  1. Luna in deep blue skies last night right before the clouds rolled in. Isn't she gorgeous? These were the last views before it was completely covered... what a gift nature can be.

  2. Sliver Moon Map

    Along the very edge of the visible moon I have marked some of the visible craters/rilles on the moon.
    It is hard to match the edge due to libration changes. I had to work backwards matching stellarium over 3 days.

  3. Last night's moon... sorry I have been incognito as of late. I have been quite under the weather and on top of that, skies have been overcast and viewing awful. Best view all week and still, meh.

  4. My closest capture yet of the Apollo 11 Landing site using a 2.5 mm lens, Galaxy A14 Android phone, ProCamX and a Dobsonian 10 telescope.

    Here you can see the small craters of Armstrong, Collins and Aldrin just above Moltke Crater and the Landing site in between!

  5. 94.8% Waxing Gibbeous Moon

    Last night's skies were clear as a bell. I tried getting close views of Saturn but sadly the bright light just above it...🌕 made the edges fuzzy.

    (Sorry post earlier had a mistake. One of my markers must have accidently moved while I was making the map.)

  7. Last night's moon view with Apollo Maps and Seas Notated. Not feeling great so I grabbed a few shots and went to bed before checking illumination. Sorry, no percentage this time.

  9. 31.3% Waxing Moon

    Enjoy a view of our moon from tonight. Look at how blue Tranquility Sea is... this is due to the higher metal content in the lava basin. You can even see where it spilled over a little bit into the Sea of Serenity along the edge.

  19. Today the Waxing Crescent Moon 🌒 is in Sagittarius ♐️,

    a good time to think about what you believe in.

    Beliefs come in many forms, but believing in the future can mean:

    ✨ believing in yourself 🤸🏾‍♀️
    ✨ trusting the process 🙏🏾
    ✨ envisioning new possibilities 🦋

  22. Three non-conspiracies in one #photograph during today’s #sunset. There is a #WaxingCrescent #NewMoon, to which humans have been in my lifetime. The #contrail that a passing #aeroplane is illuminated by the setting #Sun and is made up of water droplets condenses out of hot exhaust #gases of the #JetEngines.

  23. Around this time of the #LunarCycle, the #Moon is very close to the position of the #Sun in the sky and so to get a picture of it, you either have to be up just before dawn for the #OldMoon and just after dusk for the #NewMoon. The actual new Moon was yesterday but this evening, I managed to capture this thin sliver of a #WaxingCrescent. Of course it’s very dim at present and so I had to use a #tripod.
