Moon Phases Over a Year in 2.5 Minutes

[KG4CGC]

Kewl. I'd heard that the Moon had a rocking motion, but I didn't realize how much until now. You can see a bit over half of the Moon's surface because of that. I heard that it might have started because of an asteroid hit a few millenia ago.

If that's the case then is was also the perfect accident.

No, no. The perfect accident was the Fajita beer at Appleby's. Am I correct?

I should be up that way in a month or two..... FAJITA !!!!!!

So it might be. It is also perfect that the moon rotates once a month so the same side always faces us and that the moon is at the right orbit to look as if it is the same size as the sun. If it were even slightly further away, total eclipses would not happen, they'd all be annular.
