Wow ! Let's keep up to date on this and would appreciate all your knowledge and comments on the subject ... Thank You Rose.

Thank you for that, I'll be looking. NASA sent a probe to blow up a comet on the fourth of July. We MIGHT be able to see the comet. Here's some more info.

Ooooh, all this cool stuff. And I thought seeing the Thunderbirds fly around on Sunday was a big deal. :)

ok cool we have a huge tele~ its a bear to haul in and out but its so cool to see the sky! have seen Jupiter really good!!!!!

How cool is that!!! I'll be watching for sure. Thanks for the information. I'm marking it on my calendar.

Thank you Rose for the heads-up. My Questar has an adapter for the 35mm Olympus but not digi-cam. I will post the best I get. Waiting for NASA results of blasting a comet. And Discovery's liftoff, uneventful hopefully.

Your all welcome glad to find others that think this stuff is cool..... My family just thinks I am wierd or should I say knows I am LOL. Will keep you posted if I find any more info. Going to Mobi's site now.

Help! A friend sent me an email about this, then other people told me it happened two or three years ago. If it still out there for this year I WANT TO SEE IT!!!! Has it already happened or is it still coming?

tgif, I was just wondering the same thing. I got that same email and then I was told this happened a couple of years ago. Maybe we should check out snopes.com.

Hope this link works:

Thanks mgh
Your link worked, I got the same e-mail. Boy I wish people would check things that they forward a little closer. One less event happening in Aug. Still keeping our fingers crossed that we'll see a shuttle launch this month now that we live in central Fl.

Thanks all I did some research this weekend and found the same thing. I should know better then to post something before I investigate sorry. The only reason I didn't is the friend that it came from is very into stargazing boy am I ever going to give her a hard time. Sorry for the misinformation.

Sandy,
That's okay, anyone can make a mistake. Maybe I will remember to look in Oct, since sorta close then and view size will be 80% of the Aug 2003 view. ~ Suzi :)
