anyone else check this out in the last few days? spent all night out myself with a pretty good telescope, cool looking thing but hard to comprehend how far and fast it really is going out there

Nope and even if I tried to find it i'd be looking for hours of a black sky  ::)

I was up that early (taking the puppy out for a nature call) and looked, but I live in the city. I could not make out any constellations to even get oriented enough to know where to look.

darn shame   times like this is when im glad i moved out of the big city into the middle of no where in new mexico, i live about 15 miles from trinity site  ;) so its pretty blacked out at night, couldnt have asked for a better night last night, no clouds and not cold going to go out again 2night and see if i cant get a picture or 2

I tried watching it... but not only one has to be lucky to see more than 2 or 3 stars here due to luminous pollution... it was completely overcast that day

Wanted to see it but complete cloud cover...looks like more snow on the way again...

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

i tried to get some pictures of it with my telescope but when i went in for a drink i came out and found the cat chewing on the wire from the camera to the telescope so unfortunatly no pictures
