my friend.

Just heard from Sue. Jim is doing much better and they don't think he'll need a pacemaker. Doctor will be in later today and he might even get discharged today to go home! Both Jim and Sue said thank you for all the well wishes! Rick Henderson Apologies in advance. My "smart" phone autocorrect is not my friend.

Message:
Oumuamua? I had to look it up and still haven't a prayer of pronouncing it. It's a Hawaiian word meaning "a messenger from afar arriving first." Very fitting. The embedded link to the ESO paper will interest some of you. Be sure to watch the video on Spaceweather's page, too. We are not alone, that's certain. There is bound to be a sci-fi story that used this plot. If not, look for the book in a year or two. Mike Stewart From Spaceweather: Interstellar Asteroid "Like Nothing Seen Before" In Oct. 2017, the Pan-STARRS 1 telescope in Hawai'i picked up a faint point of light moving across the sky. At first it appeared to be an ordinary asteroid--but astronomers quickly realized it was something entirely different. The hurtling object, since named "'Oumuamua," came from interstellar space. At the time of its discovery, 'Oumuamua had just swung around the sun. Telescopes around the world swiveled to observe it before it could leave the Solar System. <https://www.eso.org/public/archives/releases/sciencepapers/eso1737/eso1737a .pdf> Findings from those rapid observations were <https://www.nature.com/articles/nature25020> published in today's issue of Nature, and they reveal a very strange object indeed: According to a European Southern Observatory (ESO) <http://www.eso.org/public/news/eso1737/> press release, 'Oumuamua is "like nothing seen before." It is red, made of dense rock or metal, and is shaped roughly like a giant cigar at least 400 meters long. These are the findings of a team of astronomers led by Karen Meech (Institute for Astronomy, Hawai`i, USA) who combined images from the ESO's Very Large Telescope in Chile with other large telescopes. 'Oumuamua varies dramatically in brightness by a factor of ten as it spins on its axis every 7.3 hours. "This unusually large variation in brightness means that the object is highly elongated: about ten times as long as it is wide, with a complex, convoluted shape," says Meech. The asteroid's dark red color is probably caused by cosmic rays irradiating its surface for millions of years in deep space. Cosmic rays have a similar coloring effect on asteroids and comets native to our outer Solar System. Extrapolating 'Oumuamua's trajectory back in time, it seems to come from the direction of the star Vega. However, Vega itself moves and was not in the area when 'Oumuamua was last there ~300,000 years ago. 'Oumuamua may well have been wandering through the Milky Way, unattached to any star system, for hundreds of millions of years before its chance encounter with the Solar System. Researchers estimate that interstellar asteroids similar to 'Oumuamua pass through the inner Solar System about once per year, but they are faint and so have been missed until now.Only recently have survey telescopes such as Pan-STARRS become powerful enough to discover them. "We are continuing to observe this unique object," says team member Olivier Hainaut from the ESO in Garching, Germany. "And now that we have found the first interstellar rock, we are getting ready for the next ones!" Stay tuned. http://spaceweather.com/

Hi to all my stargazing friends. Had Open Heart surgery on the 14th. One bypass and a valve replacement. After 7 days in t e ICU, they finally let me go home. Got here just a few hours ago. Very weak, but glad I'm home. Now I have 2-3 months of rehab to work through. The surgery was a total success and all the medical staff was happy with the results. So, I'm happy, as well. Wont be out under the stars until next year, but already looking forward to it. Keep looking up, Jim On Mon, Nov 20, 2017 at 10:50 AM, rhenderson1 rhenderson1@...

I need some help with dropbox. I want to delete some files ONLY in my dropbox without affecting everyone else in that folder. People in one of the groups I am linked to have uploaded a bunch of totally unnecessary files that are totally useless for anything but filling up space. Anyone familiar with dropbox that can point me in the right direction?. Last year I tried to delete some files from just my folder and wound up deleting the files from everyone's folder. I was able to restore the files but the dropbox restore jumbled the directories. I don't want that to happen again. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

Dropbox is like a shared folder. You cannot add/delete without affecting everyone who the folder is shared with.

