Subject: [UVAA] Messier Marathon Friday and Saturday

SLAS is having its annual Messier Marathon at SPOC this coming Friday and
Saturday nights.

We'll be using the Ealing for the marathon.  The refractor is not the best for
deep sky (it's a 200 mm f/16.8) so we'll probably use it for the planets  If you
have never seen Jupiter and Saturn (especially Saturn) through a largish
refractor this is your chance.

This is not a public event but members of other clubs are welcome to attend.

Lots of room on the grounds around the observatory for portable scopes.

Patrick
