Postponed :(

Unfortunately we have to postpone our star party tonight (and tomorrow night) due to bad weather.  We really appreciate everyone who volunteered and will reschedule this one for after the first of the year.

Happy Holidays and Clear Skies to all :)

For the next several weeks you can. Tyler Junior College has one of the largest meteors of its kind on display, and for a few dollars you can experience something not of this world.
