YouTube Description
as posted by the channelYou think you know the moon? On this explainer, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Chuck Nice break down moon lore and any misconceptions you might have about the moon.
Chuck carefully avoids making any moon jokes as we break down myths about the moon. Why does the moon look bigger on the horizon? Is it actually a trick of the eye? You’ll learn an easy trick to undo this illusion. What’s a honey moon? We break down different moons including the creepiest, and also Chuck’s favorite: the blood moon. All that, plus, lunar eclipses, sunsets and more on another StarTalk explainer!
