Out this morning looking at the moon with the little home-made refractor at work. It has a completely different character than first quarter. Strange seeing shadows backwards from the way we most often see them. Pico and Piton casting long shadows, Clavius in sharp relief. I'd have counted craterlets if I had more aperture and higher powers available. The sky is much steadier before dawn than after dusk. Beautiful, serene. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
