Thread inspired by a Mak post.

There are so many Laws realting astromomy such as kuipers laws of platerary motion but most of these are vairients of murphy's law: if something can go wrong. it will.

If it isn't raining it's cloudy, if it isn't raining or cloudy it will be full moon if it isn't raining cloady or full moon you have to work/go to school tommorow.

If it's clear all day it will be cloudy at night.

Arrivial of a new scope or acessory will coinside with the most consecutive days of rain since the last item you purchaced.

The only time you will ever catch an irridum flare in a scope will be after sitting with a bag on your head for 30 minutes to get dark adapted enough to see the Horsehead Nebula

Whatever that is in the bushes behind you only moves when you look in the eyepiece.

The best meteor of the shower passes through the frame while you're winding the film for the next shot.
