Stargazers Week 2001
Sunday 22nd July

Evening Images

Before going out into the night, house guests viewed a slide show, "The Solar System - A Walk in Our Backyard."

"Wow... this is out of this world!" Another happy customer at O'Reilly's Guesthouse.
Mars was the biggest attraction of course, the guests making the journey to the top of the ladder for great views of the Red Planet.
There was always quite a lineup, other attractions were the mandatory "Great globular clusters, supernova remnants, and fluorescing gas clouds."
Tim O'Reilly, one of the family members who runs the Guesthouse, takes his turn at the eyepiece. It's not true that he was only looking for the "Hamburger Galaxy"... dinner was only a few hours ago.
