We had our sites set to outer space in the garden last night and it did not disappoint. Enthusiasts gathered and were able to see our moon clearly and brightly, Saturn and its rings, Jupiter and 3 of its moons, a large beautiful Perseid meteor and the amazing m13 globular cluster of several hundred thousands of stars. A lucky few also caught a glimpse of the barn owls in the garden all while enjoying a peaceful night listening to the crickets and sounds of nature. A huge thanks to John Figoski for sharing his amazing knowledge and telescope (pictured setting it up) with all of us!
