April 2015 W.A.S.P.

The Warren Astronomical Society publishes a monthly newsletter titled the W.A.S.P. I’ve been the editor and producer of this publication during my 2014 & 2015 terms on the board of the WAS; We’ve just published the April 2015 issue.

Cover of the April 2015 issue of the W.A.S.P. Artwork by Brian Thieme. Cover of the April 2015 issue of the W.A.S.P. Artwork by Brian Thieme.

I wrote an article for the February 2014 issue: The Year After the Asteroid Fell – chronicling the events and discussions during the year after the Chelyabinsk Impact Event. Br. Guy and Dr. Harold Reitsema fact-checked and reviewed this article for me.

Br. Guy was kind enough to write an article for the April 2014 issue: Six Surprises – where he talks about the revised edition of Turn Left at Orion, and six deep sky objects that were “unexpected delights” to him. I love the photo of Br. Guy in this article.

After I published my first issue of the W.A.S.P., a Society member commented to me that it looked like an Astronomy or Sky and Telescope magazine – which made me laugh, because I had both of those open and on my desk while I was working on it. The newsletter has evolved a lot over the year I have been producing it; I’m very pleased with its progress.

I cannot explain where this newsletter is coming from! Before I started working on the W.A.S.P., I had zero experience producing anything like it. I recently saw a printed copy of the newsletter; prior to this, I’d only seen it on the computer screen, in PDF form. Wide-eyed, I looked at the double-sided printout, almost embarrassed how… thick… it was. I leafed through it, knowing I had just published it a few days before, but still in a state of shocked disbelief, at holding it in my hands.
