[ATMoB-discuss] RE:Globe @ Night data

[Bern Kosicki]

Kelly,

 From my backyard in Acton at about 9PM I also saw about Mag 3 due to thin 
clouds.  The sky was very bright.  There are no lights visible from my yard 
(except from the house windows).

The best I've seen for Orion from here is nearly Mag 5, when the Orion 
Nebula is visible naked eye.  I noted both in the web site.
