Super Harvest Moon Dont Miss it

[Fuzz420]

Sept. 22, 2010: For the first time in almost 20 years, northern autumn is beginning on the night of a full Moon. The coincidence sets the stage for a "Super Harvest Moon" and a must-see sky show to mark the change of seasons.

The action begins at sunset on Sept 22nd, the last day of northern summer. As the sun sinks in the west, bringing the season to a close, the full Harvest Moon will rise in the east, heralding the start of fall. The two sources of light will mix together to create a kind of 360-degree, summer-autumn twilight glow that is only seen on rare occasions.

The rest of the story

I dont know how much of you are into astronomy but you dont want to miss this. Its a shame i live in the city now, but i still hope its will be a good show.

Next one will be 2029. For those that didnt get the good weather, you still have plenty of time to see jupitor up there next to the moon

Well it pretty much rains every other day here (or it seems like it), so I've got a 50% chance of seeing it next time.
