I saw the moon last night. When I looked at it I thought it looked a little different. I realy didn't think to much of it. Now that I have read this article, now I know why the moon looked a little different in the sky last night. If I have time I might go outside tonight and look at it again knowing why it looks a little different.

I saw the moon last night too when I was walking back from my neighbors house and it looked beautiful. The light from it let me get home. It was hard for me to resist tring to reach up and grab it.

The post was cool bu the harvest moon was awsome I was out there with my freind and his telescope we were looking t it was so cool.

PAPATHANAS,ANTHONY said...

I agree with kyle i didnt really think much of the moon changing.

keisersydney said...

I didnt see the moon last night but my mom said it was a yellowly color and I didnt think much of it.I thought that maybe it was becuase of global warming or pollution or something like that.Hopefully in 2029 I will remeber to look at it!!!

Park Deborah said...

I didnt see the moon on the 22 or 23 but i have seen it before...When ever i see the moon i always comment on it to who ever was near me.I would usually say why is it so big and its so scary and looks like the moon in a scary movie.

Royer Rachel said...

To Kyle Gorman: I agree with you 100% about not thinking about why the moon looked differently.If I have time to look outside for a few moments which I should I look for the moon too.

Sheridan,Megan said...

I saw the moon. I thought it looked really odd, but then it was really neat. Hopefully i will see it again or remember to look in 2029.

Sheridan,Megan said...

Kyle,
I thought the moon looked different but I did not think much of it either.

Rachel,
The moon was a yelow-ish color it looked really neat. I never thought of global warming or pollution though.

Madison Schnell said...

I did see the moon Sept. 22&23! It was a really cool looking moon, although it looked differernt than usual. I agree with Megan, I hope I remember to look in the sky in 2029!

kiphart,shane said...

The harvest moon i did not get to see but from the website i think it looks pretty cool and that the harvest moon is te last day of the summer

Madison Schnell said...

Why was the moon so yellowish? was it because of all the other stars glowing on it?

kiphart,shane said...

IM responding to cade harvey yes it looks like a ornage gumball i would grab it if i could as well

Kilgore, Sydney said...

I also saw the moon on the 22nd and 23rd. I did look different than usually, but i didn't think anything of it. I never did know about Harvest moon before. I hope to see it again in 2029 though.

Kilgore, Sydney said...

Madison I was also wodering the same thing too. Why does the moon look yellow? Why is it not going to happen until 2029 again?

Wall, Alexandra said...

I saw the moon when doing moon observations, but I didn't really think twice about it... I thought the link was really cool but kind of confusing. Does anybody know why the moon looked yellow? @ Madison, I don't really know, I am wondering the same thing!

Kilgore, Sydney said...

Rachel when you said you thought
it was global warming or pollution, I was thinking the same thing cause i have never seen the moon like that.

Wall, Alexandra said...

@ Sydney, I amwondering that too... why won't the moon be like that until 2029??

Sean Laake said...

I did see the moon last night, I was just able to see it out of my telescope, the seas on the moon looked larger last night. I kinda imagined it as a giant orange.

Breadon,Zac said...

i could not see the moon i was outside at 9:00 and i just couldnt find it but i did see the big dipper....i think it was the big dipper

Brady Farmer said...

I saw the moon it looked like a full moon but it was yellow.It looks like it was in the desert when it was yellow.For some reason I think the craters in the moon make it look like ET and the boy in the bike in the movie ET.I know the craters do not look like that but I think it does sometimes.

I did not see the harvest moon, but I really wish I did. My mom said she saw it on her way home from work. She said it was low in the sky and that it was a kind of orange color. I hope I see it next year.

Ryan Weber said...

The moon looked a little different i dont know why it just did almost like it was more yellow than ever. Very bright and it almost was like this article gives you alot of information on why it was like that. Wow the solar system in weird.

Ryan Weber said...

I agree with kyle because me and him almost said the same thing but your post is cool its very descriptive.

Kamilah Williams said...

Jenn Davis said...

I didn't get to see the harvest moon but from the pictures, I wish I had. It looks really neat and I will look for it next time.

Jenn Davis said...

@ Katy Nortman
That sounds like it looked really cool. Are you glad you saw it?

Jennifer20107 said...

I saw the moon and I thought it looked really pretty. I was in the car and I stared at it the whole way home from west chester. I saw it one morning at around 6:50 am and it lookedd beautiful. It was a little gold.

KAM said...

Just seeing this today I'm trying to think back and see if I remember any differences...So I sort of remember seeing something other that what looked like the ordinary moon...it might have been the same night. I just remember questioning if it was really the moon,I didn't really think much of it either.

KAM said...

Dear Rachel,
I never would have thought of it as being because of global warming or pollution...
and why won't the moon be like that until 2029?

cade harvey said...

dear Elizabeth, It could very well be global warming, but the the moon vidio we watched it explained how the moon was slowly moving away from us not towrds us.

Giblin, Keegan said...

@Whoever is wondering why it won't be like that until 2029.

The Moon was probely yellowish because it was reflecting off the Sun more than usaul. So that means it only happens like every 20 years.

A, Owen said...

I thought it looked amazing, and it is a perfact representation of summer. It had the nice warm colors of summer are running into the distance. If I could see that every night I would, but now that summer is gone It'll have to wait till next year.

A, Owen said...

Is what keegan said true, that it only happens ever 20 years. If it is true that means the moon won't be yellowish for another 20 years. We'll be 30 by then.

Gillian said...

I didn't get to see the moon but when I see the picture it brightened up my night/day. I thought the article was interesting. My friends said it was pretty and exicting. I will remeber to look at it in 2029.

Gillian said...

I agree with Kyle I never thought the moon could change. I thought it stayed the same all the time. I guess it is a good thing that I am learning this stuff so I can share it with my family.

Fairbanks,Joey said...

I agree with anthony, it was breathtaking. I hope one day I will walk on it.

:) Jaspers, Abby (: said...

That would be really cool to walk on the moon but i would be really scared and probablly back out. I wouldnt want to leave earth.
I do wonder why the moon looks yellowish too? I dont think it is becasuse of the pollution though. Its way to far from the earth to get our pollution. But it could be possible.?
