fly me to the......

It's so cool. Every night, Jackson studies the moon with Dada. They turn out the lights, look out the window, and if they don't see it out the back, they run to the front of the house to look there. Then Jackson runs back to his room and marks off the moon on the calendar.

The other night they saw (not sure if they really saw it, but Jackson said they did), the meteor that went over Brooklyn.

Asteroid YU55
An asteroid the size of an aircraft carrier passed within the moon's orbit Tuesday, the closest approach by an object that large in more than 30 years.

Asteroid 2005 YU55 passed within 202,000 miles of Earth -- about four-fifths of the distance to the moon -- at 6:28 p.m. Tuesday, NASA said.

My mom has had it for years! It's been stored away and she pulled it out when she learned that Jackson likes tigres. I know, I love it! I think it's from the early 70's.
