Here's a report from local astronomy buff Felton Davis… from last night:
A crystal clear night, and the crescent moon was out and over 2nd Avenue shortly after 6 p.m. Later tonight it will pass directly over the planet Saturn — a rare occultation — but not visible from the streets of Manhattan. How high would a person have to be to see this occultation? About 2,548 miles. Let's be grateful for what we can see at street level!
… and Bobby Williams took this photo at 7:42 p.m. from his observatory…
