Hate to continue an astrological (huh?) thread on an avianistical (double
huh?) place, but I just looked at it as it was coming up way over across the
lake. No, it didn't come up out of the lake. However there are clearly 2
moons on the right in the plane they are usually in. However on the left I
see what appear to be two moons and one is slightly above the other. Am I
seeing it right or did some star create an illusion.

Subject: [MDOSPREY] Off topic: Jupiter amazingly bright tonight


I just got in from looking at Jupiter. It is quite bright, and I had no
trouble seeing its 4 big moons through binoculars in the clear sky. Uranus
was a little above and to the left of Jupiter, and greenish/aquamarine in
color, about the same brightness as the moons of Jupiter. This may be the
first time I've ever seen Uranus.
