If At First You Don't Succeed
Jul. 21st, 2020 08:43 pmAfter lamenting here my vacation under darker skies didn’t coincide with evenings clear enough to try looking for Comet NEOWISE, I told myself even a “hazy” sky was clearer than I’d seen and got in my car as it got dark outside to drive north from my small city. At last pulling off to the side of the diminished road where it seemed dark enough, I got out with a pair of binoculars long in my family, but couldn’t spot any stars to the north despite some being visible in other directions. On the way back, I told myself I’d at least made the effort, and that would have to count for something.
