Winter Nights Under the Stars

Full Moon
The Full Moon Friday Night, Feb 26, 2021
The moon was full Friday night (actually, early Saturday morning at precisely 3:17 AM EST). This is known as the "Hunger" moon, but sometimes is also called the "Snow" or the "Storm" moon. The reason for the names is due to the amount of snow and ice storms in the middle and northern portion of the county which made hunting difficult, which in turn results in families going hungry, hence, the "Hunger" moon. Taken with the Orion 190mm Maksutov-Newtonian Telescope and the one-shot-color Altair 294c camera
