Solstice Moon Illusion Tonight!
Wednesday night, June 18th, step outside at sunset and look around. You'll see a giant form rising in the east. At first glance it looks like the full Moon. It has craters and seas and the face of a man, but this "moon" is strangely infl ated. It's huge! You've just experienced the Moon Illusion. NASA |

Dudettes! I went outside and hung around with some neighbors loitering for a while, told them about the moon tonight (they must think I'm on something), but it's so cloudly that we can't see any moon at all. : (

Waited until 9:45 p.m. for the moon too, and nothing showed. Bummer... it is kind of cloudy though.
Re: Solstice Moon Illusion Tonight!
It was too cloudy to see anything here too..

Re: Solstice Moon Illusion Tonight!
Oh man, I'm so glad you guys posted this. We went down the street to watch it come up where there were no trees. I kid you not it was HUGE looking. It started out almost a magenta pink and then went to orange, then to yellow and finally back to white. My son was amazed!
