The Moon lives..

Of course the clouds covered the moon so me and Alley went in to watch on tv, the kids hearing that the clouds were out stayed in bed.

Even without the cloud cover there was no way we could have seen the flash let alone the plume..
Oh well.

1. I saw the flash from the onboard cameras

;)

It whited-out the camera so they switched to the medium-band infrared. They then showed visual images from the last moments of the LCROSS vehicle.

It was all really cool! Had me on the edge of my sofa :D

3. I'm not so sure ...

I went outside, and there's only cloud and rain. Maybe they blew it up and all that lunar water is falling on my back yard.

I'm in Michigan, so probably won't be able to check on the moon until April, when this cloud goes away.

:hi:
