Smiley moon tonight

Post by El_Freddo » Mon Dec 01, 2008 8:35 pm

G'day all,

If any of you are near a window or can get a view of the moon in the west I suggest you take a look at it.

For those who don't know, can't see it, or missed the opportunity: Tonights moon looks like a smiley face, the crest of the moon being the smile and two stars being the eyes in perfect symetry.

Dad heard it on the radio, apparently its pretty rare. I don't know how long it will last but I hope to have a pic up soon...

Cheers

Bennie

I looked up at the sky as I always do and thought hmm smiley face. Don't see that everyday.

Rotate it about 90 degrees anti clockwise and that's how you'd be looking at it in the sky - never got around to rotating it, just glad the dial up allowed me to upload it... It will be interesting to see how it looks tonight if these clouds clear up by then.
