The Occultation of a 9.4 Star by Asteroid Saskia

Mar 17, 2017

This is one of the brightest occultations of a high rank star this year, so despite interferring with weekend spring break plans, I decided to go for it. The path crossed the Santa Cruz Mtns and up through the south bay. Cabrillo Observatory was outside the path, requiring a drive.
