Annual St. George trip
by Dunn, David 21 Jan '15

OAS is going to St. George to do some observing and take in some warmth. We will be observing Feb 20 and 21 and look forward to hooking up with anyone that wants to observe with us. Unless someone has better sites so suggest, we will plan to use the Virgin site as the primary and the Little Black Mountain Petroglyph parking as the secondary site if it is too windy in Virgin. Please let me know if you plan to come so I can make sure that we hook up. Thanks, David Dunn 801-589-8474

SLAS Jan 21
by Joan Carman 21 Jan '15

21 Jan '15

Tonight in Room 105 of the Warnock Engineering Building Von Del Chamberlain will be speaking by phone bridge (he has already sent the slides) at the SLAS general meeting. The title of his presentation is "Stellar Icons from Native America." As many of you may know, Von Del is the former director of the Hansen Planetarium and has made a life long investigation of Native Indian Skylore. This may be the last opportunity any of you have to hear from this learned man. Please note, you must get a parking permit for $2 for the entire evening (after 4:00), but you need to register your vehicle with Campus Commuter Services first. (University of Utah) It's not hard, to do, just a little effort, but better than a parking ticket.

Spring is close!
by Chuck Hards 21 Jan '15

21 Jan '15

Only 5-1/2 weeks until March! I saw Antares this morning for the first time this year, surprisingly high above the mountains before morning twilight. Saturn is just about high enough now for the good views to start. Saturn is going to be in the southern part of the ecliptic for quite a while, so the farther south you live, the higher in the sky it will be.

With the holidays just about behind us, I've been thinking about a meeting of the Liver & Onions Subcommittee sometime in January. I'm thinking of either Saturday the 17th, or Saturday the 24th. Post your preference, and we'll go with the majority. Thanks!

Teflon

I just looked and sheet teflon is going for about $35 per square foot for the 1/8" thick stuff. Just a point of information. I am still looking for an offer. You may be surprised at what I will take. The stuff has been in my basement a LONG time.
