Maiden Moonstruck Voyage














I gave my wife a telescope for her birthday last month and we broke it in tonight watching the eclipse. It was the perfect maiden voyage. Earlier in the afternoon it snowed in D.C. and just before the eclipse began, large clouds were roiling across the sky. But as the earth's shadow fell across the the lunar surface, the clouds scattered, giving us a gorgeous view as the moon turned blood red and went dark.
