Nude Astronomy

If you enjoy looking up at the stars in the night sky this is for you. This group is for people who like astronomy. Im creating this group to meet people who like astronomy so we can talk about upcoming astronomical events or cool things that we have seen in the past. If you have a telescope and use it great and if you dont have one thats cool too, you can see a couple of planets with the naked...

Do you think it is strange that the Saturn moon, Iapetus, looks so much like the Death Star in the 1st Star Wars movie (circa 1977)... especially since Iapetus was not discovered until many years later (2007) and some of the features on that moon do not look like they were formed by natural processes?

RE: Iapetus

Hmm... I just double checked. there are some similarities between the two moons. Especially the big crater that looks like a portal.

Now that Arthur C. Clarke and Carl Sagan are gone, who do we turn to for inspiration... Richard C. Hoagland?
