Anyway, I did manage to find one page that has some images from a couple different countries. ASTRONET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty cool! By the way, I loved that alternate thread, hopper! I almost wanted to vote for the whole "be glad man on the moon isn't sticking his nose in our business anymore" but I had to vote for ted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of them was focused on Saturn (the bright "star" that was to the left side of the Moon). Now that was super cool! The scope was strong enough to see Saturn's rings. My husband has a telescope and he once found Saturn quite by accident. It was so beautiful...especially the rings I didn't get out and look at last night's eclipse...it was clear but way tooo cold!
