I have four daughters. Each one is different. My second daughter, Becky, never misses these astronomical events with me. We will be watching them together. It is one of our THINGS.

That is really nice. It brings back a memory of my Dad and I watching eclipses together, as well as him taking me out in the back yard late at night and watching the very reflective Echo 1 Satellite go across the night sky. He was also able to bring home a piece of the Echo 1 material and dared me to rip it in half. (He worked at bell labs)

I did get to see a Shuttle launch back in 2000. He would have loved that!

Becky will remember this forever! :-)

That’s very sweet. Those are the moments she will cherish more than any Disney vacay or extravagant birthday presents.
