I was out early this morning and viewed the Crescent Moon up just above the eastern horizon, and following not to far behind Saturn and Jupiter. Lovely to see just before The Sun announced the new day. Amazing to get a glimpse when you think that the Moon is approximately 252,000,000 miles from Earth then you have to travel another 300,000,000 miles beyond the Moon to get to Jupiter, and another 440,000,000 to reach Saturn. How big and beautiful they are from such a distance and how lucky I am to get the opportunity to catch a glimpse. There is more to Heaven and Earth....

I keep imagining what must have gone through the first astronauts minds.
