With Mars close encounter being the apparent diameter of the moon I reckon it's gonna be bloody crowded up there. Better write that night off for any astro-photo work.

I would love a second Moon, though certainly would play havoc with the tides!! As long as it rose not long after our Moon, so we still have some New Moon viewing.
In scifi movies there are ofter 2-3 Beautiful moon in the night sky, and looks stunning!! have always loved that look, and wanna live there (in my dreams of course).
What a great reading resource jjj!! So many interesting articles, and stuff that I didnt know, wow. Life is full of curvy balls.

the quality of the other stories says it all too like "stevie ray vaughn seen at the crossroads" and george bush "i'm gay" in fact the only beleivable one is "osama bed linnen (sic) works at CIA!"

Hey!

It's true.

It's on the internet so it must be true.

And Busby is a small suburb in Western Sydney? I wonder if the neighbouring suburbs had the same sight?
