I was outside in a total one when I was little, maybe 7 or 8. Suddenly it got dark and but for this eerie reddish glow. Kinda scary but also cool. I remember I was glad when the sun came back.
Hey Waves. I didn't see the eclipse. I'm not sure if it could be seen in this area. I usually know about these things,but I've been going through a hard time. BF

Cool Smirk
Lara and BF,
All these images fill me with awe. As for the Penguin collision, I wonder what views aliens - or humans living in other galaxies - will get when the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies collide in 4 billion years.

Dave.

Default Pluto flyby
Where are you BF? I hope you're doing well.
I was just looking at a neat article about Pluto and thought you may be interested.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-07-0...-focus/6566818
Pluto Comes Into Focus - ABC news Australia

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-07-1...-pluto/6616834
New Horizons Pluto mission: Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex to receive data from dwarf planet close encounter.

There will be close up photos coming tonight [Aust night I mean]

Countdown page at NASA [Edited to add: 4 hrs and 44 mins as I type this - so the photos will start coming down to earth after that. ]
