Da Plane, Da Plane (t)
This particular morning, I had two drones flying to capture shots of the Blue Moon. I used one to shoot the Moon and the other drone. You ever try to fly two drones simultaneously? It's a lot of work!
Truthfully, this is a composite. My shots of the Moon were so boring, I had to do something. Besides, I liked the drone story.

#TGIF. From a deep freeze at dawn to a bright warmer afternoon. I have to admit "it's beginning to look a lot like spring," although it's not my favorite season (I'm weird, I know.). The proof was, when I left work and got to my car, the windshield was covered with very tiny but very visible POLLEN
Kengo wishes you a restful evening and a great weekend to all the good souls. My camelia has its first bloom.
On Sunday 2nd Feb '25 I photographed a bobbly aircraft vapour trail with each bobble casting its own shadow, creating a giant spine in the sky. Taken from Oxfordshire, UK with a Canon 1100D + 300mm zoom lens #contrail #CloudAppreciation #ContrailShadows

No luck with the super-low lunar crescent - others had more luck like https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10161709079772438 or https://www.facebook.com/groups/astronomie.fuer.anfaenger/posts/8583381958422838/ or https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=8755139621220105 - but got super-intense #contrail-'enhanced' #dusk effects instead this #evening: this is the final timestep, see https://www.facebook.com/dan.fischer.393/posts/pfbid037pgcWUzsBPyCWvtacJMbUYiGz91Fb6znxALYexEc5QNsiFLv5CiW4ifUnZUFwi4tl for earlier ones.
A pair of F-22 Raptors and a solo F-15 throw rainbow contrails high over Edwards Air Force Base, May 2022. The F-15 had a huge IR sensor pod on the wing #milair #aviationphotography #AvGeek #spotter #aviationdaily #photography #aircraft #Nikon #Z9 #edwardsafb #Raptor #eagle #rainbow #contrail #fighters

Not really anything to do with astronomy. Have they run out of relevant material?
“We also saw that flights that avoided contrails burned 2% more fuel, which would translate to 0.3% more fuel when scaled across an airline’s fleet. (This is because not all flights make contrails, and with AI predictions, only a fraction of flights need to be adjusted.) Together, this suggests #contrail avoidance costs could be in the range of $5-25/ton #CO2e, which would make it one of the most cost-effective #ClimateSolutions.”
