That's so trippy!!! The way it rolls back and forth. It's just this big scary rock, you guys. I love it.

Yeah, that is awesome!

Looks like a cantaloupe

Nah, it's not Triton.
In fact, I don't think there are any fusion hulks on our moon at all.

I think the looping of the animation could be a little smoother, but otherwise cool.

Smoother? I guess it could easily be if one shot was taken every day for a whole year. Or is this a half a year? No... I forget how moon works. I don't outsmart moon.

No I meant the looping. There isn't enough time where it's totally black -- so it feels like a looping animation instead of anything more.

And the phases of the moon together are a little longer than a month, I think.
Months were originally based on the phases of the moon; but you knew that. Then it was changed so that the months would fit more neatly into a year.

Shorter than a month, hence why we* had a blue moon, a second full moon in one month, just last month.

* Depending on where you live, your mileage may vary.

Libration is cool, yo.

Moon fact: You could make 141.4 states the size of Texas on the moon's surface or one huge state the size of the moon.

The cool thing I learned from that article that I hadn't before is that Earth actually has a "Trojan" asteroid at L4. Holy crap do we need a base set up on it.

HOWL AT THE MOOOOOON!!!!!

Do foxes howl? Or just alter-foxes?

Nah I was referencing this: http://soundcloud.com/snowfoxden/full-moon

.
Go ahead call me vain but I'm really proud of that song and I'm so bizzare I'm admitting it.

Foxes don't howl. Sometimes we caw... or wail which is pretty cool contrary to some opinions.

In the sky... how many times? The world may never know. x_x I can tell you how many times it was possible for me to see it though. ^_~ but that's probably a bit too pedantic. =P
