Isn t it possible to see two moons on August 27th?

Two moons will not be seen.

Recently, a message that "two moons can be seen on the night of August 27, 2010 (Friday)" aroused the curiosity of many netizens, and the commenter said that "looking up at the sky at 0:30 on August 27, you will see two moons", "Mars will become the brightest star in the night sky in August, and it will be as big as a full moon with the naked eye", "The next time it happens will be 2287". In this regard, some people expressed doubts, and many people said that they were "looking forward to it" and "waiting for that moment".

This information is actually misinformation from netizens, and the reason is "estimated to be due to the astronomical 'Martian opposition' phenomenon that occurred on August 27, 2003." At that time, the distance between Mars and the Earth was about 5575 80,000 kilometers, which became the shortest distance in 60,000 years. Observed on Earth, the orange-red Mars becomes the brightest 'star' in the sky."

In fact, even at that time, the Mars seen with the naked eye was only the size of a rice ball, and it was impossible to compare with the moon. Almost every year since that 'Mars opposition', there have been misinformation about seeing the same astronomical phenomena at this time, and this year is no different. You won't see two moons.

However, this August 27 if the weather is good. We can see the "Jupiter conjunction Moon", which is the beautiful celestial phenomenon when Jupiter comes closest to the Moon. If you are interested, you can keep an eye out for what is about to happen in the sky"Fairy Tale of the Stars and Moon", an intimate encounter between Jupiter and the Moon.

Friends can start watching tonight, and you'll see Jupiter and the Moon getting closer and closer!

It's complete nonsense, first of all, at the time of these people's advocacy, Mars will not be visible at all at 24 o'clock in the evening of August 27. At that time, Mars was very close to the Sun, and if there was even the slightest possibility of seeing it in a place with excellent conditions after sunset, it would not be even possible to see it in the city.

Secondly, Mars simply cannot be as big as the Moon. Now that Mars is nearly 400 million kilometers away from Earth, it is impossible for it to look as big as the Sun. If Mars were to be as big as the Moon, it would be within 1 million kilometers from Earth, but in any case, Mars could never be less than 55 million kilometers from Earth.

Mars opposes the Sun once every two years, which is the best time to observe Mars, but Mars has never appeared and will never appear if the moon is so big.

Obviously, the originator of this statement is a person who does not know astronomy at all, and it is ridiculous from the point of view of astronomy.

The Internet is really making people's taste more and more heavy, and the celestial phenomena that the Chinese have not dared to forge for thousands of years have now also been faked, which is worth pondering.

August 27 is the 18th day of the lunar calendar, and the moon will appear in the eastern sky at 9 p.m. and will be slightly missing in the west. It is recommended that the landlord go and see the moon. On the night of August 27th, there is a celestial phenomenon of Jupiter conjunct the moon, I hope the landlord can pay attention, it is best to use a small telescope to catch Jupiter and the moon at once.

But I'm sure there would have been people who didn't know astronomy at that time who would have preached that Jupiter was what they called Mars.

Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, and by August 27 it will be possible to prove how stupid and uninteresting the so-called celestial phenomena are to be forged.

No, experts said on the 23rd that this was misinformation by netizens and fake.

No, the rumors have been refuted on CCTV news.

It's just that you can see a brighter Venus, much smaller than the moon.

I photographed it, and Venus is just a bright spot, estimated to be only 1 450 times the size of the Moon.

Maybe it's fooling, but we're raining here today, and we haven't seen anything, depressed!

The four words that the expert said are pure rumors.

Today's birthday won't be really exciting.

Like a ball that has just been deflated, it seems to be round but not round.

The moon on the twentieth day of August is the period from "Wang" (the 15th day is called "Wang)" to "Obscurity". So it's like a ball that has just been blown out, and it seems to be round but not round.

The Moon is the only natural satellite of the Earth, probably formed about 4.5 billion years ago, and shortly after the formation of the Earth, there are several hypotheses about its origin, and the theory supported by more factual evidence is that it formed from the debris of a huge collision between the Earth and the Mars-sized celestial body "Theia", which gathered in the outer periphery of the Earth.

Note: The front side of the moon is filled with huge impact craters filled with basalt lava flows ejected from dark volcanoes, forming a vast plain called the "Moon Sea", which actually has not a drop of water in it. Between the outer and lunar seas are bright, ancient plagioclase highlands and conspicuous impact craters.

It is the brightest object in the sky other than the Sun, and although it appears a very bright white, its surface is actually very dark and the reflectivity is only slightly higher than that of old asphalt. Because the moon is very conspicuous in the sky, coupled with the regular changes in the phases of the moon, it has had a significant impact on human culture such as myths and legends, religious beliefs, philosophical thoughts, calendar compilation, literature and art, and customs and traditions since ancient times.

Cycle of the Moon:

Orbital period days (like rotation), direction of motion: anticlockwise rotation around the Earth from west to east. The Moon, commonly known as the Moon, also known as the Moon, was also known as Taiyin, Xuantu, Chanjuan, and Wangshu in ancient China, and is the only natural satellite of the Earth and the fifth largest satellite in the solar system.

With a slightly larger diameter than a quarter of the Earth and a mass of about 1 81 of the Earth, the Moon is the largest moon in volume and mass relative to the planets it orbits.

Hello. [Moon Sign]: The upper quarter is said to be half of the full moon, which is the beginning of the month.

VIII, IX; The second quarter is said to be half of the moon, and it is twenty.

II.III. The moon of the twentieth day of the eighth month that you are talking about is the period from "Wang" to "Obscurity". Like a ball that has just been deflated, it seems to be round but not round.
