woooah tw1 !
look at that front move in!!!
course i have to look at more of those similar vids lined up at the bottom!
Way back for me while it was "only" the front of one ginormous Thunderhead.... i was looking westward from way upper Manhattan across the Hudson River over to the Palisades - a natural sheer cliff drop-off (forgot
either glacier, or volcanic lava flow over).
Above was begining edge of the cloud, then it curves "inward" to the main towering up mass- which you couldn't see- the next thing you saw above (leading edge) was a double (NEVER Seen THAT before) on top of each other partial curve of the (icing up) anvil.
NO cmaera with me so I sat there and made a quick sketch which I re-did later. Then walked 1/2 mile home, drew pretty similar sight over the small comercial block it was sonme what closer.
It was moving pretty slowly. It took about another half hour before it actaully came over enough to rain!
I wonder how longit took ( the one you high-lighted) to start raining.
IEG
wow that Earth/Moon photo wow
inner chill-thrills!
and the new Mars photos! SO beautiful! So intriging!
I've never forgotten the first time i got to see part of the Moon upclose at a college friend's summer get together. He had a nice telelscope.
Oh My to see the moon's diffeerent sized craters up close, sharp, AND the shadows cast from them by The Sun - really making it REAL!
*has wondered for a long time whether The Edge has been able to buy time at one of the great Visible Light Mirror Telescopes*
You def have to see
more of this stuff Moonlit! I've seen about half of it...def must catch up more myself!
thanks people!
