Greetings from Palmia Observatory
In the June 6 blog post we asked if anyone was going to visit the US east coast to see the annular solar eclipse on June 10?

Not going to measure Mercury retrograde motion now; AAS 238th Meeting; Emily Levesque on Betelgeuse, The Last Stargazers and more; What are TZO's?
Greetings from Palmia Observatory
Well this week we elected not to travel back to the US east coast in an attempt to see the upcoming June 10 solar annular eclipse. We also discovered that it was going to be nearly impossible to measure the retrograde motion of Mercury.

Darn clouds! Hmm, is it worth traveling to see the June 10 annular solar eclipse? Dark Energy Survey Data Release with Dr. Becky; Doing Iceland homework with Einstok White Ale

Well, we are still trying to get some measurements of the position of Mercury to show its retrograde motion, but the clouds are not helping.

Well the Heavens-Above prediction for the latest batch of Starlink satellites was for magnitude 2 visibility for May 30, but our old nemesis, the clouds turned the blue skies to black.
