Shannon,
How fascinating! Thanks for sharing all that great astronomy stuff with
us. I love how you said you're homeschooling yourself! Have a great day!

Wow Shannon, thanks for all that info. We live in
Ocean County NJ and where we live there are few lights
so night viewing of the plants is awesome! And we
don't have a telescope! The moon is my favorite! What
county in NJ are you in?
Keep looking up ^
Jill
