I was just awake this morning and happened to notice how clear it was over the city. From this apartment we really can see the sunrise over Milwaukee.
With just some 50×10 binoculars, you can just barely see the cloudy nebulous nature around M42 “Orion’s Nebula”. For those who have lived in different locations around the Midwestern United States this is an easy and endlessly pleasant target to set your sights on. I am still learning how to star hop and these binoculars honestly were a great idea.
Venus and Jupiter have been dancing together in the east almost like they are celebrating the Sun’s arrival. They have been doing that for the past few days, I thought it was noteworthy. I have moved around so much I haven’t gotten a chance to get my paper copy of Sky & Telescope to know what the story is with the planets. I Suppose I /could/ just go log in, but… it wouldn’t smell or taste the same.
Happy Thursday and Good Morning Milwaukee.
