THE MOON

Shoot for the Supermoon 2020 is a fundraiser for Lowell Observatory, the Home of Pluto and a 501(c)(3) nonprofit institution dedicated to astronomical discovery. 3:30pm - AZ Gives Fundraiser Join Lowell Observatory at 3:30pm-5:45pm AZ/PT (Pacific) on Tuesday, April 7, 2020, for live demonstrations of STEM activities for kids that you can do at home, and the launch of a new at-home science challenge for kids. This portion of the live stream is in partnership with AZ Gives Day (https://azgives.org) to raise funds for STEM education.  6pm - Supermoon Fundraiser At 6pm AZ/PT, Lowell astronomers and educators will present exciting talks about lunar research and Apollo history, with occasional breaks showing live views of the Pink Supermoon and appeals to support Lowell Observatory and our new at-home science challenges for kids. The Shoot for the Supermoon fundraiser continues at lowell.edu/supermoon. Moonrise is at 6:42pm AZ/PT here in Flagstaff, and astronomical full moon (syzygy) occurs at 7:35pm. This full moon is a supermoon because it occurs just over 8 hours after the moon has reached perigee, when it is at its closest point to Earth in its orbit.

Super Pink Moon, the biggest SuperMoon of 2020 occurred on Tuesday, April 7. ► Expedition 63 Crew Launch to the International Space Station SET REMINDER: https://youtu.be/paVV06VkE9Q ► NASA Radio: Earth from Space LIVE NOW : https://youtu.be/PFKKXz_Jh10 A SuperMoon takes place when a full moon is at its closest to the Earth. On Tuesday (April 7), the moon will arrive at its closest point to Earth in 2020: a distance of 221,772 miles (356,907 kilometers) away. The name Pink Moon comes from the pink wildflowers, Wild Ground Phlox, that bloom in the spring and are native to North America. #SuperMoon #SuperLuna #LunaLlena ► Copyright FREE music provided by: Calm - Silent Partner Song: "Sappheiros - Embrace [Chill]" is under a Creative Commons license (CC BY 3.0) Music promoted by BreakingCopyright: http://bit.ly/Sappheiros-Embrace Music: Ticker - Silent Partner "Scott Buckley - Titan [Epic]" is under a Creative Commons license (CC-BY) Music promoted by BreakingCopyright: https://youtu.be/8mdDft5-q28 "Escape by Sappheiros" is under a Creative Commons license (CC BY 3.0) Music promoted by BreakingCopyright: https://youtu.be/UMRL6ltNfPU Song: "Sappheiros - Falling (Ft. eSoreni) [Chill]" is under a Creative Commons license (CC-BY) Song: Day 7 - Sweet Sorrow Link: https://youtu.be/LZlh4sxptMw Music promoted by BreakingCopyright: http://bit.ly/Sappheiros-Falling Mariana Trench by Paul Keane // UNDERWATER SPACE GALAXY CHILL-OUT BACKGROUND Audio Junction - NoCopyrightSounds Song: "Sappheiros - Embrace [Chill]" is under a Creative Commons license (CC BY 3.0) Music promoted by BreakingCopyright: http://bit.ly/Sappheiros-Embrace

A supermoon occurs when the moon’s orbit is closest (perigee) to Earth at the same time it is full. So what's so special about a supermoon? Watch #NASAatHome to learn more and visit nasa.gov/moon

A "pink supermoon” (or “super pink moon”) occurs on Tuesday, April 7. This particular supermoon will be the biggest and brightest of the year, because it is full closest to the point of perigee. Perigee makes a full moon appear up to 7% larger and 15% brighter than a typical full moon. Traditionally, any full moon that occurred in April was called a Pink Moon. As for “supermoon,” the astronomical term is perigee-syzygy of the Earth-Moon-Sun system. Syzygy happens every time there is a full moon, and perigee is when the Moon comes closest to Earth in its slightly elliptical orbit around the Earth. On April 7, perigee (11:08am AZ/PT) occurs just over 8 hours before syzygy (7:35pm AZ/PT), and so we get a Pink Supermoon. The Moon rises due east at 6:42pm, here in Flagstaff, Arizona.

