THE MOON


Moon and Mars were close together again tonight.
 
LOL, a friend posted a similar photo on Facebook, but Mars is less than one Lunar diameter from the Moon in his photo. At first I thought, "dang, I missed the closest pass!", but then I looked closer and did some research. They didn't get much closer than in this photo in the States, and he would have to have been in South America to get his shot, so he just stuck a dot on it. The Moon appears to the eye a lot larger because psychology or whatever, so it would be easy to put mars much closer, if you depended on memory. But I opted not to point that out to him on FB, as it might have started a war :bom:
 
My brother told be to go out and shoot 2020 Halloween's blue moon. Here's what he got.
