Paul Cooper - I have been a big fan for years. What’s the best way to help out the show? Can we send donations? (The book was also wonderful BTW)

And there she is, resplendent in her fullness. The early October skies have been kind here in southern Vermont. Tomorrow night will be much needed rain, then seasonally cool. Splendid!

Just another brilliantly clear evening here in southern Vermont. With it being so near to full, it’s about the only thing that’s observable this evening besides the bright stars. DSOs will have to wait a week.

The Reich Wing, indeed.

The Sons of Liberty @sonsofliberty.bsky.social · 23d

Hypocrisy is the Reich Wing claiming that Charlie Kirk was deeply committed to enlightened debate and freedom of speech but getting ass-mad if anyone else A.) quotes anything he said and B.) cancelling you if you exercise your freedom of speech or try to debate his martyrdom simps.

Altiar draws my eye, and leads me to Delphinus.

A beautiful predawn shot of the great Orion Nebula M42. (Not to belittle the other nebulae in Orion 😆)

So, so delicate this morning, arcing through Gemini and passing Jupiter along the way.

Such a fine and delicate moon watching over us tonight. So much tranquility sailing over our mad, mad world.
