This evening, I will be set up at Irwin Park in Homewood (obviously) with a 4.5" Dobsonian telescope. We will be looking at Saturn and its ring system. If it gets dark enough, we will also be able to spot Titan, Saturn's largest moon. Mars will be visible, but is not as striking through the telescope. The craters of our Moon, shadowing, eclipsing by Earth, etc. will also be visible.
I intend to be set up from 9PM-10PM (weather permitting). Look for the only telescope and the Science Guy.
