Meteorite List Archives for [meteorite-list] Request for astronomers

Folks,

Any astronomers here know of a group or individuals that can setup 3 or 4 
telescopes for an event in Arizona on October 27th?

Please feel free to forward the following to any potential participants:

------------------------

Within our small industry, we are blessed to have some extremely passionate 
people who take the science and the adventure, and teach children and adults 
in our communities to look outside the world around them and learn about 
space. We want them to look at the sky and think about what could be out 
there.

Unfortunately, our industry suffered a major loss this past year with the 
passing of Dave Gheesling. Dave was extremely passionate about outreach and 
spent a great deal of his free time volunteering with different groups to 
bring his meteorites and share about the worlds beyond ours.

You can learn a bit about him here:

On Wednesday evening, October 27, 2021, we will be hosting Dave?s 
Celebration of Life at the JW Marriott, Desert Ridge resort. Our hope was to 
have someone set up a telescope or two for guests to look out at space and 
enjoy the same celestial bodies that Dave did. We hope that even in his 
death he can inspire other people to love the world beyond us.
