Hi, guys!!..... :3

[blackneos940]

How are you today.....? I'm fine, I guess....... I'm looking forward to the Blood Moon this Sunday (unless, of course, it Rains, or is Cloudy, as it always does/is for Celestial phenomenons)..... Hey, wanna post Pictures, if we can get 'em.....? That'd be great!!..... ^^ Also, and this is completely out of nowhere, (it's how I roll), but how is it that whenever I do never mind, I found out what went wrong..... :3 Python takes %s for both Strings, AND Numbers....... But what is %d used for, I wonder......?

I've said it before: I'm not a programmer. But I think the answer to your Python question is that "strings can contain numbers, but numbers can't contain letters." The %d is to hold an integer (decimal). Here's the link that I found:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4288973/s-and-d-python

I hope the skies here will clear up tonight too. Will post a pic of the lunar eclipse if I can get one, but right now isn't looking very good.

Cheers!

Thanks, good sir!..... :3 I tried looking up %d, but all I got were other things..... Maybe % isn't good for Search Results.....? Ah, so it was cruddy where you are, too...... Figures..... D: Thank God for NASA and SLOOH Live Streams though!!..... ^^ It wasn't quite the same, but it was certainly cool to see..... ESPECIALLY from different Continents' perspectives!!..... ^^ Also, I'll check out the Link..... Thanks!!....... ^^

Yes, the skies were too cloudy here to see much, but I did find many nice photos that other folks were able to get. I'm using a couple of those now for wallpaper on my phone and home desktop.

I used to live under fairly dark skies and very much enjoy watching astronomical events. I've been lucky to see the Northern Lights several times here in Indiana, and those have been a real thrill for me.

If you're also interested in astronomy, you might like the (free) program called Stellarium. They make a version for all operating systems. Here's their website:

Cheers!
