Venus rises at 5:03 AM and will climb to almost twelve degrees above the southeastern horizon by dawn (civil twilight ends at 6:37 AM).

I am attempting to reschedule this event for next week, but haven't heard back from the Museum yet.  If I can't reschedule it for then, it will be moved to April's meeting.  I'll post to the calendar as soon as we have a make-up date.  Stay safe and warm everyone!
