Stars over Princeton

Friday night, Val and I observed stars over Princeton at the AAAP Simpson Observatory. Through the telescopes, among others, we saw Vega (the brightest star that evening), the Hercules Cluster, and several twin stars. We also saw Jupiter and a couple man made satellites move across the sky. The Amateur Astronomers Association of Princeton offers public viewing through their telescopes Friday nights between April and October, weather permitting. Go to the link earlier in this paragraph for more info. Or, if you find yourself in the Princeton area and don't have this page in front of you, all you have to remember is to Google "Princeton Directory". You will find a link to the AAAP site on the Clubs and Organizations page.