If they are in your drive space, you need to get someone else to take the files out of your space to their space. Also if there is a directory structure you have shared, I don't know that you can unshare part of it. That is your visibility to someone elses drive. And if the files are on someone elses dropbox, and shared to you, just ignore them, they should not be out of your space. If they are propagating to your local drive, your dropbox client can be adjusted to ignore specific directories, and not fill your local drive with junk. thanks Jim > > Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@... > <mailto:youngmdavid@...> > > On Wed, Nov 22, 2017 at 1:09 PM, firoz.jokhi@... > <mailto:firoz.jokhi@...> [ASKC] <ASKC@yahoogroups.com > <mailto:ASKC@yahoogroups.com>> wrote: > > Dropbox is like a shared folder.

No crickets here! >>>>>>>>>> Please welcome three new Powell key-holders: Hunter and Mary-Kate Myers and John Fitzgerald! Training is available, either for newbies or old-hands -- simply send an email to powell_od@... to schedule. Please remember that this wonderful observatory is primarily for use by members of ASKC -- the public outreach supports the observatory for YOUR use! Work parties involving physical labor, out of doors, will now always be scheduled for days with miserable weather! On the 18th of November, SIXTEEN (!) volunteers showed up in crummy, windy, rainy weather to assist in digging holes and filling them back in, and supporting those that were doing hard work: Joe Alburty Casey Carlile Mark Flor Larry Herndon Jagat Khalsa Alan Lehman Gil Machin Kathy Machin Ron Roth Melinda Slater Alex Weber Jerel Williams Bill Woods Joe Wright Rita Wright David Young We successfully dug holes for the base of the new mast for the new weather station, and for the protective bollard to the south. Much of the labor of digging was accomplished by a rented power auger, but it could only go so deep -- the rest was dug by hand, mainly by Alex Weber, Mark Flor, Bill Woods, and Larry Herndon. These people deserve a very appreciative "Well Done!" from us all. Of course, empty holes in the ground must be filled, and filled they were, first with 2" heavy-wall pipe manufactured as a base pivot for a tall mast, and then with cement mixed by a wonderful electric mixer -- Thank you, Mark Flor, for bringing that wonderful device! Last Saturday, 25th Nov (a sunny and pleasant day!), the mast was assembled and raised by David Young Mike Stewart Jerel Williams Alan Lehman Melinda Slater (and at least two others that I don't remember names) Alan Lehman is finalizing a couple things for the new weather station -- it will be on-line soon! Pictures of both efforts are elsewhere in this fine publication. I have a quote for the new carpet for the observatory, attempting to schedule an install date, which is complicated by the need for the temperature to be between 50 and 85 degrees for 48 hours before and after installation -- this unfortunately means that we will probably not have new carpet until spring as the dome floor is too cold for correct use of the adhesives. Mirror cleaning will commence in late December, and will include the two dobsonians in the LCT. We have on hand a mirror-cleaning product used by professional observatories (e.g. Keck), and to which I was introduced at AstroCon this year; "First Contact Polymer" from http://www.photoniccleaning.com/default.asp. Using this product should help to lengthen the life of the Ruisinger's mirror by avoiding the inherent wear when cleaning with finger-tips. Contact powell_od@... if you want to be in on the effort! Replacement exterior doors are anticipated to be installed mid-December. The door frames and thresholds and the doors themselves are being replaced on both the class-room and dome doors. Final engineering and planning for upgraded Internet access for the observatory is underway; conversations with city personnel and the ISP have been had, and scheduling is started. As always, there are other tasks waiting on volunteers, such as painting the kitchen, final prep and painting of the ceiling, cleaning the exterior of the Ruisinger, and remodeling the 'technology corner'. I'm still hopeful for four strong backs to spread additional rock around the dome before spring. It'd be terrific if we could replace the over-grown evergreens and dying shrubs around the building -- I'm not a green thumb at all and would welcome advice and assistance in the horticulture area. A note along those lines; the park staff are planning to continue mowing the majority of the observing area – we need a volunteer or three to assist with weekly close mowing and trimming! David Young nearly single-handedly provided all the grounds-keeping this past year. It would be outstanding if someone (some-three?) would step up to ensure we have a nice, well-kept lawn next year.

As the Arby's ad says, "WE HAVE THE MEATS". Marcia is putting the turkey, pulled port and brisket into the crock pots. We will have them and some decorating stuff at the Gramercy Place club house about 5:00 today (Saturday) to start setting up. Feel free to join us and help setup. The voices are back, awesome.

