    Another nice night at the Tulsa Astronomy Club observatory, warm with some wind. Showed a small crowd of teens and their teacher Amazonas (28393) as it passed by M42, at 11 mag. Explained geosats, and also why I knew to look 4 minutes earlier than last night. One kid said he felt dizzy watching it, as he could understand the whole globe was turning under him. Almost all objects seen last night were new to me, then followed with several new DSO's.
