EXTREME SUPER FULL MOON: THIS LOOKS REALLY SERIOUS


Destaque para a coluna semanal What's New de Robert Park, o físico que se tem distinuido em apontar o dedo a erros e disparates:

If you’re a space alien from the planet Mongo, that is. According to the Astronomy Weather Blog, on March 19 (that's a week from tomorrow) the moon will make its closest approach to Earth in 18 years. Talk about trouble. A new or full Moon at 90% or greater of its closest perigee to Earth has been named an Extreme Super Moon by astrologer Richard Nolle. This occurs when the moon is full, or new, and at its 100% greater mean perigee distance to Earth (if I got that right). The last time was on January 10, 2005 around the time of the 9.0 Indonesia earthquake. What's New explained it here . The disaster claimed more than 150,000 innocent lives. "Innocent"? Buddhists explained that seemingly innocent victims could be paying for some really bad stuff they did in previous lives. A leading Muslim cleric in Southern California says it was, "a test from God to see how human beings respond." Columnist and pretentious theologian William Safire also saw the 2005 tsunami as a test, and compared it to God' s test of Job.