Robynn, I am not a trained astronomer, just an engineer. But I have been an armchair astronomer all my life and have been particularly interested in the life and death of stars.

I have backed up all 530 files in the Yahoo egroup file area to an external hard drive. I intend to cull the drive over the next week and get rid of anything that I think is no longer needed. I will also be making some folders and putting things like the gm and board minutes in their own folders. That will greatly reduce the clutter. The photo area will be next. If you have some cherished photos in there now would be a good time for you to make sure you have a copy for yourself. Sent via Gmail from David Young youngmdavid@...

What is the protocol for logging activities. Example: I'm working with a teacher and her student for a science fair project in radio astronomy. And next week I'm doing a presentation on astronomy at St Michaels High school for their science class. Does the club need to know these activities? Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks Gary Martin

The AM has an outreach award. The MSN site has a section to log your outreach hours. I'd get the outreach stuff from Scott and use those guidelines. On Dec 4, 2017 10:42 PM, "birdtunabear@...

Message:
I am in the process of deleting things that I deem unnecessary from the photo area of the yahoo group. This includes most of the albums I have uploaded as well as a number of empty albums, dog pictures, etc. If you have time you might want to peruse the albums yourself and save any photos you may have uploaded. If you see something that you think should definitely be saved, now is the time to tell me because I intend to do some SERIOUS culling. I intend to create some new albums and move things around. Many of the albums contain photos that should be archived. Mostly projects at the DSS or Powell that include photos that might be useful for locating things in the future.

Subject:Geminids & 3200 Phaethon at Powell Obs 12/13
Message:
Creating a discussion thread for this (possible) event. As of one week out, the long-range forecast for next Wednesday in Louisburg is sunny with a high of 50°F and a low of 29°F, implying clear skies and temperatures in the low 40s Fahrenheit that evening. For mid-December in Kansas, those are nearly the best conditions imaginable, although the forecast west-northwest wind of 14 mph will yield a wind chill of close to freezing. Predicted peak time for the Geminids is 0630 UT on the 14th = 12:30 AM CST, but the radiant point of the shower will be well above the horizon by the end of astronomical twilight at 6:33 PM. The Moon will be a waning crescent, only 11% illuminated, and will not rise until 3:57 AM, so moonlight will not interfere; and in combination with a ZHR of 120, the Geminids should be the best meteor shower of 2017. Due to a prior commitment, I do not expect to arrive at Powell until around 8 PM, but various other keyholders have expressed interest in opening and staffing the observatory that night. Ephemerides and finder charts for 3200 Phaethon are at … https://in-the-sky.org/ephemeris.php?objtxt=A3200 https://in-the-sky.org/ephemeris.php?objtxt=A3200 https://in-the-sky.org/findercharts.php?startday=10&startmonth=12&startyear=2017&duration=1&objtype=0&objtxt=&objs=25877 https://in-the-sky.org/findercharts.php?startday=10&startmonth=12&startyear=2017&duration=1&objtype=0&objtxt=&objs=25877

I reserved the observatory for December 13 but I plan to be sitting outside in a convertible most of the time. If some one wants to babysit the place it can remain unlocked. If not we will need to lock and unlock on demand since I expect public traffic that night. If we leave it open an ASKC member needs to be inside at all times.

I just finished re-reading an article on Pluto in a March 2016 issue of Science magazine. Before I pitch it I thought I'd see if there were any Plutophiles out the that might want it.

*A "ROCK COMET" IS APPROACHING EARTH:* You've heard of comets. But have you ever heard of a *rock* comet? They exist, and a big one is approaching Earth this week. 3200 Phaethon will fly past our planet on Dec. 16th only 10 million km away. Measuring some 5 km in diameter, it is large enough for amateur astronomers to photograph through backyard telescopes. Moreover, this strange object is the parent of the annual Geminid meteor shower, which is also coming this week. Sky watchers can see dozens of Geminids per hour on Dec. 13th and 14th as gravelly bits of the rock comet disintegrate in Earth's upper atmosphere. Visit today's edition of Spaceweather.com <https://spaceweather.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0c5fce34d5ca05f64a13d085d&id=e92a161e64&e=de0cb9fdd7> to find out how to observe the Geminids and their progenitor in the nights ahead. -- Marcia youngrmarcia@...

