| Felix's image of the Super Moon on the 22nd of June 2013 |
Not much action in the Cabine this week as Toot and I were away having a few days holiday in Devon and Dorset.
On our return I hoped to see the 'Full Moon' at perigee (ie. at its closest to Earth and when to the eye it appears at its largest). Sadly the British weather did what it does best and clouds over our backyard precluded any views of our nearest celestial neighbour.
Luckily the Moon was observable from Southend and my eldest grandson, Felix, captured this smashing image through his newly acquired telescope and his Dad's mobile phone.
The next time the Moon will look as big will be in August 2014 so not long to wait if you want to see a Super Moon.
Great work Felix, Pappa and Toot are proud of you!
