CBSAP at Nubble Lighthouse in York Maine. July 12

Post by James0057 »

Wow this was a great outreach for the time Anita & I were there how could it not be ..right :). Folks started to gather around as soon as the tripod came out. Just Awesome was the backdrop as we did this outreach. People at this spot took time at the eyepiece to take in the detail. The couple with 4 kids actually had a scope she told me they had looked at Saturn last night. Her husband kept returning to both the WL & HA . Stephen one of their daughter did have a interest in math & science, their son liked the HA scope. I told her husband he was a good candidate for CBSAP . Notice the diver was still wet we did give him a pair of the CBSAP Glasses. Just SUNTASTIC !!! Thanks for looking comments welcomed ans as always Clear Skies...thanks again to my wife for all her help as teacher, pic taker , Glasses Handler , Heliosphere & Spectroscope demonstrater..
