Unless I missed it, I didn’t see a thread on this. Tonight is [Manhattanhenge](http://www.haydenplanetarium.org/resources/starstruck/manhattanhenge). Half-sun tonight, full sun tomorrow. I was at 34th and 6th last night at sunset, and it was spectacular! Definitely worth checking out. ---

Further East the better to get the impact. Unless the cloud cover changes in the next 10 minutes it’s a no-see. There’s another chance tomorrow. For those who don’t know what we a re talking about there is this: > **[Hayden Planetarium: Space Theater | AMNH](https://www.amnh.org/research/hayden-planetarium)** > > Explore the universe in the 429-seat Space Theater, which launches you into an astonishingly realistic simulation of the cosmos.
