Artemis Launch

You can just barely see her in the clouds low and left of center.

It emerged well after the solids were gone.

I zoomed in and got a poorly focused look.

And didn't get much more.  As it went downrange it got back into the clouds.

The moon was nice.

Caught Orion too!  I keep hoping to catch Betelgeuse going nova.  Better focus, but longer shutter.

  1. Betelgeuse should be impressive when it goes. Might have already (probably) but it is like 640 light years away so it will be a long time after it happens before we see it.

  2. Hmm.. well, it looks like opinions vary as to how far it is from 350 light years all the way up to 750-ish. Still several generations of time any way you look at it.

    1. I wanna be looking the moment the light of it happening gets here. Is that phrased well enough Pedantis?

    2. Oh, I totally agree, that would certainly be cool...
