I'll be viewing it with a telescope with sun shield on it. :cool:

If it isn't all clouded up like the last week..... :(
 
wish i had a nice scope!! have been wanting to buy one since my son was born, i remember as a kid i always wanted one but my folks didnt have enough $$ always was amazed of what was up there and doing a huge project in grade school about Buzz Aldrin didnt help my fever for the stars! Love the stars, makes you wonder wtf is out there and are we really alone?? Huge planets being pulled by a hydrogen/helium explosion and that is part of how life started in this planet cool!
 
Crappy overcast here.
 
Nice and sunny here tomorrow. I have a nice computer controlled Meade telescope. I have seen the moons of Jupiter and looked at the other planets as well. I still haven't figured the auto tracking feature yet. It is still fun for me and the kids. Of coarse I am still a kid at heart.
 
Tada! the clouds made a hole for me...lol
