For some reason, the body got stripped from the first try, so here it is
again:

I just discovered that UT Austin's Harry Ransom Center library has an
exhibit called "Other Worlds: Rare Astronomy". The exhibit features
artifacts representing great achievements from the last 500 years of
astronomy. It looks like there are several pieces from the last couple
of centuries of the SCA period. They specifically mention books and
illustrations which might be of interest to practitioners of the scribal
arts as well as my fellow natural philosophers.

The exhibit opened Sept 8 and will be on display until Jan 3, 2010.
