Behold, directly overhead, a certain strange star was suddenly seen... Amazed, and as if astonished and stupefied, I stood still.
— Tycho Brahe
This picture was taken on September 1, 2005. Celestron SPC-6, Olympus Camedia C4000. That's all I can remember. This is an example of Earthshine. There was moonshine on Earth tonight!
