Equinox
Check out the sky tonight.
Jupiter was at opposition last night, putting it about as close to Earth as it ever gets - which, fortunately, is still a damn long ways away, or we'd be toast. Tonight is the Fall Equinox, at 11:09 pm Eastern, and Jupiter will still be damn close to opposition... but joined by the Full Moon, which will hit true opposition early tomorrow morning.
A full moon that close to the Equinox? And all lined up with Jupiter and Uranus? What does it mean?
Nothing, really. It's just cool.
