Put this on your “TO DO” list for tomorrow evening. Let’s hope we have clear skies.

Hi Don:
If this illusion can be seen from Panama, I will certainly be on the lookout tomorrow evening. I haven’t seen this optical illusion before. Sounds like fun.
Thanks for the tip.

I just hope for a clear night, but my expectations, for that happening, are not too great.
Seems to me this phenomenon has to do with latitude ( and doesn´t apply to Panama) but, like Omar, I´ll be on the lookout tomorrow. Thanks for the info.
I really don’t know. I looked at several articles and did see anything that reflected that the latitude would affect it. Being closer to the equator, I would think that it could be greater. We will see, provided we can see.
