What a neat graphic. I wish Prince William County had a public viewing area for astronomy events. We also have the Leonid Meteor Shower coming up on November 18. It isn’t predicted to be a good show. People used to gather at night out on Sudley Road right past the Stone House to do their skywatching. Then the Battlefield got all prissy and closed in the area, making it no longer a picnic area.

Silver Lake could also be used as a celestial observation point. The last time I talked to anyone about it, there wre all sorts of regulations and costs. Does anyone have any ideas for a cost effective spot for looking at the night sky?
