Wow, the sky is clearer today than it has been since I got here! I hope it stays this way. SKY, WTF IS GOING ON?

Please stay clear all throughout the day, and particularly throughout the night! Let Gainesville not be Rainesville again. And you know, allow me to stargaze. It's not even hazy! SKY STAY THIS WAY PLZ

cold front passed thru, pushing the humidity out :)

Yes but usually even when there's a cold front, there's usually some clouds left over. I'm very well aware of how meteorology works. I suppose this is just an indicator that Fall is settling in.

looking4realdeal

yup. especially in northern Florida. had you been in south Florida, it would still be hazy and poor stargazing conditions. that always did irritate me. :)

At least Big Pine Key is a designated dark sky location.

looking4realdeal

true. I never been there. I would love to go out to Arizona when they have the star parties. that would be awesome !!

You should invest in going to the Atacama one day. So beautiful! That's where ALMA is. Also you should visit me here in Gainesville.

looking4realdeal

I will definitely out that on my list of things to do :) I would love to visit you in Gainesville sometime :) that would be lots of fun :)

*put....jeez....I can't spell this morning. lol

TetrisGuy · 26-30, M

Yup :V

maybe we could take a trip out to Arizona together in the future and do some star gazing ? go check out SETI while out there too :)

TetrisGuy · 26-30, M

Hahaha perhaps :D I've been to Sedona, but I didn't get the chance to stargaze there. Sedona's pretty beautiful. But we should go to a star park :V

works for me :) I want to save up $$ and get a really good reflector or possibly a newtonian scope to take out there :)

TetrisGuy · 26-30, M

I wish I had a scope xD Hopefully my dad will you know, actually TRUST me, and get me a portable one one of these days -3-

by the time he gets around to it, you'll probably be operating one of the largest ground telescopes in the world. :)

TetrisGuy · 26-30, M

x'DDDD hahahaha that seems to be what's happening. Been asking him for one since I was 9, or maybe even before. But he recently started actually looking into them xD

looking4realdeal

interesting :) he'll come up with an excuse not to get one tho. he will say something like "it's too expensive" or "how will you take this with you when you want to see the stars?" some stupid BS. :p

My family is pretty loaded. Price won't be the problem. It's going to be the second one for sure. To be more concise, he'll say "you'll break it." For fuck's sake he didn't let me take my *binoculars* let alone a telescope -.-
