Astronomers Hate the Moon and Want To Destroy It
Metro | October 12, 2023 | Katherine Fidler

Astronomers want it gone.

Not all astronomers, but some.

Why? Because it’s too bright. While for many of us a full Moon is a striking addition to the night sky, for astronomers the bright light is a blinding one.

‘I hate the Moon,’ says Dr Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

[where he studies astrophysics]

‘The Moon is evil, because we complain about how bright all these new satellites are, but the Moon is the brightest satellite of the Earth by far.’

Don’t tell me he thinks he’s just made a startling discovery.

“Evil”? Really?

So he can’t put on his Big Bang underwear and study the sky while taking it into account like everyone has before him? Unlike the moon, not too bright.
