Good stargazing when it's clear. I'm fond of astronomy too. Love meteor showers, just had the Geminids and they were fantastic. Looked at the Horse Head Nebula in Orion yesterday and was amazing.

Yep, I have a lot of NASA lithos with hubble images and you're in a great area for viewing. Pity everything is so far away that we'll never get there. The nearest exoplanet which MIGHT sustain life is just a stroll down the road. A miserable 18 light years away.

I estimated that at our current best speeds, it would take us over 230,000 earth years to get there. Charming thought :)

Pack some movies. It's gonna be a long trip

Today is actually dry. First time in a fortnight. Looking forward to tomorrow if the forecast is correct - cold, crisp, frosty, and bright. Perfect for a Christmas Day.
