You 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! • About the prints that flank Neil in this video: • Black Swan” White Swan limited edition serigraph prints by Coast Salish artist Jane Kwatleematt Marston.
