Notes:

September is the king of months for astronomy, especially here in Maine. It gets dark at a reasonble hour - not too late and not too early - and we often get comfortable low-humidity evenings. The Milky Way and all of its cool objects are well-placed in the sky. And finally, September historically has the most number of cloud-free nights of any month, followed closely by early to mid-October.


Hope to see you there!
