How come I can see any stars in this picture I don't believe you took a pic of the real moon. In fact I think you took a cut out picture of the moon and hung it in a box painted black so we can't see the ufo's hovering around it. LOL. Just kiddin, that is some really cool pics. I'd love to see more.

Het Skull got a question for you. Since I know nothing about this stuff, was Jupiter vivsible to the naked eye last week sometime? No this is not a joke, although there will probably be some. I saw something in the southeastern sky last week I couldn't explain. Thought maybe one of the planets might be close enough to see.


Cool pics BTW!!

i belive jupiter is clearly visible now, it is the brightest star in the night sky. if you have some binoculars handy, check it out. even with simple binoculars its pretty cool.

Thanks I think that was what I was seeing the other day. I have never seen any of the planets nearly as visible as that was, It was pretty cool.
