Today is either a waxing gibbous moon or a full moon.
ReplyDeleteThe moon was so so close to being a full moon it looked like less then a centimeter away from being a full moon. I spotted jupiter it shined really bright. The moon looked yellowish when I saw it.I spotted orion and ursa major.Serious the dog star shined really bright.I also spotted cassiopia.It looked buitful.
ReplyDeleteTonight, March 22, at 8:02, the moon's phase was a waxing gibbous. The moon is 99% illuminated because tonight is the night before the next full moon, tomorrow on March 23rd. The moon looked exactly like it had looked when I saw it yesterday, except, it was more yellowish I thought tonight. Tonight some constellations I saw were: Orion, Cassiopeia, Cepheus, and the brightest star in the night sky, Sirius the dog star which is the nose of Orion's hunting dog, Canis Major.
ReplyDeleteTonight 3-22 8:05 pm I saw the moon. The moon is very very bright. Also it looks exactly like a full moon. The sky is dark and clear, I didn't see any constellations.
ReplyDeleteWhen i saw the moon I thought that it was a full moon. But than i realized that the moon was 97% full! I also saw orion, casseopia and taurus. It was a beautiful moon.
ReplyDeleteWow! I saw that today is a full moon! I also spotted Orion! I am so proud of myself!!
ReplyDeleteOn March 22 at 8:30pm the sky was clear with no stars. I saw the moon it was so beautiful and bright. It really looked like a full moon but I know that it isn't a full moon.
ReplyDeleteI saw the moon tonight it was very bright and I saw the craters on the moon. I saw no stars and no Jupiter. I will look for constellations later and this time I might blog again.
ReplyDeleteBen the moon is so bright and pretty tonight like a sunset
ReplyDeleteTue 8:46 22 tHe sky was very clear tonight, the Waxing Gibbous looked so much like a full moon. I saw four constellations Orion, Cassiopeia, Cepheus, and the Pleiades.
ReplyDeleteToday I saw the moon at 8 p.m. and it was almost a full moon. Today is the last day of the Waxing Gibbons moon(99.8% illuminated) before the full moon shows tomorrow. Today the moon was right next to Jupiter. Hydra, the sea serpent, is the largest and longest constellation and it is to the south of Leo. I think I saw the only bright star of Hydra called Alphard, known as "Solitary One". I also saw Sextans, Leo Minor, Orion, and Jupiter.
ReplyDeleteCool fact - a 95% illuminated moon (even just 2.5 days before and after the full moon) appears half as bright as a new moon.
I saw a sliver of the moon from my house.
ReplyDeleteToday is Tuesday and the time is 9:06 there is a waxing gibbous and tomorow will be a full moon! I think I can spot Orion and serious the dog star! It is such "a out of this world moon!"
ReplyDeleteMarch 22 9:35
ReplyDeleteTonight I could see the moon nice and bright. I wish I could see the moon this bright every night
I saw a waxing gibbous! I cant wait for the full moon tonight, I was in a hurry so i didn't get to get a look at a constaltion or two. The gibbous looked like a full moon at first sight.. But it was a gibbous, after I noticed that on the chart...
