How big is it?
Take a look at the moon as it rises over the Beaches this week. Does it look enormous? NASA says it's because of something called the 'summer moon illusion and it is particulary obvious this week. The page also has moon rise times in various cities so you can check it out: Moon rise in Miami will be 9:19 tonight. (That is, if you can see it through the clouds. Check out The Herald Web Cam to see if the sky is visible.) (Via Metafilter.) posted by liz at 12:13 PM
