I don't remember Halley comet. Well, I do but it is a foggy memory.
SB: Your memory is good. I had prior memories of Halley's from a film about
Mark twain who is reported to have seen it twice., it comes every 75 years.
so , on padre island minus the glorious movie music, even through a telescope it really looked like a cottonseed ball with its dark center. by comparison, I saw Hall several nights in the clear ocean air from the balcony of a house on a pacific island I was able to buid, because I had escaped the wt special pioneer mill in time.
A sight that would dispel any doubts that there is more to creation than talking snakes.
I recommend eclipses too.
In April 8 2024 there will be one over upstate NY. do not miss it.
