the #moon - how it really happened #truestory 🌝 #moonthings
#fullmoon is never not nice ⁠(⁠˘⁠⌣⁠˘⁠ β )

Full moon is nice if that happens to be what you want to watch in the night sky. If you want to watch something else, something not very bright, full moon can be rather not-nice indeed.

Tiny Asteroid Will Briefly Become Earth’s Mini Moon

A small asteroid, 2024 PT5, will spend the next two months alongside our planet as a mini moon before swooping back to deep space

lol it's a bit funny how this post is being re-discovered every four weeks or so  πŸŒ
@Heliograph If only there where a word for it -- moon? moonty? moontly? -- monthmy? monthly?
Monthly! That's it, monthly!
@amro hahaha what a coincidence there's a word! πŸ€ͺ
there's a #supermoon currently rising out there and lordy it's big 🌝

@Heliograph gotta love the moon illusion!

It blows my mind every time

@Heliograph could be true!!!😊
@Computeforloot in some mirror universe it definitely is true πŸ™ƒ
@Heliograph I’ve read less-credible theories.

@Heliograph this is so adorable that I went looking to see if it was available on a shirt. It is!

@Heliograph am I the only one who counted the moons of Jupiter and got disappointed?
@Heliograph but the number of strings is the same...
@martin_piper it's the doppler effect 
@Heliograph that would be frequency change not number of lines...
@martin_piper you have to tilt your head to the left while looking then it works >.< (*also cross your eyes)
@Heliograph Kinda skips over the part where the moon hit Earth right in the face, but yes!
@Heliograph thank you for the reminder that I should re-read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Moon's_a_Balloon
The Moon's a Balloon - Wikipedia

@Heliograph so, moon was stolen from Jupiter?
@Heliograph I love the sweet nature
@Heliograph More likely: I hit you with a planet, so you spit out a moon.
@Heliograph Kids love it, thanks for forwarding
@Heliograph This is why the Lunar Excursion Module had round-bottomed feet instead of sharp points.
@Heliograph So Jupiter used to have 93 moons...? Than it's only fair to give one away.
