Well where I live at the time of writing this it is 4:19 am. When it is summer twilight starts before 4am. So currently it is Astronomical Twilight at the time of writing this. Nautical twilight starts at 4:33 today. Civil Twilight starts at 5:16. Then twilight ends with a pretty sunrise at 5:49. Although it is Astronomical Twilight it still appears nighttime now. I see a crescent moon rising in the east, and I wonder if I'll get it in my time lapse. Probably not, but we'll see. I see the stars, and it is so cool. I don't know if I had my eyes playing tricks on me, but I think I also saw a meteor. I also saw the ISS (International Space Station) go by at about 4am. The crescent moon I saw is a waning crescent. If it were a waxing crescent, it would rise after the sun did. I hear a raccoon, and I saw a deer. The crescent moon looks like a croissant. Hence why croissant gets its name. Croissant translates to ''Crescent'' in English. I like them. Croissants are delicious. It appears Nautical twilight is about to start. My camera on my tablet doesn't start to pick it up until 4:50ish. Then it really picks it up fast. It starts bluish then appears in the video to recede and then turn from bluish to aqua colors and it is fantastic. It is starting in just 1 minute now. It's now 4:32. Damn it my 430 alarm ruined it and went off. Whoops. I hope I didn't wake the neighbors. Now it is nautical twilight.
