Tonight is a Super Moon! The Moon is now the closest to the Earth in 18 years and it is a full Moon which makes it beautiful to watch!
Took these images tonight with my Skywatcher 80ED Pro telescope and Canon 350D camera.In reality, the Moon is only slightly larger than usual, but with clear skies and a full Moon it looks very bright. I looked at lots of websites tonight about the Super Moon and the bad omens connected with it.
The earthquake in Japan is an amazing co-incidence don't you think?
Now I am not the sort of person to spread doom and gloom, but when you think about it...is it possible that the Moon had something to do with the earthquake in Japan?
Do you think that the forces of gravity involved makes it possible? Earth and Moon interact with each other applying forces on each other. If the Moon is closer to the Earth then a larger force by the Moon is exerted on the Earth which may cause stress in certain areas of the Earth. Maybe it was 'the straw that broke the camel's back' and the Earth cracked and caused the earthquake in Japan and not long ago in New Zealand. Here is a good explanation of the 'Supermoon' and it's myths! http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2011/03/18/kryptonite-for-the-supermoon/
