Here's a reminder that the Around the World in 80 Telescopes begins at 2:00 a.m. tonight (well, Friday morning).
Visit http://100hoursofastronomy.org/webcast

Since the 100 Hours of Astronomy website is getting hit hard, you might want to try viewing directly on the Ustream.tv channel.
Here's the programming information for the 5 Caltech observatories on the show:
W.M. Keck Observatory 3 am Friday
Caltech Submillimeter Observatory 4:20 am Friday
Galaxy Evolution Explorer (Galex) 1:20 pm Friday
Spitzer Space Telescope 2:20 pm Friday
Palomar Observatory 1:40 am Saturday
All times are PDT
During the Palomar webcast you'll get to see a new astronomical image from the Hale Telescope and a short movie about the observatory. Both of which will be seen here after the event.
Today's APOD features a nice graphic for the Around the World in 80 Telescopes event.
