VSP 14

The weather finally cooperated to allow for another star party and despite a computer crash for me right at the end it was a successful event!

We were able to show a lot of objects including Mars, M42, M43, M45, Horsehead Nebula, Flame Nebula, M31, M33, Flaming Star, Cone Nebula and possibly others that have escaped my memory.
