ah shit, now I’ll have to go back to earth to see this
It is pretty sick how the sun and moon just happen to seem the same size from the surface. Nowhere else has the magic of eclipses like Earth.
It’s also a now thing. The non avian dinosaurs didn’t have them either
They had eclipses. It just wasn’t close to the same size.
Plenty of other places have it, and even more would have moons that take up a larger field of view than their star. The universe is so large it’s not like it would be unique to earth.
OK you ‘Ackshually…’ ass nerd, give us names and coords so we can portal there and see a better eclipse that you claim isn’t special!
SMH my head, kids these days…
Ahem…
gonna use this as an opportunity to educate:
You can tell the time by what shape the moon is and its position in the sky, e.g. a full moon in the northern hemisphere rises at ~18:00 and is highest in the sky at midnight.
This is why the moon is generally associated with nighttime, the blatantly obvious phase is only above the horizon at night, while the basically invisible phase is only up during the day.From wikipedia, focus on the illustrations and the average moonrise and moonset times.
That’s it, I’m calling Kash
The moon is also visible during most days though…
Not during the full moon though
The new moon and full moon do not comprise the majority of days. (although you can still see a new moon during the day with a clear atmosphere)
The moon killed my parents.
Sorry bud, Git Gud
Are you a character from Moonfall?
Seveneves actually
When will I be able to see the Earth?
Don’t forget it will be visible from the Moon Next Night
And day.
Except for the dark side of the moon.
While it isn’t always dark there you won’t see the earth.
you need to come back to earth to see it, not in the vacumm of the space
Bro how can anyone see in a vacuum, it has to be dark in the bag where they deposit the waste
…Duuuude!
FFS WHY TF DIDN’T ANYONE TELL ME I HATE YOU ALL
But it’s a Royal Blue Indian Harvest Blood Moon you really want to get up in the middle of the night for that
Looks identical to the moon you see everyday
tonight is the night
If you are affraid, we will look together
