Update:

Since the weather here's been uncooperative and trying to get in observing time has been futile, I'll likely have the chatroom open most if not all nights the remainder of this week. Look for it starting around 8:00 PM ET (1:00 GMT... apologies to those across the Atlantic).

In the near future, I also plan on having the room open for coverage of the Deep Impact launch (currently scheduled for January 12th, ~ 1:00 PM ET [~18:00 GMT]), and the Huygens descent January 14th (scheduled beginning at 3:00 AM ET [9:00 GMT]).

Please this is an inslut. There's so much platform independant software solutions out there {say IRC, for one}, and you had to go with something that would take me litteraly days to get working on my system. ... ...

Anyone brave enough to set up an IRC solution? Would rock...

We do, Colt and Vermonter had the up room a while ago. I haven't seen anyone on lately though.

Link.

As Sever pointed out, there has been an IRC room for some time. It, however, does not offer voice capability. Paltalk does have its limitations, and as stated previously, I'm not intentionally excluding those on non-MS platforms. But for what we've been doing, it's free and it works quite well.

P.S.: The room will probably not be opened tonight, as I've been granted the first clear skies in some time, and there are 4 new eyepieces burning a hole in my pocket.

Well, i'll start mixing some "wine", and it might still roll on this 7.2

I think the word "insult" is un-called for. Wolverine is doing this because he wants to, and is doing everyone a favor.

Just a reminder:

I'll have the chatroom open marathon-style for coverage of Huygens. The NASA TV/ESA schedules have been posted elsewhere in GA but just to recap, the party will kick off beginning Friday morning at 3:00 AM ET [9:00 GMT].

It's going to be an exciting day, feel free to come hang out and (hopefully) watch history in the making. 8)

It droped out (the feed) :x . Alians planet X who knows.... Wolverine said it will be back on soon (they displayed a graphic). if Wolve dousn't I'll post a message here....

Just thought I'd let everyone know...

Back up and running (the chatroom ).

Still going strong. Swing by if you'd like to discuss the new presents from Huygens.

For earlybirds and/or those overseas, the room will be open this morning, Jan 15th, for the ESA Huygens briefing -- currently scheduled for 5AM ET (10:00 GMT).

[Edited to correct GMT due to sleep deprivation 8-[ ]

Regarding the above post, same goes for the ESA briefing Friday morning on the 21st, same bat time, same bat channel.

Chatroom will be open tonight, Jan 21st/22nd, for The BA's appearance on Coast to Coast AM. As noted on the main page, this segment begins at 2:00 AM Eastern/11:00 PM Pacific [07:00 GMT].

yeah I just noticed... so thats 3 hours from now ?

Sorry -- hadn't seen the above posts.

For the time being, I won't be opening the room on a regular basis, but will definitely do so for special events (e.g. The BA's radio appearances, the Shuttle Discovery launch, etc.) and shall post about them here as far in advance as possible. If my schedule can accomodate casual hosting in the near future and there's enough demand for the room to be open regularly, this will change (or if I'm unavailable, I can designate a couple more admins if need be).
