Uh-oh

Brother Brent and I met outside Mjolnir at 10:30 tonight to do a little comet watching.  Neowise is easy to pick out.  It's not bright enough for me to get a pic but we used binoculars to get a better view of it.  It was a beautiful night w/ just enough breeze to keep the mosquitoes off.  Warm enough to make you want to sit out side all night and just watch the stars go by.  To the south Jupiter (which is in opposition) and Saturn were  very bright.  The broad band of Milky Way splashed upward nearby.

Since I haven't a picture of the comet to show you, thought I'd include an interesting picture my neighbor Anita sent.
