SuzyView Cream of the Crop More info | Jul 13, 2014 17:11 | #20 That sounds great. We're too close to DC, where the lights are bright as heck all the time. And I live in a rural area. Sad. Suzie - Still Speaking Canonese!

LVMoose Moose gets blamed for everything.  More info | Jul 15, 2014 09:33 | #22 hollis_f wrote in post #17027070  ...(hold a dime at arm's length and it should just cover the Full Moon when it's on the horizon. Then do it again 6 hours later, near midnight, when the Moon is high in the sky - and it is still just covered by the same dime. Actually, the moon should be closer straight overhead, than it is on the horizon. Moose

Just saying that while it appears closer/larger on the horizon, it's actually farther away, not the same distance. Moose
