Friends and Colleagues!!!
The UTC Minor Maintenance Crew (Mr. Steve Smith and Mr. Mike Headlee)
have done an excellent job of repairing and remodeling the UTC Jones
Observatory. It has been a long time since it looked this good. We are
having a grand re-opening Sunday, January 18. Come and see what two
professional craftsmen can do.
Also,Saturn should be spectacular this winter. On New Years Eve, it was the
closest to Earth it had been in 30 years. More importantly, the rings are
tilted at a very favorable angle. We should be getting some beautiful views
of Saturn on these clear, cold nights.
Come join us.
