No chance but it'll be worth a look

It was huge last night too.

I love looking at the moon :love:

I love the Moon too, it's very mysterious. Seriously, I find it interesting how it controls the tides and stuff.

this!

I'm so excited, I'm going out tonight aswell

Yeah i'm a bit of a nerd when it comes to lunar events :joker:

Hopefully the skies clear up by tonight.

I dont think Ive ever seen it yet :suspect:

Apparantely last time we had one the Japan earthquake/tsunami happened :shocked:

Love the moon. :love: Massive and stunning at even a half glance last night, too.

Extreme super moon...Beware everyone :devil:

:amazed:


I was expecting this thread have a big naked ass or something :suspect:

Its not too late if you wanna get the camera out :evilgrin:

Oh ****..better run

During this week's perigee - the closest point of orbit - the moon will be 221,801 miles from Earth.

The close approach will happen within minutes of the official full moon phase at 4.35am BST.

The moon line up with the Earth and the sun makes it appear brilliantly full.


:conf2:

Gravitational pull if my old schoolgirl memory serves me right. the young smart ones on here will keep me right I'm sure! It is quite awesome how all it all works.


Should be interesting to have a look outside tonight, see if the camera can pick up any half decent pics.

:devil:

No no no... it's the extreme super moon cups that everyone needs to beware of !

:D

That is correct Pyra :pipe:

British Summer Time

Lol. I was referring to the time. (Maybe it wasn't the best smiley to use).

The perigee full moon is likely to cause higher tides as it reaches its closest pint to the earth....

...Does anyone remember the last total eclipse...?..it felt like world was still

The moon likes a wee tipple now and then, just to quench it's thirst on it's journey.
