Doing live outreach event from Atlanta to the Burdekin in Queensland Australia

Post by solarchat »

Rob Black and I are doing a joint outreach event live on Google+ right now live. He has scopes setup on the beach in Townsville and I am sitting in my living room in Atlanta, GA. 20,000km away. The people are coming up to the computer and asking questions...















and this one guy hacked in for a second, but I got rid of him...lol
