Solar for Madison Chili Cook-off 2014-10-04

4 October, 2014 (21:20) | Events, Outreach | By: tramakers

Our new outreach members Dan and Linda Thoman were our host for CEA’s Solar event at the Madison Chili Cook-off on Saturday. Almost 450 individulas did visit the cook-off not knowing that they would learn about the relative sizes and distances in the Solar system, and have a chance to look at the Sun showing some very nice features. A pyramid prom and hedgerow prom were visible as well as a nice filament. Some very interested people might show up at our next meeting and a few said they would visit the Hard Labor evening event. Thanks to Dan, Linda, Frank and Theo for making this a very favorite station at the Event.
