DISCUSSIONS – ANSWERS – ANNOUNCEMENTS

1.   Via Ventana View and Tom, BajaNightSky: Baja Night Sky – for week of February 27. Get ready for a spectacular celestial show this week in Baja! From February 27 to March 3, the night sky will come alive with a dazzling display of stars and planets. As soon as the sun goes down, Venus and Jupiter, the two brightest planets, will light up the sky over the majestic mountains to the west. Their radiant glow will be impossible to miss, shining like beacons of light in the dark abyss above. But that’s not all – if you gaze towards the south, you’ll witness an equally stunning sight. Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky, will be beaming down at Canopus, the second brightest star just a fist above the mountains. And on Wednesday evening, March 1, something truly special is set to happen. Venus and Jupiter will appear in conjunction, so close that they’ll be separated by just half a degree or one moon width! Make sure to catch this rare event by 8 pm, as they set just a few minutes later, and then turn your gaze towards the mountains to the south to behold the twinkling beauty of Sirius and Canopus. Don’t miss your chance to witness the magic of the Baja Night Sky! Tom at BajaNightSky@gmail.com with the assistance of ChatGPT

   After investigation it was found that the owner of the Storage compound located on the La Paz airport road was visited by representants of the State of Baja California Sur Secretary of Finances and administration. They did a precautionary seizure of all goods on the premisses including vehicles. Why? Because the owner of the Storage compound had on his property goods and vehicles which were not imported. The owner of the Storage facilities did not inform correctly the owners of goods and veh – jebeddy2012@hotmail.com
