The clouds called dibs on the sky tonight, 4/15... Our observatory will be socked in, so the stars are taking a well-deserved night off! No worries — the universe will still be there next week. Come find us at our next WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party! was-ct.org #Astronomy #StarParty #Westport #Connecticut #Stargazing #WAS #NightSky #CloudedOut #AmateurAstronomy #WestportObservatory

yo fedi space gazers. i kinda need some recommendations on a good telescope. i'm looking for a reflector telescope, preferably with a tripod and descend magnification to do planetary, cluster, close-by galaxy and nebula observations. maybe with an option to add a camera adapter to it. not to expensive nor too cheap, like good price quality ratio. it should also be somewhat portable, since i plan to take it with me to the mountain cottage ​:boost_appreciated:#askfedi #fedipower #stargazing #telescopes #hobbyastronomy

🌥️ Star Party Update – March 4th The Westport Observatory is socked in with clouds again tonight, so we're calling off this week's WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party. Mother Nature had other plans! We hope the skies cooperate next week — clear skies and great views are worth the wait. See you next Wednesday! https://was-ct.org/ #WestportObservatory #WAS #StarParty #Astronomy #CloudedOut #ClearSkies #Stargazing #AmateurAstronomy #WestportCT #WeeklyStarParty

Six planets to be visible together in the evening sky, creating what is often called a planetary parade. Seven, if you include looking at the one you're standing on https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g3l0yzyxdo?utm_source=fark&utm_medium=website&utm_content=link&utm_campaign=fark&ICID=ref_fark #stem #science #space #stargazing #leisure #cool

This Week’s Sky at a Glance (Feb 20–March 1) Forecast for us in New England: mostly “meh.” Clouds rule the week, but if you catch a break, look up. Jupiter is blazing high after sunset. Saturn lingers low in the dawn. Orion dominates the evening with Taurus and the Pleiades nearby. Late winter skies are prime deep-sky season—grab it if you can. 👉 https://skyandtelescope.org/astronomy-news/observing-news/this-weeks-sky-at-a-glance-february-20-march-1/ #Astronomy #NightSky #Jupiter #SkyandTelescope #Saturn #Orion #WestportObservatory #Stargazing
