not quite a full moon  

full moon  

Saturn  

Mars If you can see a tiny white spot on the top Mars it is the polar ice cap.  

Jupiter The next three pictures are planets. They are not very good pictures because our atmosphere makes it hard to photograph them. But I will keep trying.  

The Orion nebula  This is a huge area of gases and dust. So huge that stars are born here. These types of nebula are stellar nurseries.
