does anyone else see a weird white halo around the moon? it forms a perfect circle with the moon as the center. weird. zombie apocalypse time. oh yeah.
if I remember correctly from jack horkheimer, star hustler, it's a lunar halo and is caused by a 22degree bend of light hitting clouds of ice crystals in the upper atmosphere.
yeah. that stuff is nuts. i saw a comet or whatever a couple of nights ago. it was pretty cloudy out but the comet was so bright, it shined through the clouds with a green tint. pretty cool.

I saw that. It was the only fucking thing visible through the clouds. Unfortunately, I'm entirely too lazy to go look up what was visible that night.
I'm 99% sure it wasn't a comet. I'm a little out of touch with the world of astronomy.. but I don't think it was a comet. I think it's a planet.
but there are a bunch of not visible bright comets out there
