I haven't spotted it yet, but there was an event on the 29th that was amazing. The city cops had someone pulled over across the field from my house. (the first time in 6 years i heard a siren) anyway they had all their lights on and back up came in two deep. (2 more cop cars) the whole force was there, all 3 of them. I was out in the garage working on my Harley when i heard them. I went outside to get some air and look at our police force in action. When i saw some thing in the night sky that we never see in these parts . It was green and had a pulse (blinking), It just so happened that i had my laser pointer , so i thought i would paint it because it wasn't normal looking like a small airplane, as soon as i hit it with the laser it stopped and went back from the way it came. yep, ain't no airplane. I think they were checking out all those flashing light's from the cop cars. and i think they were getting tired of me constantly pointing that laser at them. The moves it was making were freaking me out.

OK, I'll admit, I only clicked on this because a pretty girl was talking about the geeky things I like. I didn't know she was a phd and all of that. If I did, I would have clicked harder. Also, Australia doesn't exist. I went there and it was just barren land surrounded by 15 miles thick of coastland. It's not an actual country. It's not the size of a moon or even a mini-moon. Unless the moonlet has like a giant hole in the middle. Which would make it a space donut. Hmm..space donuts.

Wish you could add some US measurements in there also for all of us non-metric people.

Oh yes of course! Thank you for the reminder 😊
