Similar thing happened to me today. Well, sort of. No Pacific Ocean, and I missed the actual sunset. But when I was heading down the stairs on the east side of the building this evening, I got a wonderful look at the full moon, with just a trace of orange on the buildings in the foreground. Jupiter was the bright "star" to the upper right of the moon, by the way. Just in case you were wondering. ;D (Yesterday, they were almost level with each other, with Jupiter to the south of the moon).
I was treated with an excellent clear sunset and simultaneous full moon rise in Ft. Bragg after work this evening...

ReplyDeleteThat's awesome Skyhiker. I actually was wondering which planet was next to the full moon on the drive home!
