Cool Astronomy event this past week

While I didn't take this picture, I'm uploading it to illustrate this really cool event this past week. A friend of mine at work mentioned this event has happened in 2000 years. I only wish I lived in a rural area without any light pollution to really enjoy seeing this with a pair of decent binoculars or a long 500mm lens.

Can you imagine seeing Jupiter's moons? There's still plenty of interesting things to see in our own solar system much less our Galaxy or the entire universe. It simply makes you stand in awe of our existence!
