Grab a seat for the Celestial Lights show!
By the way, I was at the observatory tonight and grabbed about an hour and forty minutes of exposure of Messier 101, the Pinwhell galaxy. I'll post it when I finish processing it. Guiding was nearly perfect, and atmospheric conditions were very good so hopefully it came out very well.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