I've been feeling some evil genius tendencies creep out in my social isolation, so I'm embracing them in this video with the science of how I'm going to steal the Moon with a giant electromagnet, a Hohmann transfer orbit and a bolt of lightning...

This is clearly a bit of brevity for 1st April during what has been a rather terrible few weeks for a lot of people. Enjoy this light-hearted bit of science.

What do you do if you're a lonely planet looking for a new companion? Well you might use your gravity to catch yourself a tiny moon. That's what our Earth did with a small car-sized chunk of space rock called 2020 CD3 discovered by Kacper Wierzchos and Teddy Pruyne at the Catalina Sky Survey.

About 2 weeks ago NASA human spaceflight managers announced that the Lunar Gateway was no longer part of the plans of lunar landing targetted for 2024. The Lunar Gateway is a small space station in a loosely bound orbit near the moon, that can act as a staging site for mission to both the Moon and Mars. Up till now the plan was to have Orion dock there and take a lander to the surface of the moon, but I speculate that the new plan will involve Boeing launching the whole mission on 2 Upgraded SLS rockets.

Well, that's what could have happened if the secret USAF Project A119 had gone ahead in 1959, this is the story of that and the yet to be famous person that accidentally revealed the top-secret project.

Learn how Margaret Hamilton and her team of engineers built the software for the Apollo 11 mission that landed mankind on the Moon. -- The Apollo 11 moon landing was about the astronauts, mission control, software and hardware all working together as a seamless integrated system. None of which would have been possible without the contributions of one engineer: Margaret Hamilton. Who was this pioneer? Matt Porter and Margaret Hamilton detail how a woman and her team launched the software that took mankind to the Moon. Lesson by Matt Porter & Margaret Hamilton, directed by TOTEM Studio.

This video uses data gathered from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft to recreate some of the stunning views of the Moon that the Apollo 13 astronauts saw on their perilous journey around the farside in 1970. These visualizations, in 4K resolution, depict many different views of the lunar surface, starting with earthset and sunrise and concluding with the time Apollo 13 reestablished radio contact with Mission Control. Also depicted is the path of the free return trajectory around the Moon, and a continuous view of the Moon throughout that path. All views have been sped up for timing purposes — they are not shown in "real-time."

The Apollo Mission proved humans can work on the lunar surface but the longest lunar spacewalk lasted a total of 22 hours. Could humans spend longer amounts of time on the Moon? How about live there, as they do on the International Space Station? Lunar technology expert Bérengère Houdou describes living on the Moon.

We can 3D print just about anything these days, from tools and buildings to cells and even food. But that’s on Earth, where materials are readily available. What about in space or on the Moon? Could we 3D print a lunar base? ESA engineer Advenit Makaya walks us through the process.

The Catalina Sky Survey has discovered a small object, designated 2020 CD3, that may have been temporarily captured by Earth's gravity. -- How scientists found Earth's new minimoon and why it won't stay here forever: https://www.space.com/minimoon-2020-cd3-discovery-around-earth-explained.html Credit: Space.com / Catalina Sky Survey / NASA/JPL-Caltech / produced & edited by [Steve Spaleta](http://www.twitter.com/stevespaleta)

After almost 50 years since the Apollo Moon landing missions ended, NASA announced that they’re going to return to the surface of the Moon with their Artemis mission, ideally taking the first lunar footsteps in 2024. NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine asked for additional funding to achieve this goal, and the other branches of government haven’t been as enthusiastic about this plan. So don’t be surprised if the landing date slips to 2028 or even farther. But NASA is moving forward on its architecture to return humans to the Moon, from its launch rocket to the entire method of getting astronauts down to the surface. Exactly which rockets, modules and landing systems that will be used are still getting worked out, with different options still getting considered.

It’s common knowledge that the Moon is a cratered ball of rock. Stunning as it is in the night sky or in photographs taken from orbit the landscape is barren, grey, dusty and dark. Are there other things to be found than meets the eye? Moon scientist Alexandre Meurisse explains which resources can be found on the Moon.
