Silly Site o' the Day

I actually left the house twice today, unheard of for me in this pandemic. I did my early morning round-the-block walk which I think did me a world of good, and took a long lunch hour to head to the local hospital and get long-awaited bloodwork done. I had to park a few blocks away, and I'm glad Robin was with me as the walk wasn't difficult but the pedestrians were - about half of them didn't wear masks properly or at all. Next week I go for an eye exam a bit closer to home, that'll just involve a short local bus trip or two and most of the folks around here seem to know how to mask up. But enough about that. Did you know there's an Atlas of Moons (via BoingBoing)? When I was growing up Jupiter had 12 moons, period. Now our solar system hosts over 200 known moons. This will be a great resource every time I feel I can't keep up.
