Thank you for attending our December 2013 HAS meeting and for supporting the bylaws amendment and the Articles of Incorporation amendment necessary to assure the (property) tax-exempt status for the observatory site in Colorado County. Your support assures that all of the membership dues will be used to support programs and services for you.

The newest professor Comet report is now ready for the Autumn 2013 in the month of October with very little to report in terms of the diversity of comets for visual observation with the exception of three minor planetary bodies: C/2012 SI (ISON), C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy), and 2P/Encke.
The newest comet report is ready for Autumn 2013 which encompasses the whole month of October concentrating on the latest information of three comets: C/2012 S1 (ISON), C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy), and 2P/Encke. No comet report for the month of September was available due to the lack of observable comets either too faint for naked eye observations, lost in the daytime glare, or visible only in the skies of the southern hemisphere.
