radar Our Beautiful, Wet Blue Moon in the News



Quote:
Halloween will be the first blue moon visible in every time zone since 1944. Might be good to charge those crystals!

The moon remains, perpetually and since antiquity, a source of cultural wonder. Last week, when https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/n...lts-about-moon that it would reveal “an exciting new discovery” about the moon in a matter of days, the internet, thirsty for distraction, went wild speculating about it. (It happened to be exciting news for space scientists —water and ice on the moon https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/26/s...ice-water.html than previously thought — but not the supernatural or extraterrestrial news many yearned for.)

Moon updates have been plentiful this year. In August, scientists reported they had https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/15/s...sers-dust.html that was gliding over the moon’s surface at thousands of miles per hour in order to measure distance between our moon and planet. (It worked.) In February, two astronomers discovered a https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/27/s...oon-earth.html orbiting Earth.

No it's an EEE (earth Extinction Event) when it slams into the earth, but don't worry this will not effect Christmas.

Get well my friend. Drink plenty of fluids and take supplements if you need to and plenty of rest so it fixes itself.

All the best, Reece.

Drink a couple of glasses of whiskey so that it clears out at the same time as you sweat out any Australian bacteria, I guess the heat is with you now or is on the way. Sore ass....it may indicate otherwise.
