There’s a new comet in town.


Recommended Posts

I was so very disappointed when Halley's came around.
Midnight shift, Firelands hospital: step out back for a badly needed break and stand with Security, looking at a particular house's attic window to make sure the air-nav strobe on the hospital's roof could be seen reflecting from that black-glass mirror of an attic window.
Look up a little and to the left, and among a particular branch's bifurcations, we saw Halley's Comet, a fuzzy star with a fuzzy little short tail.

I was so very disappointed.

My Granddad, rest his soul, saw Halley's when it blazed through the night sky, shedding enough light a man could read a newspaper by its radiance.

I'll be searching the horizon for this newcomer, and if I can figure out how to run this fancy new electronic digital Nikon pitcher taken machine, I'll set a timed exposure and hope to catch it!

Big hill and too many trees to the NE of me. :(
