Yes, that was me with the eyepice, good view of Jupiter, eh? --- Jim Gibson <jimgibson00@yahoo.com> wrote:
David The Pit'nPole does get better. We had high serous clouds that brightens the sky and reduces contrast.
Rich Tenney reported that the sky's cleared up and got better after most of us left.
Other places get better still as far as darker skys.
Early on the skys were maybe 5 - 6 out of 10. Later on they may have gotten 7/10. With SLC and Provo to the East and the Depot to the North it doesn't get much better than 7/10. Depending on where you live, the Gravel Pit could be closer and it does get darker skys.
David, wasn't that you who had the Zeiss microscope eyepieces?

Thanks

Those who were at the Pit'nPole on saturday night and wondered if the bright object passing overhead was the Space Station, it most likely was.
