Be sure to watch the Super Full moon this weekend

[heisenberg]

This saturday 19th of March, the moon is going to be the biggest it's been since 1983 . It would be worth checking it out, if you are a lover of astronomy like I am.

Thanks for the tip, Heisenberg!

Unfortunately the article doesn't mention whether this is strictly a US-North American phenomenon or valid all over the globe...

On a related note, I am just in disgust to the number of idiots who thought the earthquake in japan was caused by the supermoon. Morons!


Anyway,I rekcon the best view will be to see it at the beach, the Depth of view and viewing angle will be the best. I can't wait, sunny skies all this weekend

People always seem to be looking for some outside force to be responsible for stuff. In lieu of that, they blame Deity for whatever happened.

I was listening to a bunch of folks on ventrilo last night, that were under the impression they "Nuked" themselves. Some people just don't research...no..no...wait...

Some people are just stupid.

I vote for the "harmonic convergence" that occured in 1987, if it wasn't that I say blame it on chiuauas..they all tooted at the same time!

Hey, don't be blaming Chihuahuas. I have it on good authority that it was sunspots!

Impossible. It's obvious that the ones behind it are heinous reindeers in collusion with those dastardly parakeets. First they'll take Japan, then the world!

Evil budgies? Horrors!

I just went outside and wow! I don't think I've ever seen the moon this bright before.

I'll be out there tomorrow night at dusk with my camera, tripod and remote, working to get decent shots.

Wish me luck. If I get them, I'll post a link here
