Hello List, I want to ask a weird question. I can't give an exact date, all
I can tell you is it was in April or may of this year on a week day. At
about 2:30 or 3:00 in the afternoon in Chandler AZ, I was waiting for my
wife and child to get out of school (wife was an aid). I was sitting in my
car and there was teachers and students everywhere. For a split second the
hole area got darker like we were in a big shadow. It was like a large dark
cloud passed over. I noticed a couple of the adults look up to see what
caused this thing, Maybe a plane, a bird, Heck, maybe even superman! But
there was nothing at all in the sky that could of caused this.
Tonight, I was out looking at the moon with my telescope when a plane
eclipsed the moon(I like it when that happens). Well, it got me thinking of
how neat it would be if a large asteroid eclipsed the moon while I was
looking.Thinking of what it might be like if that happened. It reminded me
of that after noon in Chandler. Could something in space cross in front of
the sun and cause this?

Thanks, Tom
