Just before I went to bed last Friday, I caught site of the moon setting in the southwestern sky. I grabbed my camera and took a few shots. This was the best of the group. With the moon so low in the sky, it had taken on a yellow glow. I asked Google what phase it was in on Friday and learned that it was a "waxing crescent".
Looking at it makes me a bit jealous of those brave astronauts who recently made the trip around the back of the moon. What an adventure that was.
