@capitalweather Geared up and walked 2 miles from home to Westbard Giant Foods for some basic necessities. It was a fun thing to do - but also exhausting. A lasting impression of the power and beauty of snow.

My review of a very clean used lens from KEH. When feasible, it is nice to buy used products, i.e., items already in circulation, to mitigate environmental stresses caused by new equipment production factors. https://t.co/Uoo2zeyJ4Q

@CanonUSA Partial Lunar Eclipse of 19 November 2021 taken with a CANON REBEL T7i attached to a SpaceCat 51 scope. The eclipsed images are viewed clockwise from bottom left. The larger central image shows the moon about 5 seconds beyond the point of maximum eclipse. https://t.co/KlCsta97YG

@ZelenskyyUa President Zelenskyy please consider issuing a postage stamp featuring the face of the Azovstal commander/soldiers unfairly captured, brutally interrogated by Russia. This will "protect" those fighters by making them public figures. #indianforukraine #SlavaUkrainii

This is how I welcome Spring! Bode's (spiral) galaxy M81 in Ursa Major imaged from our backyard. I have been experimenting with "narrow band" astrophotography and this is my first result. #astrophotography #m81

@ZelenskyyUa Hello President Zelenskyy, I am Vasu Jagannathan an Indian-American. I am married to a Ukrainian-American who I dearly love. Proud of the way you are representing Ukraine! You have risen to the occasion and shown yourself to be a true leader. #ukraine #ukraineindia

Comparing my pic of Comet Leonard taken ~5 am Dec. 5 with what is seen in in the Sky Safari app. The bright star trail at 2 o'clock in my pic corresponds to the double star "d Boo" in the app. #CometLeonard @capitalweather @ChuckBell4 @amelia_draper @dougkammerer @laurynricketts

[Vasu Jagannathan @SansPeurVJ]

Comet Leonard was in perfect position for imaging in the D.C. sky at ~5 am Dec. 5. I tweeted an image. Now, with additional data, here is another glimpse. The slashes are star trails. #CometLeonard #C2021A1 @capitalweather @ChuckBell4 @amelia_draper @dougkammerer @laurynricketts

"Fiery" sky | Thur. Dec. 8 | ~ 5 pm | 41° @capitalweather @ChuckBell4 @amelia_draper @dougkammerer @laurynricketts

[Vasu Jagannathan @SansPeurVJ]

A clear DC sky early today morning let me spot Comet Leonard which at 56 million km is a barely visible smudge in the east near easily visible Arcturus. The "dashes" are star trails. Enjoy! #CometLeonard @capitalweather @ChuckBell4 @amelia_draper @dougkammerer @laurynricketts

[Vasu Jagannathan @SansPeurVJ]

What a super sight at 7:45 am today: a 96.2% illuminated Moon in Taurus about 12.5 deg. above the horizon. We are lucky indeed to have these wonders in the sky above us! @capitalweather @ChuckBell4 @amelia_draper @dougkammerer @laurynricketts

Composite is a sequence of eclipsed lunar images viewed anticlockwise from the bottom left and a central image which is 5 secs beyond the 4:02:56 am EST of "greatest" eclipse. #lunareclipse #LunarEclipse2021 @capitalweather @ChuckBell4 @amelia_draper @dougkammerer @laurynricketts

From this Nov. 19 morning's partial lunar eclipse, a view of my single frame shot only 5 seconds past the time of "greatest" eclipse. #LunarEclipse #LunarEclipse2021 @capitalweather @ChuckBell4 @amelia_draper @dougkammerer @laurynricketts

[Vasu Jagannathan @SansPeurVJ]

My images of today's lunar eclipse run anticlockwise from bottom left. Point of greatest eclipse 4:02:56 am between the top two images. Note the ruddy color in the Umbra & the rotation of the sunlit segment. @capitalweather @ChuckBell4 @amelia_draper @dougkammerer @laurynricketts

Jupiter and 3 of its Galilean satellites in tonight's sky. Nice cold Nov. 13 night! @capitalweather @ChuckBell4 @amelia_draper @dougkammerer @laurynricketts

Looking south, Moon-Jupiter-Saturn 100 mins after sunset this beautiful 43° Nov 13 night. Pluto should follow Saturn but it is too faint to be visible. @capitalweather @ChuckBell4 @amelia_draper @dougkammerer @laurynricketts
