Great website... Would stare at the night sky as a kid tenting in back yard...have always been looking up at night and seen many wonderful things ( usually while walking the dog at night.) Live on an island off the coast of Maine with few lights from the town, so the ski is brilliant. The heavens never cease to amaze me. thank you Gordon
