We Like the (Super) Moon

…Because It Is Close To Us.

Well, it was a few kilometres closer on Saturday night, so I took a few photographs (300mm lens, various apertures and speed). They're only handheld, but they look OK, I think. More here, or click these to embiggen.

I love geeks

The final Twittercast (I know, I know) from the LCROSS satellite deliberately (and unsuccessfully) crashed into the moon the other days was a Douglas Adams quote - the first (and last) thoughts of the sperm whale which materializes above Magrathea then plummets to its doom.

Square Eyes

If anyone's in Wolverhampton tomorrow, The Light House cinema is showing The Third Man, one of the best films of the 20th-century - a great British noir-thriller starring Orson Welles. See you there?

Also, Moon, a return to 1970s philosophical science fiction is on next week. There's a clip here.
