What we saw *above* our neighborhood tonight.
I took this photo using a phone adaptor attached to our scope. The moon is not yet completely full. Click the image to enlarge.
One of today's news reads:
You won't see a moon quite like this for another 11 years because this year's full cold moon falling almost exactly in line with the December solstice on the 21st, with its peak around midday on the 22nd. The longest night of the year coincides with a big, beautiful full moon. It's the first time since 2010 since the two have been less than 24 hours apart, and the last time until 2029.
