I turned my scope to the Leo Triplet of galaxies last night to catch asteroid 8 Flora nearby. In a few days this minor planet will cross in front of the top galaxy in that picture - NGC 3628, the Hamburger Galaxy. It should be an interesting event to follow. #Astronomy #Astrophotography

If my calculations are correct at about 1:20 am on 3rd March 2025 TONIGHT The Moon and Venus should show identical phase angles. Could it be an ideal photo opportunity? HoAG

Something else to thank EM for.
"The sustained rate of daily reentries is unprecedented," says Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the Harvard Center for Astrophysics who tracks satellites. "They are retiring and incinerating about 4 or 5 Starlinks every day."
