So last night I went to the Jazz Under the Stars event as Pine View, where I was able to listen to our award winning Jazz Band play while looking at the amazing Winter Sky. I watched as the constellation Orion appeared, along with Canis Majoris. I was able to distinguish all of the Winter sky's notable features, including the stars Aldebaran, Arkenar, Sirius, Castor, Capella, Pollux, Procyon, as well as the Pleiades star cluster. There were plenty of Constellations visible, in addition to the incredibly bright Supermoon! The last night the Moon was the closest it is going to be in orbit to the Earth in 18 years!! Brilliant, eh? Yup.
