VIRTUAL HOLIDAY GET-TOGETHER IS THIS AFTERNOON AT 1:00PM
CLUB’S 2022 VIRTUAL HOLIDAY GET-TOGETHER IS TOMORROW!
Join us tomorrow afternoon, December 3, at 1:00PM for our Virtual Holiday Get-Together!
This event will constitute the first part of the club’s 2022 Seasonal Celebrations! (Our in-person Christmas Luncheon, scheduled for the following Saturday, December 10, constitutes the second part; more information about that affair is to be posted next week—watch this space!)
Beginning at 1:00PM, we’ll be gathering on ZOOM to chat and share as the Holidays near. This will afford particularly our out-of-towners the opportunity to wish each other the very best of the season, and of course, to talk all things sci-fi, and beyond!
No formal programming is planned, but we welcome any ad hoc contributions of an SF/F or seasonal theme—show off your homemade SF/F Christmas tree decorations, put up photos of your miniature Christmas village, recommend favourite Holiday movies, etc.
And, akin to the perennial Christmas specials that air on TV, we’ll post on our site some of the best Holiday presentations we’ve featured these past few years of pandemic-induced e-meetings!
So join us for a few minutes, or a few hours, tomorrow, Saturday, December 3, beginning at 1:00PM for the club’s 2022 Virtual Holiday Get-Together!

BLUEWALKER 3 HAS SUDDENLY BRIGHTENED: There’s a new light in the night sky. Astronomers report that the BlueWalker 3 communications satellite has suddenly brightened nearly 50-fold, a sign that it is unfurling its giant antenna in low Earth orbit. Some astronomers worry that BlueWalker 3 might become one of the brightest objects in the night sky. So far it is about as bright as a 1st magnitude star.
