If you have time tonight, take a look at the moon. We noticed a slight halo circumscribing it at 6pm. According to NASA, "Halos form when the sunlight or moonlight is refracted or bent by ice crystals associated with thin-high level clouds, like cirrus or cirrostratus.
Often, a halo around the moon or sun is an indicator of cloudy or rainy weather as high level cirrus and cirrostratus clouds that cause halos tend to drift ahead of frontal systems (especially warm fronts) that produce rainfall."
Hmmm... We prefer to think it's the Artemis' gift to Angelenos for putting up with all the campaign ads. Either way, enjoy the view while it lasts.

The little orange spot below the moon? That's Mars.
Look up at the sky at random times and you will notice white lines from time to time. These white lines are not condensation trails which dissapate within minutes behind a passing plane. They are chemical trails sprayed by planes that are government owned. There are many speculations as to what they are up to; they range from weather modification to research on the affects of active biological agents on the population. Personally I trust our federal government and don't care what they are doing in the skies, however I have noticed that after a day of heavy spraying in the skies the moon often has a halo.
