Not since 1948 will the moon be bigger in the sky - All the astronomers will be out with their long telescopes looking up.

I feel that something really,really BIG!!! is going to happen during this SUPERMOON...On either Mon,Tue,Wed or Thu,I feel that I'm finally going to meet 'HER
 '.She will be The Dream whose love will make all of my other dreams come true.I feel this in My Blood,My Tears and My Sperm. |

most of the material that went into orbit to form the moon was thought to come from THEIA(that's the planet that wacked the earth)
but neil Armstrong knocked that idea for six with his lunar rocks samples.Califonia institude of technology announced that there was less that 1% chance that THEIA and Earth had identical isotopic signatures. Neils lunar samples showed that the rocks from the moon had the same composition as rocks found on earth which conflicts with what is expected.  |

Very interesting.Thanks for that brassneck.

we will need to get some pics up
 just hope no cloud  |

Cosmic, can't wait.

Can I ask the OP what Jupiter entering Virgo has to do with his thread title?
|

By:
Not one theory on the moon formation now? They had three theories before they went to the moon. Moon rocks rules those out. Then they re-examined the rocks for the new theory a couple of years ago as Brassneck said and that theory went south too. If you try to look up moon formation though, you'll still find the Theia theory on websites? It's only in the last 5000 years? that you get the eclipse affect with the wedding ring. Because the distance is just perfect to cover the sun, just so.

What is your theory?
A god made it? Which one? Why does the Moon move 2.5cm away from the Earth each year? Why didn't a god make it perfect? Zorro, you clutch at straws and take the straws you like and discard the rest. That's not how science works. |

Wasn't there a thread on Chit Chat recently saying the moon landings were a hoax? Shurely shome mishtake |

By:
Oh yes, it was Brassneck's thread

this is brassnecks theory.the earth and the moon formed at the same time,both revolved around each other,but something happened our sister planet and it got stripped of all the earth has today.it then got locked in our orbit .remember the moon has an iron center.it would not have one had it being a lump of our earth ,the fact that the moon has the same isotopic composition as earth proves to me that the moon could not have come from another part of the solar system because the isotobes of all other bodies in the solar system are different than earths isotopic signature.so the only answer is that the moon as it is today was once an earth like ours.
brassnecks theory=some day they will believe me. |

By:
in fact I will go further with my theory and state that the moon and the earth at one time long ago were identical but one developed an ozone layer while the other got stripped of its layers or outer shells.

Is it true or a modern day myth that there is more violent crime during a full moon?

HARVEST MOON not been this close since 1948 (Israel became a nation)
remember the STRAWBERRY MOON, in June. They said it hasn't been seen since 1967, then before that 1948. Anyone with history knowledge will tell you in 1967 Israel had the six day war and regained Jerusalem. In 1948 Israel became a nation. For the next nine months Jupiter(the kingmaker star) will remain in virgo. exactly nine months from now it leaves Virgo. the twelve stars are above Virgos head and in nine months time the moon is at her feet. Star map program(stellarium)is freeware. This assembly of improbable conjunctions never repeats it's a one time event. the program lets you go back in time and forward, thousands of years. book of revelation - Then I witnessed in heaven an event of great significance. I saw a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon beneath her feet, and a crown of twelve stars on her head. Good night Vienna. boarding time soon. |

At it's closest the Moon is only 13% bigger than when it's at its furthest. If you put your thumb out at arms length you can cover the Moon's disc. That's how small it actually is in the sky whether a SuperMoon or not. All this Supermoon nonsense is just to drag the uneducated into starting threads about such topics.

if you put your wife's head in front of the night sky? you can blot out a 100 billion stars... simplification is great. what's football about? 22 guys with a ball. food.. it all comes out brown. exercise... why bother. |

Looked stunning tonight.

By:
all these years looks i've been duped , i was thinking to myself last night that if the earth was a football , the moon must be like 30ft away at a guess.
and yet looking at diagrams it always looked like the moon was about 3 ft away from the football . 240,000 miles away ,earth diameter is only 13,000 miles - so almost 20 times the length |

I should explain the picture in case you weren't sure.
You can fit every single planet in between the Earth and the moon, with room to spare. |

What about Nibiru?
|

By:
No moon here
|

By:
Been out twice already. Nothing to see yet.
|
|
By:
I've seen it, just looks like any other full moon. 13% is only noticeable when compared in side by side pictures.

live moon watch - youtube

Been looking at the direction of my window for hours now and I still can't see no supermoon, but then I wouldn't, the curtains are still drawn
|
|
By:
Just had a look..... It's quite clear here. The Moon looks very bright, but it doesn't look especially large to me
|
|
By:
been out, up coast to Amble ,got some snaps and then clouded up
|
|
By:
No moon here either, think the cheese moon mouse has eaten it
 |
|
By:
looks quite like any other moon .
however ,i like the giant moon that is very low in the sky above the rooftops. ja ja - incredible how the moon can suddenly get so near earth during that time - a marvel of science . |

By:
i was told the moon landings were undertaken during such a time when the moon was something like 300 miles away .
couldn't have landed any other time . so much knowledge to pick up on the internet |
