Stars


This one’s for Rachel. Thanks for taking care of our wet music.

As Tom mentioned below, we went, along with a bunch of other people, to see the stars. (Nominally the meteors, but there weren’t very many of them.) I’ve got a little tripod, so I took some long-exposure (15 seconds, so not really that long) shots of the sky.

Cassiopeia over the horizon.

Orion.

This is the PLEIADES.

This is the PLEIADES.

And now for something completely different.

This is awesome. Someone should do this for a CS50 final project.

    Aw! Thanks! And really nice shot of the Pleiades. I always have a soft spot for them. Where did you guys go to watch? We tried the stadium but only saw a few meteors.

    We went here, which was kinda (but not too) far away:

    There were also not many meteors here. But Danny got these awesome shots! And the sky was nice and dark.
