EQUINOX SKY SHOW

Northern Spring begins today. To celebrate the occasion, Nature is putting on an equinox sky show. Look west after sunset for a close encounter between the crescent Moon and the Pleiades star cluster (Seven Sisters). It's a beautiful view, and a nice way to experience the equal night.
