Moon on Christmas Eve “brightest you’ve ever seen”

The prose in this press release is purple, the planet is red. Mars and the Moon on December 24 will cross the sky together in a beautiful display, according to NASA (link, below).
The 98-percent-full Moon on Christmas Eve might also be the “brightest you’ve ever seen,” because it will be the highest-riding Moon we will experience until 2023.

NASA also uses this announcement to plug its back-to-the-Moon plans for 2020.

“Plans are to establish a lunar base for exploration,” the release reads, “and use the moon’s surface as a springboard to even further destinations.”

It’s Christmas Eve, and you’re snuggled cozily in your den. A glowing fire gently crackles and pops in the fireplace, and your head starts to droop as you nod off. Just then, something cold and wet nudges your cheek.

You open your eyes to stare directly into a large black nose. It’s time to take the dog for his walk.

Grumbling in vain, you put on your coat, snap the leash onto the wiggling dog’s collar, open the door to a rush of cold air. You step outside and enter a magical landscape.

  3. We will be out there! If it can penetrate the smog in Los Angeles.

    I am going back to making my last blood candle.

    How nice to think that none of know each other, and we will all be staring at the sky tonight.

  4. Looks good already after nightfall here, south of Boston. Can’t imagine it being as bad as LA, but we have some serious light pollution here, too. Have fun Kelly, Lauri and Katie!

  5. Satellites used in Home surveillance

    No citizen is entirely without danger of being harmed by the U S Governments’ Space Satellites Program using high frequency energy, and laser. There are documents on the Internet indicating that National Security satellites are unclassified, where more information can be found. Understanding a little about the use of heat sensing equipment for surveillance, much like detection during the Viet Nam War, these units are able to penetrated just about anything, even characterizing human bodies as they walk though their homes. There are very few places within a home that cannot be spied upon, depending on where the systems are directed–bathroom, kitchens, bedrooms, throughout the house, doing their dastardly thing. All surveillance, laser or high energies are commenced with a ground coordinator. Coordinators could be people living in the affected areas, operating equipment from their home, vehicle, even people on foot near by.
    Satellites are not the only equipment used in spying and doing damage to citizens. Much like Satellites, there are ground units operating in an equivalent way, being able to penetrate walls of buildings doing surveillance and harm to Citizens. Ground unites for surveillance is not new in the covert spying operations. During the Cold War with Russia, high tech surveillance equipment affected the U.S. Embassy in Moscow. Any designated premises, inside home, yard, sheds, driveway, carport, etc., all are subjected to surveillance and torturing of citizens. Much like satellites, the incoming multifrequency energies from ground equipment can damage muscle and nerve tissue of any part of a heat generating body. Areas such as head, shoulder, kidney, liver, feet, joints of arms and legs, back, all can be inflected with pain. Under some applications, ground and satellite units can and do use laser force, somewhat like that used in the medical field use to eradicate abnormalities, destroying maligned tissue. This is even more covert, for laser penetration produces little pain. Depending on the intensity, laser can produce small reddish defect in the skin and cut through nails of toes. There is extreme danger of being spied and done harm without the person knowing. For most individuals, the damage done will appear to be a normal infirmity, even the doctor will view the ailment as normal sickness.
    Fortunately, the incoming satellite and ground energies can be detected and identified, by using an effective barrier partitions. It’s a trail and error in most cases, a matter of using barriers checking to see if the pain continues. For the most part, it’s nearly impossible to block surveillance. Once an individual has been located, using people on the ground” coordinators”, the bombarding frequencies from either satellite and ground units can torture citizens endlessly.

  6. And all this time, I thought it was the ChemTrails causing all of this physical discomfort and mental unease. Add another log to the fire.

    Well, let the government do what they will, they know that we know, and now they are making us ill.

    I wish them all to be kept alive with their most wonderful high tech machines forever, living Harlin Ellison’s short story “I have no mouth, and I must scream”.

    I am going to enjoy the full moon for the rest of my life, because I can still scream.

    And last night’s was beautiful.

    Thank you Mark.
    Thank you, Mr Richards.

    What a life, eh?

  7. This is really interesting information. Thanks!

  8. The full moon was breath taking and I also enjoyed taking the time to look at it while drinking hot chocolate on December 24, 2007. My question: do satellites look like they are quivering back and forth when you see them in the sky? It’s been awile since I sat outside and looked at stars in the night - but I don’t remember them shaking before. Can someone tell me what I was looking at besides the moon, planes, and stars? Thanks.

  9. Pat,I’m not sure what you mean by “quivering” but,it sounds to me that what you were seeing was the result of moisture in the upper atmosphere or what astronomers dub as transparency.Moisture in the upper atmosphere is what causes stars to twinkle.I’m glad that you were able to get out and enjoy the night sky!.
