What’s Up - July 2018

What’s Up for July?

Mars is closest to Earth since 2003!

image

July’s night skies feature Mars opposition on the 27th, when Mars, Earth, and the Sun all line up, and Mars’ closest approach to Earth since 2003 on the 31st. 

image

If you’ve been sky watching for 15 years or more, then you’ll remember August 2003, when Mars approached closer to Earth than it had for thousands of years.

image

It was a very small percentage closer, but not so much that it was as big as the moon as some claimed.   

image

Astronomy clubs everywhere had long lines of people looking through their telescopes at the red planet, and they will again this month!

image

 If you are new to stargazing, this month and next will be a great time to check out Mars. 

image

Through a telescope, you should be able to make out some of the light and dark features, and sometimes polar ice. Right now, though, a huge Martian dust storm is obscuring many features, and less planetary detail is visible.

image

July 27th is Mars opposition, when Mars, Earth, and the Sun all line up, with Earth directly in the middle.

image

A few days later on July 31st is Mars’ closest approach. That’s when Mars and Earth are nearest to each other in their orbits around the Sun. Although there will be a lot of news focusing on one or the other of these two dates, Mars will be visible for many months.

image

By the end of July, Mars will be visible at sunset.

image

But the best time to view it is several hours after sunset, when Mars will appear higher in the sky.

image

Mars will still be visible after July and August, but each month it will shrink in apparent size as it travels farther from Earth in its orbit around the Sun.

image

On July 27th a total lunar eclipse will be visible in Australia, Asia, Africa, Europe and South America.

image

For those viewers, Mars will be right next to the eclipsing moon!

image

Next month will feature August’s summer Perseids. It’s not too soon to plan a dark sky getaway for the most popular meteor shower of the year!

hey there LGBTQ kids who are also Christian/Jewish! If you feel like you’re disobeying God, questioning your faith, or feel wrong and dirty for loving who you love, there’s this fantastic site I found today called hoperemains that accurately and thoroughly combs through scripture and its (many) mistranslations, validates your orientation, and basically let’s you know that you’re not pissing off God. It’s insanely thorough and after reading through every page on the entire site it’s super helpful. Go check it out!

Change in content

I think I’m going to post different kinds of aesthetics that I like, I like to post things that look nice and make me feel something, so I’m trying to broaden that. There’s 45K followers on this blog, if you don’t like the content, let me know and I’ll switch it up. And if you want a picture of my dog, she is very cute. Just a heads up

A reminder to not try out this guy’s Spyro: Myths Awaken fangame.

If you talk like that to professionals game developers like Toys For Bob, you don’t deserve their attention at all. 

Another reminder that he talks down to fans who adore the Spyro Reignited Trilogy in a similar fashion.

Can we have a little family celebration for Theo's bday? :3c

Theo: *yawns*

Burr: Morning Theo.

Theo: Morning Dad.

Burr: Happy birthday.

Theo: Thanks Dad.

Burr: Since it’s your birthday today you’ll get a day off from school and you and I will spend time together.

Theo: Really? That’s awesome! But what about work?

Burr: I have Alexander to cover for me.

*meanwhile at work*

Alexander: Hm… I wonder what kind of work Burr really does? *opens Burr’s office*

Jefferson: Hamilton! Are you ready to work together?

Alexander: Shit!

*back at the Burr’s house*

Theo: Well… This should be a fun day!

Burr: Yep! Just you and I having a fun time together on your special day. So what do you wanna do today?

Theo: I was wondering if we can go see Mom?

Burr: Wh-

Theo: I know! It’s my birthday I shouldn’t say anything that makes me sad. But I really want to see Mom today. Than maybe later on we can go to lunch and see a movie as well?

Burr: *hugs her* Of course we can. We can do whatever you want.

Theo: Thanks Dad.

Burr: Now go get ready. If we’re lucky we can beat traffic.

Theo: Okay. *runs to her room*

Burr: *sighs* Oh Theodosia… if only you were here to see how much our daughter has grown. I bet you would be proud of how much she has become.
