NEW EPISODE TOMORROW MORNING -- where are we off to for our long-delayed #asterism for the #constellation #Centaurus?

THE (Galilean) MOONS OF JUPITER!

It'll be a mostly #astronomy focused episode since we've covered the #mythology of Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto in other episodes, but don't worry, we'll recap the #myths for you!

Here's a little trailer for the second half of season 3: Into the Wild: https://starrytimepodcast.podbean.com/e/starry-time-returns-trailer/

💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🌕✨ The #sun is 400 times farther away than the #moon and also 400 times its size. This unlikely coincidence makes them appear nearly identical from #Earth.

This #video shows how #humans see the moon as a god, an artistic symbol, and a stabilizing force across many centuries.

“Some people believe that if code is written well, it is so obvious that no comments are needed. This is a delicious myth, like a rumor that ice cream is good for your health: we’d really like to believe it! Unfortunately, it’s simply not true.”

Itself a delicious quote from John K. Ousterhout, taken from “A Philosophy of Software Design”!

(One of my favorite engineering books, if you’re interested:)

Two book that I own by H S Bellamy - a deep dive into mid-century "fringe" science. Bellamy argues that Earth’s history is defined by "capturing" moons. He claims our current Moon’s arrival ~13,000 years ago caused the sinking of Atlantis and the Great Flood. It’s a wild mix of pseudo-geology and mythology.
