Again, beautiful reports, Dana, bringing complex concepts within the scope of all star- seekers who stretch the limits of their own scopes and leave us always on the edge of searching for what lies beyond. I have spent the odd hour over many years searching for and often not finding those faint fuzzies as my own mental gas tanks hovers near empty!
I often wonder why we don’t head for the obvious beacons that eventually stand out like searchlights to our dark adjusted eyes. You reported passing the obvious Antares and not even bowing to that glaring urchin in orange lederhosen that only wakes from obscurity ever couple of years and then rapidly hides under its eccentric blanket.
Thanks, Dana, for taking us on the road not taken, and beware your preoccupation with the Southern Pleiades – you make grow to like this pretender, which carries Otto Struve’s Grecian signature. Regards, Eugene
