Dark Skies and Dark Energy Converge at a West Texas Star Party - New York Times

[David Stein]

There's an article in the New York Times this morning about the McDonald Observatory in Texas and their star parties.  Here's a free link to the article that bypasses their paywall for anyone interested:

At our own (much more modest) observatory we will be having our own public star party Saturday night, I hope to see many of you there!

Clear skies,

David
