Sunday morning moon and Saturn


Saturn is the brighter “star” below the moon in this photo by Dennis Schoenfelder. The fainter true star in the moon’s glare is (I think) HIP90806, a faint star in the constellation Sagittarius. Photo by Dennis Schoenfelder

We got a couple inches of snow, and my wife and I went out this morning to move snow. I let her start without me when I saw the moon and Saturn. It was -7 degrees Farenheit [editor’s note: about -22 degrees Celsius]. My fingers got cold but I got the picture.

Oh… we did clear our sidewalk, as well as the sidewalks of two of our neighbors.

Thank you for submitting your photo to EarthSky, Dennis!
