Organizer Comments:
When we started the live observation different users from different countries took part at same observation program. We began with Moon crescent observation. My friends in Radio Voice of Sky helped us and produced a live radio program in Persian and English languages. Users asked their questions via Yahoo messenger, SMS and email. After 2 hours live observation when we want to finish the program they asked us to continue. So we continued 30 minutes more.
