Clouds in the wrong place at the right time....
« Previous Main Next »
I've been looking for the Early Ammonia Servicer that was tossed off the international space station last year for three nights in a row now and have been unable to see it.
Part of the reason is it is dim.
And tonight clouds parked themselves in the path of where the refrigerator sized piece of space junk was predicted to fly through, so again I didn't see it. I saw the image above.
Perhaps I'll see it Thursday night since it will be higher in the sky and brighter.
It's space command number is 31928 if you are interested in trying it yourself.
The two bright stars at the upper left of the clouds are the pointer stars of the Big Dipper.

I like the combination of cloud and night sky.
Very well done even the night didn't produce the space junk.
