Eta Aquarid meteor shower
A meteor appears to streak between our two neighbour galaxies (the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds) during the annual Eta Aquarid Meteor Shower.

When the going gets cold...
... the cold get dancing!
It was very cold up on Saddleback Mountain on Wednesday night, and the Aurora wasn't very bright. Did I mention it was really cold? I think it was because of this, and because we have a short attention span, that Saturday Night Fever broke out! On a Wednesday night, no less. :)
... Whether you're a brother Or whether you're a mother, You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive...
... Ah, ha, ha, ha, Stayin' alive. Stayin' alive...
Later on, we played light sabres! Well, it wasn't that much later, really. Mainly because of our short attention span. And because we don't know all the lyrics. :)
(Our sincere apologies to the Bee Gees, John Travolta, George Lucas and anyone else whose quality of life might have been irreparably diminished by our rendition of Stayin' Alive and/or Star Wars. Not that anyone would have recognised either performance as an interpretation of the original works).
