Halloween Moon

I know it's a little past due, but I came across this picture from the CIMSS Satellite Blog the other day of the crescent moon on Halloween night caught by GOES-13 (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite).  The satellite image shows a band of clouds moving over the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia.  Pretty cool!  It turns out that it's not as rare as one might think for the moon to show up on a GOES image.

Now I have the Dave Matthews Band song "Satellite" stuck in my head! :)
