Tonight's crescent moon is surrounded by a blue circle. I noticed it while going outside to move tomorrow's garbage. I then put on my distance glasses and could see a red stripe within the blue. I suspect it is a really high cloud with moisture that is getting sun. We are in Pittsburgh, so it may not appear the same for all.

Cloudy here in Michigan tonight. Just a tiny sliver with a little bit of earthshine last night.

Just can’t see the moon at all here in California. But then again, the sun is still shining.

Sounds like that campaign “O” Obama logo.
Oh my! It’s a sign!
Has anyone else noticed that the revamped Pepsi logo looks like the Obama logo too?

I noticed that last night in Akron, OH. The crescent was very slim, but you could see the entire outline of the moon.
It was cool looking. Maybe I should drag out that telescope.....

The crescent moon, sacred to Muslims, shows an favorable omen, as the first 100 days of Iman Hussein Obama’s long Reign of Terror pass. Allah be praised in his quest to bring down the infidel state, so insane as to make him their leader.

Cloudy here in Colorado - but now I have to go out to see if the moon is visible.

A Muslim symbol warning over the “Red, White and Blue” for these 100 days?? And then a copycat “photo opportunity” terrorizing NY residents - not permitting the public to be advised beforehand?? How blatant can you get?!

Yea, I refuse to drink pepsi because of it.
BTW. Tonight's moon has what you call "Earth shine". The Earth is reflecting sunlight back at the moon.
