For just a few moments tonight the sky cleared enough to get a photo of the crescent moon in all it's glory. For something that is 238,855 miles (384,400 km) away I find it crazy that we can pick up such detail with a simple phone camera & a tripod. Fun facts about the moon: 1)You can fit all the planets in our solar system lined up between the earth & the moon. 2)It is likely that there are fragments of dinosaur bones on the moon caused by them being flung into space from the asteroid impact, beating mankind to the moon by about 66 million years. 3)The dark side of the moon is not a literal dark side but is so name because it is not viewable to us, the moon orbits the earth with one side always facing us & the only way to view the opposite side is by passing the moon which also creates a communication blindspot. 4)The moon does affect the tides on Earth but they do not "rise & fall" the sun & moon create 2 bulges on either side of the Earth & the planet rotates within those ocean bulges. The water stays the same it is the Earth 🌎 that moves. 🤪
