helped Sharmin (Don Mills)

I helped new member and NOVA alumni Sharmin get going with visual observing. She booked the RASC Toronto Centre 8" Dobsonian, which I had on loan. So, I transferred it directly from my garage to her living room. I helped her get oriented.



She has a great little balcony facing due east. It will be excellent for morning planets.

We viewed Vega, the Double-Double, and Albireo. We consider some clusters. M13 will be good but it was a little too high, as the evening wore on, for us to spot.
