A beautiful and brilliant “harvest” moon made its mark on North America on September 16, 2016. Its light was a near pure white. In Georgia, with no clouds in sight, the moonlight cast defined shadows onto normally darkened ground. When we experience the moon’s light, we’re actually experiencing the light of the sun….and the moon does its […]
There are some things about this vast universe that simply boggle our minds. It’s estimated that we can only see 2% of the actual spectrum of light….only 2%.
