He’s learning that he needs to be careful with her about what time of the month it is.
I watched a stream of the eclipse earlier this month which had a feed of viewer questions.
- Is it a coincidence that it’s also new moon on the same day as the eclipse?
- How can the moon cover the sun when it a new moon?
- In which direction should we watch?
Around the north American eclipse in 2024 I learned that it’s purely by complete chance that the sun and moon appear the same size from an observer on earth.
That’s fucking wild if you really think about it.
Yeah, it makes me wonder if there’s some mathematical balance about it that we just can’t prove.
It does seem logical. If the moon was bigger, would it have an orbit further out? If the sun was bigger, would Earth have an orbit further out?
Perhaps it just lines up that way. The other planets have more or no moons so there’s nothing comparable elsewhere in this solar system.
It legit never occurred to me before this eclipse
don’t they teach this in schools?
How can the moon cover the sun when it
a new moonis so damn small compared to the sun?
ohhh because a “new moon” is a moon in it’s first phase, where it’s directly between the sun and the earth, making it “invisible.” I get it!
…but if the girlfriend moon is in that phase, then wouldn’t the boyfriend moon, which is directly next to her, also be in nearly the same phase?
That’s rough buddy
Looked like stars and the black hole.
