The moon finally made its appearance after hiding due to recent arctic weather events here in the mid-South.
Visible in the sky during the day, we patiently awaited its debut to illuminate the night sky.
Around 11p.m. EST, I captured–using the SOLOMARK 70mm Telescope–the moon.
The moon phase was in its Waxing Gibbous phase, where 75% light illuminates. This phase lasts about 7 days, illuminating more until it prepares to rise as a Full Moon.


In Louisville, Kentucky, we had clear skies and easy-to-see stars that illuminated the midnight sky.
