Observation!

There was a really great stargaze on Saturday night. We were able to see so many constellations, a couple satellites including the ISS, some M objects, and three planets through a telescope! Mars was very cooperative; we could even see the ice cap on it. Very cool. We then viewed Jupiter and its four Galilean moons, and Saturn. We saw the Sombrero Galaxy through the telescope as well-- very small, but just amazing when you think about how far away it is. It was a really fun stargaze, and I hope we'll be able to squeeze in another this year. :)
