There wasn’t a cloud in the sky. The moon seemed closer and bigger than I’d ever seen it. And when Earth’s shadow darkened the moon, you could see what appeared to be billions of stars, in the area just around the moon’s outline. It looked like a Hubble Telescope deep-space photo, where the stars appear to go on forever.
