I was off Island (Chris) but Nick went down as usual. Inspite of the hazy hot weather good crowd turned up many of them visitors to the Island and a good range of ages too
A successful but dry evening!

Sunday 6th July - Pedros
A Hot Muggy meeting with muggy cloud. Inspite of this we observed Saturn and Jupiter as well as our favorites for this time of the year- the Jewel box and Omega Centauri. Alpha Centauri also resolved well into its apparent binary system.
The Southern Cross was not easy to resolve and it also took us a while to see the Jewel Box.
Last month was definitely the better month to observe this constellation, but we have a teapot to look forward too!!
We also had a quick look at Scorpio but the heat and humidity persuaded us for a finish at Durty Reids
