  • When the Full Moon coincides with its closest approach to Earth, we get a "Supermoon' also known as the Perigee Full Moon. The full Moon appeared about 14% larger and 30% brighter than others on May 5, 2012.

    Some months ago I literally saw a huge moon, I was feeling like the moon is coming down.
    It was beautiful. Very beautiful.
    That time I didn't know something like this even exist.
    I was in my roof. And I called my dad, as soon as he came the moon is hidden behind the clouds.
    I was feeling like that was my Grandma, visiting me.
    Her name's meaning was shining of moon.
    Idk it was a special moment. And only I saw that moment. Whenever I called my dad, in some second it hid behind clouds.

    I remember when I was little (around 7) I say a super moon "hanging" over our villa in Pavel Bania... It was HUGE and it a brilliant blue (as far as I could remember)... It looked as if it was going to drop on me and my family (my grandma only to be exact) any second.

    I saw a super moon like in 2007 or 2006 in Arizona, can't really remember the year but it was AMAZING! I hope I can see another one again.

    Mountains forming a horizon seen from across a valley or plain often appear to be somehow closer in spatial distance than in journey time, and I wonder if that might be an example of the same effect. I say effect rather than illusion since the magnification could be a neurological adaptation, a kind of useful internal telescope that helps us move about on the planet but only incidentally applies to the moon as well.

    this evening for the first maybe 10 minutes the moon over TX was a light red moon then quickly changed to yellow and stayed yellow for awhile may 5th at sunset

  • @WhatThyFunk
    @WhatThyFunk Před 11 lety

    Trust me. It's normal and alway revolves at an angle back and forth as the axis to earth is tilted and makes it seem that way. Really, you are the only one moving to the side.

  • @WhatThyFunk
    @WhatThyFunk Před 11 lety

    The general population would see it being 'Bigger' rather than taking a second and making sense of it just being closer due to it's egg-like shaped orbit.

    @AMBIENCE8209 Před 12 lety

    One thing is a concern is that gravitation from the moon can cause earthquakes, the moon was closer to the earth in 2011 than in 2010, have 2 check how much closer its got this year. look at last year with the japan earthquake/tsunami gravitational force from the moon Along with the other seizmec activity likely caused this.

  • @Futurist2029
    @Futurist2029 Před 12 lety

    I thought the enlarged appearance of the moon near the horizon was due to the way we perceive light through our atmosphere (our atmosphere acts like a magnifying glass)... for example, distant stars appear brighter when viewed from the Earth's surface because of the way our atmosphere magnifies the intensity of the incoming light, but those same stars appear more dull when viewed from space. Perhaps I'm over thinking...

    @VideoFromSpace  Před 11 lety

    Oh there's a Moon, alright. Ya just don't see much of it at night. We're at the New Moon, where the Moon is mostly between the Sun and the Earth (when a solar eclipse can occur). So it's only a sliver of a crescent at most and is most seen only in the daytime sky when it can be hard to spot. But it's there!

  • @HappDeeNess

    I'm confused... I thought the news last year was saying Super Moons only come around once ever like 18 years... so why is there a super moon in May when we had one last year?

  • @SergheyKatastrofenko
    @SergheyKatastrofenko Před 11 lety

    Full moons have no bigger influence over things on Earth than it has in any other phase. Moon phases are just parts of it being illuminated by the Sun. On the other hand, Moon does have a slightly bigger "power" when in Perigee, because it is a little closer to the Earth than usual. However, this happens every month, so it's not that special.

    This day, on this date, on the 20th May 2012, is «the day zero» of the Planetary Alignment of the Sun-Earth-Moon-Pleiades-Annular Solar Eclipse, the Sun will be eclipsed by our Moon, and it is the supposed date of Nibiru's appearing in our Solar System (see the videos of Jaime Maussán relating this future event). This is not my own idea and I am not announcing this event by myself. This is only a reminder of that date as the «day zero of Nibiru's approaching», as said by Jaime Maussán.That's all

    Also, sorry for the unnecissary elongated replies, but I also noticed in the description that he reffers to the moon rising as others as if they were different. It's the same exact moon. Why does he reffer to it as others? Because the general public would see the moon every night as being a new one rather than the same moon that we see every night.
    P.S. I completely get where you are coming from, but it doesn't even seem to fit the laws of quantum physics.

  • @adie123
    @adie123 Před 11 lety

    What does he mean scientists etc dont know why moons look bigger at closer to the horizon. Its surely common sense that water can act like a magnifying effect. So if the conditions are right and theres a decent amount of moisture in the atmosphere to also allow visibility of the moon without becoming cloudy. Then youll have a magnified moon.

    The thing is that if the moon has an effect on the tides and tides is the water and there's water in our bodies, don't you think the super moon will have a small effect on us? Not enough to put someone in the hospital but a tiny bit?

  • @Onem0ret1me
    @Onem0ret1me Před 11 lety

    During 1:10-1:40...One explaination of the reason why the super moon appears largest on the horizon, is due to magnetism within all the different levels of reflected sunlight and heat rising from and off the surface of whatever location the naked eye sees during a specific time of movement as it rises. It's almost similar to how heat from a distance seems wavy. I base this on reading different theories of Ed Leedskalnin, and the fact that I'm high as fuck.
