12-24-2021 TSS Visual Report of the Day.

"Astronomy Report 11-15-21 – The Mother-in-law’s Bortle 7 Backyard"

Our Christmas Eve featured report is from chris_g (Chris) who spent some time outside with binoculars on the night of the 15th. As he mentions, he is mostly interested in AP but observes once in awhile. The perfect thing for a casual evening is a good pair of binoculars. In his case, this was a pair of 10x42's. While the moon was almost full (offering washed out views) but also he was able to observe Venus and Jupiter and its moons. Toward the end of the session he found the Andromeda galaxy. Fortunately he was able to spend some time with his grand nephew who seems to have picked up the astronomy bug. Congratulations Chris on winning the TSS VROD for the day!
