The Cosmic Pursuits Newsletter - February 2023
Hello ...
Here's your Cosmic Pursuits newsletter for February 2023
1. It's not a spectacular comet, but the little green
fuzzball of Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) is worth a look. You'll need binoculars and you'll need to be far enough north to see the Little Dipper. Bob King at Sky & Telescope has all the details...
3. Early-bird registration is now on for our annual 'Fundamentals of Stargazing' online
astronomy course. If you're receiving this email, you can register for the course now until Feb. 28, 2023. A general announcement for the course will go out mid-month. Learn more about the course here...
4. If you're out under dark and moonless sky this month, grab some optics and see if you can spot the faint but rewarding Merope Nebula tangled in the bright stars of the Pleiades.
"Whoever it was who searched the heavens with a telescope and found no
God would not have found the human mind if he had searched the brain with a microscope." - George Santayana
