Too many clouds in the forecast to have any fun tonight at the Westport Observatory! The WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party is cancelled for 4/22 — we're keeping our volunteers cozy at home until the skies cooperate. We hope to see you under the stars next week! http://www.was-ct.org/#StarParty #Astronomy #WAS #Stargazing #NightSky #ClearSkies #Connecticut #WestportObservatory #Cancelled #WestportCT

@artologica Absolutely brilliant!

Blue Origin is seeking U.S. Federal Communications Commission approval to operate a 51,600-satellite "orbital data center" network. Today, the Center for Space Environmentalism officially filed our opposition to its application.We're demanding a rigorous environmental review to assess collision risks and the severe threat to our shared night sky before any approval is granted.

@mespique we set the lasers to stun, don't worry
