Save Our Community was founded in the movement to resist Wal-Mart's development in Rosemead, California. Now, it has become a general site for news, information, gossip, talk, and blogging about Rosemead. We also have stories about South San Gabriel, San Gabriel, Montebello, and occasionally about Pico Rivera, El Monte, South El Monte, Alhambra, Temple City, and other nearby communities. Your host is Todd. If you want a blog just sign up, get approved, and start writing. Good posts will be moved onto the home page.
Monrovia Sidewalk Astronomy, Sat, Oct. 11
From dusk until about 9:30pm, Old Town Astronomers will be at the corner of Myrtle and Lime in Old Town Monrovia. The moon and Jupiter will be visible during the entire session (although Jupiter may drop below the buildings near the end of our session). Venus may be briefly visible shortly after dusk.
Venus is bright and low in the west-southwest at dusk. It'll be the brightest thing in the night sky after the moon. Jupiter is not quite as bright, and will be just west of south at dusk.
Sidewalk Astronomy, Saturday, November 8, 5pm?
With the end of daylight savings, it's going to be getting dark pretty early. We'll probably try to set up by around 5pm. Early in the evening, there may be a shot at viewing Venus, low in the southwest.
Jupiter will be higher and almost due south.
Depending on the tempterature and the foot traffic, we may be there as last as 9pm or so.
