An Unacceptable Deception Of Our Children

Today we saw Elon Musk’s Space X launch a car into space and among other things, demonstrated just how unfounded and irrational the beliefs and claims of flat earthers really are. We're talking bat shit crazy again here.

Creationism teaches the Earth is Only 10,000 years old. This is just an as idiotic belief. Despite this, forward thinking countries like Australia allow the teaching of creationism as fact in our schools. We must end religious indoctrination in our schools. Apart from being an intentional and unacceptable deception of our children, it is an insult to science and commonsense.

Super Blue Blood Moon Shots

If like myself, last night you were looking forward to blowing the dust off the lenses and getting out there to photograph Lunar eclipse after having counted the cost of boldly braving the sudden nocturnal cold snap as nothing but, also like me you are a citizen of Sydney, you're probably feeling robbed for the most part this morning.
Clouds at low and high altitudes conspired with relatively high winds to make the whole thing a bit of a fizzer from our point of view after all.

None the less, the same was not the the experience for other astronomy amateurs buffs (and professionals) across Oz.

I've put together a sampling below of what we here in the Harbour City missed out on seeing for ourselves last night.

Will let them speak for them selves. Enjoy.

Stargazers, space junkies, people who like the outdoors & pretty much everyone should see #SuperBlueBloodMoon tomorrow (Wednesday) night. #Perth, as always, will have spectacular views - clear (mostly) unpolluted skies, great position! From 7:48pm AWST https://t.co/nVrPDLZrPJ

My Grandmother used to say to me that "nothing good happens in Darlinghurst after dark".

Wise woman.

Total Eclipse Of The Heart

Tonight is the first total lunar eclipse since 2015 and everybody in Oz should have a front row seat a seat for it. That's assuming there are no clouds of course.
