All right, Greg, good to find business there. We do have some astrophotographers on here as well. You may want to pick their brains every now and then, but lots of different interests across the board. I'm kind of a generalist. I kind of like cosmology and stuff like that, so we're going to talk a little bit about it. I've got an interesting talk in just a minute there. Welcome to the Colorado Astronomy Net. This is KI0AR Net Control for the Colorado Astronomy Net. We're running a little behind schedule, so I'll try to speed this up a little bit. I'm going to go ahead and get into the bulletins for this evening. Anyone else out there that wishes to check in, if you have NetLogger, you can check in via NetLogger. You can also send me an email to KI0AR at KI0AR.com or on YouTube and check in via YouTube for the Colorado Astronomy Net there. Right now, I'm going to go ahead and start off with the bulletins. I always like to start off with ISS passes. For those of you who are interested in ISS passes, you may want to check out this particular website www.heavens-above.com. That's www.heavens-above.com. I'll go over on the YouTube channel so you can see what it looks like for ISS passes. What I like about this website, it gives you the times of the pass, where it's going to go, where it starts off, and how high it's going to get. One thing I like about this particular application is when I do click on the date of my particular passage of interest, and it pulls up a nice 8.5 by 11 star chart. I can see what particular constellations or where it is in the sky and the timings along with it along its path. I can print that out on a nice 8.5 by 11 sheet of paper. It's real handy for those of us that want something big to read as opposed to trying to look at a small iPhone or even an iPad or something like that unless you have one of the bigger iPads or something like that. But on a sheet of paper it's easy to print out and you can take a look and see where that pass is over.
