You probably didn’t realize it, but this is the time of the year for the Perseid Meteor Shower.
However, the new moon is making it difficult, not impossible, to view the spectacular annual nighttime show.
I asked FrankJ whether he could accelerate his plans to Nuke The Moon to resolve this astronomical problem.
His response was a terse: ‘Nuking The Moon is only for peace, not for a better view.”
I shall ponder FrankJ’s wisdom.
Catboy – maybe you could tell Frank that the Perseids are “invading” under the cover of the full moon (stinking Perseids).
Perseids..Persians…??? Frank, get on this one quick!
Laurence – Sorry for the “Catboy” crack.
It’s elementary.
Nuking the Moon will light up the sky even more and further ruin the show.
You should think about nuking the Sun. Stupid sun with its light reflecting off the Moon ruining my light show.
“i dont need drugs to enjoy this, just enhance it.
wouldn’t the new moon make it EASIER to view the meteors?? i imagine it would be better than a full moon.
