I stole the skies from Brian's images. They were going to waste anyway
@Brian Moore
It was a really elemental day - strong winds, fast-moving waves and clouds. Would we had more days like that, but the norm is grey, still, and dull.
I bought a nice pair of binoculars for star hopping, and ever since the clouds have barred any access to the remainder of the universe. It has been explained to me that it is all my fault, there being a Universal Law that anyone who buys an item of astronomical equipment automatically triggers a month of impenetrable cloud.
