It’s a Holy Moly Christmas!

Posted on December 18, 2015January 19, 2016 by CSB

IMG_2008It was time to take the two- and four-year-old girls for a little drive-by Christmas light viewing. The girls were in their carseats, oohing and aahhing over golden icicles, inflated snowmen and elves, multicolored lights cascading on evergreens.

Suddenly, the four-year-old looked out her window at someA little girl smiles through lit Advent candles with a bright Christmas tree shining behind her and a lit nativity carousal next to her. special wonders and yells: “Holy Moly!”

The two-year-old excitedly responds: “There’s a Holy Moly on my side too!”

If you need a breather from all the holiday rush, you could do no better than spending time viewing the Hubble Spacecraft’s snippets of our universe. These are some special Holy Molys! Here is a sample below with the link at: http://hubblesite.org/gallery/album/

A sharp black and white image captures Saturn and its rings--an Angel's pearl.

Each of these sparkling lights in the above photo are galaxies. If you went outside and  held a sewing needle up to the sky, the amount of space you saw through the needle is what this photo captured.
