Friday Fun: Astronomy Picture of the Day

Posted on September 25, 2015 by Barbara

Here’s some fun you can have not only on Friday, but every day: Astronomy Picture of the Day. “Each day a different image or photograph of our fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation written by a professional astronomer.” You also can visit the pictures of previous days (aka the archive). Thank you, NASA!

    You must be gearing up for the “supermoon” lunar eclipse on Sunday (today!)

    The “blood” moon the other night was pretty cool as well.
