"And, Mrs. Miller, who, like every wife and mother, could do at least three different things at the same time, went back to reading her book and sewing buttons on a shirt." - Danny Dunn and the Homework Machine (1958)

Naperville Astronomers Club
While Charlie was at a concert, Sam and I got to check out the night sky with some pretty powerful telescopes, courtesy of the Naperville Astronomical Association~
They offer free star-gazing to groups. They have a small plot of land they use at one of the Naperville water reclamation plants. The folks that came out were incredibly helpful and generous with their extensive knowledge~
The center of the universe~
There were a couple of different telescopes~
Even though it was cloudy most of the night, when we were patient, we did get some clear views of the moon and Jupiter~