If you haven't downloaded the latest Stellarium, do so. After setting the location for KC or general area, go to the Configuration menu (wrench) on the lower left of screen. Once there, chose "Plugins" and then "Solar System Editor" from the scroll options to the left. You might want to update some of the objects. There is a setting to do this at each start up. Here you can upload the latest orbital elements (empheris) for the comet/asteroid. You can also set up the display to have meteors randomly at a given rate. There is also a setting to update satellite information. I would make sure you change this from 720 hours between updates to something more weekly. The software will give you a heads-up when one is crossing view by showing the track. This got our attention at Timberline Observatory one night when a bright dot starting going across the screen. Seconds later there was the Iridium overhead. A couple of years ago when trying to find a comet, I found that Stellarium had the object correctly placed when Software Bisque's TheSky was more than 12 clock hours off and it wasn't a time setting issue with the PC. I plan to be out watching for shooters tomorrow night. Good luck. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

After setting the location for KC or general area, go to the Configuration menu (wrench) on the lower left of screen. Once there, chose "Plugins" and then "Solar System Editor" from the scroll options to the left. You might want to update some of the objects. There is a setting to do this at each start up. Here you can upload the latest orbital elements (empheris) for the comet/asteroid. You can also set up the display to have meteors randomly at a given rate. There is also a setting to update satellite information. I would make sure you change this from 720 hours between updates to something more weekly. The software will give you a heads-up when one is crossing view by showing the track. This got our attention at Timberline Observatory one night when a bright dot starting going across the screen. Seconds later there was the Iridium overhead. A couple of years ago when trying to find a comet, I found that Stellarium had the object correctly placed when Software Bisque's TheSky was more than 12 clock hours off and it wasn't a time setting issue with the PC. I plan to be out watching for shooters tomorrow night. Good luck. Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ Joseph S.

Myself and three others were observing under mag 6.2+ skies last night for the meteor shower and it was quite the show. Here are some results for when I kept count: 2310-2338 - 24 meteors 0030-0100 - 43 meteors 0136-0207 - 57 meteors Throughout the night I counted well over 200, seeing my first one about 15 seconds after getting out of my car at 1920, from the direction of Gemini, but questionable that early. As the radiant got higher, it looked as if all of the meteors we were seeing were indeed Geminids, but it's quite possible a few weren't. At one time in the later hours, I counted 20 in a 5 minute span! Several really nice bolides were seen, including a few that appeared to break apart, and some that left nice trails. When Gemini was nearly overhead, we were seeing meteors in all directions, making it difficult to get a good count for the rate per hour. Up until we left at 0345, even with a 20% rising moon, we were still easily seeing more than one per minute! The only negative was the wind, steady at 10 mph and gusting, but it was well worth it. Hoping for good weather for others tonight!

Steve King and I hung out south of Powell last night and there were about 20-30 other folks scattered around other areas of the field. Temp got down into the high 30s and there was about a 3-5 mph wind from the northwest shifting to the north. Chilly enough, but we had blankets and sleeping bags and parked the cars to make a wind block. Add to that some space music, coffee and snacks and we were ready for the night. From 19:15 to 00:30 we counted 252 meteors with 234 of them Geminids and 18 sporadics. They were pretty evenly spaced after 22:00 coming in at about 60 per hour. We didn't see any bolides (exploding meteors), however I'd say about 20% of the Geminids were either fireballs or very close in brightness. We also noticed they would frequently come in waves. There'd be several minutes where we wouldn't see any and then in the next 3-4 minutes we'd see several. Some almost looked like they would exactly follow the previous one in trajectory. Could have been our imagination, but it was fun. Good night. Only my sleepiness did me in about 00:30 and I called it a night.

