Astronomy & Space (Science & Mathematics) - August 2007

Since your so true email about MARS BEING THE SIZE OF THE MOON ONE NIGHT ONLY FOREVER, said that it was going to happen at 1230 am on August the 27. First off that would have been last night not tonight. 2nd its past 1230 PST and MST and about their on CST, so who feels stupid now? Anybody?

More of a statement (two moons and red moon on the 27th)?

I see many questions about the two moons and the red moon tonight. The way I understand it is that the planet Mars will be as close to the earth's orbit as it has been in over 2000 years, and because of this, and Mar's atmosphere, the sun's reflection will actually be bouncing from the sun to MARS, then off of Mars' dense atmosphere to earth. This light "detour" off of Mars will then cause the moon to turn a "blood red" color. But I'm cloudy as crap here so I won't be able to see anything anyway. I even broke out the telescope, apparently for nothing. And as far as the two moons...well it's actually the moon and mars in the sky, but Mars won't be any brighter than Venus is during the summer soltice. It will just look like the brightest STAR in the sky. Courtesy of "Star Hustler" circa 1990, PBS

does our moon travel like a planet?

i remember when i took an astromy class but the teacher was so bad 95% of us dropped it etc.
anyway, i love the subject and i remeber we tracked the location of the moon and it didn't actually revolve around earth
it went in an s pattern adjacent to us
so we are in an eclipse shape and it is behind us or in front of us (or beside us) relative to the sun
Is that true??
