Yep.

She’ll be sorry….not!

If it occurs in the middle of the night then I will catch it on the news or wherever the photo is published.

If he wants her to go, he is going to have to comet it from a different angle.

Most/many comets, if/when you are able to see them without a telescope, will be visible for several days or even weeks.

[A comet will not just streak part way across the sky for a second or two like a meteor. In fact, if you observe a comet on just one night (especially without a telescope), it will not even appear to be moving.]

Any time there’s something interesting to see up there, I can count on the skies being overcast in my area.

It is low, you will need an aid and dark skies, and it is amazing !

I always know when it will be cloudy. Anytime an event like this takes place.

got to see starlinks a couple weeks ago. that was pretty cool

The moon and Jupiter have been playing tag these last few nights.

That was me last week when the weatherman was getting all excited about the northern lights.

Thanks for bringing back a long forgotten memory of my father taking me out to the middle of nowhere at 3 am to see Halley’s Comet! It was pretty awesome.

I’ll settle for the solar eclipse coming up on the 14th.

We always seem to have cloudy skies when these rare astrological events come around. The fact that it’s normally a dry climate makes this especially annoying.

I bet that’s what the wives on Jupiter said before the Shoemaker-Levy “string of pearls” comet fragments hit their atmosphere with multi-megaton explosions.

Good call….

One of the few things I miss about work: you see these wonders in the open parking lot. My house is surrounded by trees. When something happens, it happens on a cloudy or rainy night.
