190 in person and 60 online. Great turnout for a winter event. Elias gave a great presentation and explanation of faster-than-light travel.
Clear conditions and the "planet parade" meant good observing outside. We had 2 dobsonians and 2 electronic scopes looking at
Jupiter, Mars, M42, and M31. Great volunteers and great night overall.
