Observation One

Date: 9/28/13
Time: 8:00-10:00 PM
Tools used: Naked eye observations
I could easily see the constellations of Scorpius and Sagittarius, and could identify their brightest stars. Using these constellations I managed to find the rest of the Summer Triangle, and identified Cygnus, Lyra, and Altair. The Milky Way was also visible. Using a compass, I identified Polaris, and a small piece of Draco.
