The Red Square Nebula

Did you spot this with your telescope Mango? Last night coming into SOWAL, the crescent moon was setting into the bay;moon was blood red and was being escorted into the horizon by Venus. Gorgeous.

No, no one has seen this before that anyone has made published.
I would love to see this through telescope. I suppose if you find that star they were looking for, we might see this, but not as red if you don't have combined infrared telescopes.

It's a beauty though.

The moon was pretty last night. Finally a sunset after all the rain, rain, rain we have had.

We went out last night to see a play and that's what I thought too, when we were walking back to our car afterward. It was the kind of moon that reminded me of that nursery rhyme, When the Dish Ran Away With the Spoon. It was a perfectly beautiful moon, the kind they illustrate in books.

Check out the stuff here. Bizarre. Get ready for our collision with Andromeda!

I use Listerine.

science is so awesome...this may even get our little crowd of LUSHES interested in astronomy: :clap_1: Known as a "bipolar nebula", it has twin cones of out-flowing winds, shaped like two cocktail glasses placed stem-to-stem.:clap_1:

sounds like a very good excuse, I mean reason, to lounge on grayton beach every night this summer til 11pm.
