[QUOTE=carcarcargo;28545060]Since this is just the ramblings of an astrologer, I'm not worried what so ever, especially after scientists said that it won't do anything.[/QUOTE]
Reptilian agent.
Im not worried, Besides, It would be rare to see something like this, So sit back and enjoy it.

No they won't, because nothing is going to happen.

[QUOTE=porn;28543624]One Scientist says so IT MUST BE TRUE.[/QUOTE]
An astrologer is not in any way a scientist.
[QUOTE=SNNS-SEAN;28540351]Well, I don't have any moons to post pictures of to refer to video games.
But no, it will not cause disaster. If it's gonna be closest since 18 years ago, it will only be cool if it means seeing a bigger moon. The moon in central Texas is small as hell.
And I forgot to mention, I want to blow up the moon and replace it with a giant orbital KFC. Why would anyone want to look at that moon when you could have THIS in the night sky?

Why blow up the moon when you can just engrave it!

Let me spell this out for you. Read very carefully. An ASTROLOGER is someone who writes horoscopes. Aquarius, Sagittarius, and we all get brain Cancer reading that bollocks.
An ASTRONOMER is a scientist who studies space.
You people don't understand the gravity of the situation!
No doubt this astrologer will try to use the Japanese Earthquake/Tsunami as leverage for his argument :tinfoil:
[QUOTE=article]On March 19, the moon will swing around Earth more closely than it has in the past 18 years, lighting up the night sky from just 221,567 miles (356,577 kilometers) away. [b]On top of that, it will be full.[/b][/QUOTE]
Uh, this wouldn't make a difference.
I can just imaging Kim Jon Il thinking 'Yes, i will destroy Worst Korea by launching the moon on them ! HAHAHAHAAHA !*evil laugh*'
[QUOTE=Bicuits;28553636]Uh, this wouldn't make a difference.[/QUOTE]
No, the moon actually loses and gains mass during its cycle. When you see a half moon, half of its mass has actually vanished from out universe.
Damned reptilians!
Well this is just stupid isn't it, the moon ain't just suddenly going to become bigger on the 19th, it's already bigger than it's been in a while, it's just going to reach a peak on the 19th, when it's also a full moon (which is irrelevant for anything but a spectacular view).
[QUOTE=27X;28538366]sigh.[/QUOTE]
This is what Scientology want you to believe. Good for 1000th post. Or not.
And listening to happy music to make this topic more happy when bad events happen around the world.
the super moon will cause all the water to rise out of the oceans and fall onto the moon
trust me
[QUOTE=VaSTinY;28542698]So how huge will it look viewed from the ground?
I remember a few years ago during the night of a summer it was pretty huge ass with a red-hue[/QUOTE]
Anyone?
Astrology =/= Astronomy.
I hate the fact that those two words are so damn similar.
Also I though the moon was getting further away from the Earth? Like 1cm per year?

It goes both ways because the orbit isn't completely fixed, but on average it is moving further away.
No it will not. There may be another few inches during low tide and high tide differences, but not natural disaster changes.
"On top of that it will be full"? How does that have any relevance? Does this person not know that the dark part of the moon is a shadow from Earth? It would have the EXACT same effect (Hint: there would be no effect) if it were at it's most shadowed.

You do realize that the dark part of the moon is actually the side of it where the sun doesn't shine, and not the shadow from the earth, right?
[editline]12th March 2011[/editline]
Of course though, it still wouldn't matter if it was full or not, but arguing against stupidity with stupidity will only put fuel on the fire for the opposing argument.

lunar eclipse is earth shadow though.
I thought this was going to be a scientific article about the moon's gravitational pull being too much at that distance or something, but a sentence in I read "astrology" and realized this is utter bullshit.
[QUOTE=Big Ben;28565857]I've been lied to for years upon years? :saddowns:[/QUOTE]
As Canary said, a lunar eclipse would be the Earth's shadow covering the moon.
That actually happened not so long ago.
Unless of course the Earth is actually flat and could cast a shadow like this:

[QUOTE=Contag;28540353]That's because the affected areas were replaced with a holograph, and the injured/dead people were replaced with reptilians.

Oh, that makes sense then
I live about 100 yards from the Bay that separates the barrier islands from the Florida Panhandle, will be interesting to see if the water comes over Highway 98 during high tide, High Tide is just after midnight on the 19th here, and they say it's only going to raise about 0.39 Feet... that's not anything special at all, it was higher than that the other day

[/QUOTE]
I hope he doesn't realize that, because then he'd be wrong. The dark side of the moon is the side that is permanently facing away from Earth.
