The more upscale cruise lines do

to the comment, "When these celestial events happen, I wish cruise ships had
astronomers on board.

A number of years ago, on my first cruise aboard Costa's Daphne, the Captain
was an astronomy fan. He presented a number of slide shows on astronomy and
conducted star lectures on deck a number of evenings. When we went out on deck
for the talks, the Captain had the outside lights (except those required by
regulation) extinguished. This was in the southern Caribbean.

That is really cool Ray. I wish we had had that captain for the meteor
shower on my cruise last year.
