Super Stars

We were able to witness a Venus and Jupiter's conjunction on June 30th.  It was a beautiful sight and one that hasn't been seen since 2,000 years ago!  We made a family night of it and set out to an empty parking lot to get a good look.

 I set up our telescope and had to do quite a few adjustments while everyone took a look due to the excessive amount of bumping the stool and telescope!  They insisted it was the earth rotating, but it doesn't rotate that fast...

I was even able to see Jupiter's moons.

 Can you see it in the back?

 Felfie (as apposed to selfie) for the whole family!

My trusty little point-and-shoot camera made me really happy... I wasn't expecting to get these good of pictures!

And then we had some fun... doing artistic things...

 Jordan's bright idea.

 

This pose was quite difficult to capture... 

Obviously.

 I am a ringleader!

"Lift up your eyes on high
And see who has created these stars,
The One who leads forth their host by number,
He calls them all by name;
Because of the greatness of His might and the strength of His power,
Not one of them is missing."
-Isaiah 40:26

I serve an amazing Creator. And if you don't know Him personally, I suggest you seek and find Him. Just like the Wise Men did.