Message:
One source I saw says that the longest lunar month in this century- (2001-2100) starts with the new moon today. Measuring from Dec 18 new moon to the next new moon 29 days 19 hours and 47 minutes. That is using a synodic month - http://astropixels.com/ephemeris/moon/synodicmonth2001.html Super moon Brightness? Angular diameter? The web site at http://curtrenz.com/moon17.html shows the Jan. 02, 2018 full moon as having the third largest angular diameter in the 2015-2034 timeframe, and the two January 2018 full moons as in the top ten for brightness in that 20 year period. Apparently angular size is not the only factor in brightness- the distance to the sun and nearness to the ecliptic are also factors. Who knew it would be that complicated! -- Kathy Machin

Subject:Announcing a new online citizen science effort to study the 2017 total solar eclipse
Message:
Not sure if this has been shared with our group, so I'm doing it! Several of our members were involved in this project,.. Like David Young and Joe Wright. And the project people are asking for our help. Jackie Beucher ________________________ Dear Colleagues, The Eclipse Megamovie Project, a first-of-its-kind citizen science effort that brought together thousands of volunteers across the United States to capture the August 2017 total solar eclipse, received over 60,000 images! We've been pouring through them and thinking about all the different ways we can take this project to the next level. As a result, we've launched a brand new online citizen science project that is open to anyone, anywhere in the world with an Internet connection to get involved in our on-going scientific investigation. Curious? We hope so! Here's how you can participate: Megamovie Maestros I on Zooniverse In this first of multiple Zooniverse projects yet to come, you will help us determine what our volunteers actually captured by identifying eclipse phases and other phenomenon of interest. You will be shown images one at a time from the Eclipse Megamovie image database. For each image, we will ask you what you see. A tutorial and help link make choosing your answers fairly simple. You can also "Talk" to discuss the images in more detail with our team and other project participants. Plus it's a great way to relive the eclipse and see some stunning eclipse imagery, thanks to our oh-so-talented volunteer photographers! You will even occasionally see a photo of our volunteers themselves (if they uploaded any selfies), which helps make the project fun to do too. To learn more and get started, go to http://bit.ly/MegamovieMaestros1 and be sure to share this link with your friends, family, and colleagues!

Subject:SpaceX Iridium mission tonight
Message:
SpaceX caused quite a lightshow tonight. I only heard about it, didn't go out to look as it was gone by the time I heard about it. Anyway, one thing that makes it a bit of interest here, is that there have been 40 Iridium satellites deployed in 2017. This is the mission video. I won't post any of the local coverage links, but you may have seen it on the national news, since it was quite spectacular, about 45 min after sunset, well lit. Boost phase, second stage ignition, and payload fairing separation was all very visible. https://spaceflightnow.com/2017/12/22/falcon-9-iridium-next-4-mission-status-center/ Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year to all of the ASKC folks. thanks Jim and Shirley Stephens.

Message:
Hi Folks, Heads up for a near-Earth binocular comet that is VERY nicely placed high in the evening sky Jan 4 thru 12+ before Moon-rise. About mag 9. Imagers: I notice that Jan 5 around 10PM the comet is zooming past big galaxy IC 342. It will be within 1 degree field I believe per my SkyMap Pro program. (BTW - for Christmas, I got myself a new ATIK Infinity CCD camera and William Optics 81mm f/4.7 Apo refractor. Fun, fun!).

Subject:Need a couple of Ruisinger 30" Operators for New Member Event at Powell
Message:
I am sponsoring a new member night for Friday, January 12. It is a planned event like December's event; invitation only. I will be sponsoring some more. But! For this one I need a couple of volunteer telescope operators for the 30" Ruisinger. I have responsibility for opening and closing so the volunteer operators will just get to do the fun stuff. All I ask is a little pre-work on an observing plan so we maximize time at the eye piece. I will open at 6:00 for a 7:00 start time. I will also be in charge of cancellation and reschedule in case of weather. We have about 20 people, all of them joined in 2017, either with Individual or Family memberships (15 memberships total). There are some Seniors memberships, too. I've kept the numbers down to enhance the experience. Seemed to work okay in December. Right now I have four volunteers to help me keep the group engaged in the classroom so we don't overload the dome. Last time we tried to keep the number of viewers in the dome to 5 (plus or minus) at a time to enhance the viewing experience and make life as easy as possible for the operators. I'm currently thinking three working the dome with one of the three rotating in and out for a warming period. Weather looks to be a little chilly. I'll warn the attendees to dress for frigid weather.

The problem word there is "predicted". ISON was predicted to be the brightest comet of the century.

Has anyone tried Celestron's EclipSmart binoculars? I'm curious what you think of them. I noticed that stores are clearing them out and I'm thinking of getting one or two. Optics Planet is selling them for $39 and B&H Photo at $42; well below the $70 price they were going for pre-total eclipse. Thanks, Glen
