HARVEST MOON

[beast]

HARVEST MOON: This weekend's full Moon has a special name--the Harvest Moon. It's the full moon closest to the northern autumnal equinox (Sept. 22). In years past, farmers depended on the light of the Harvest Moon to gather ripening crops late into the night. Now we appreciate it mainly for its beauty.  Go outside this weekend and enjoy the moonlight.

SOLAR MINIMUM RETURNS: Two sunspots, which appeared on the autumnal equinox to break several months of extreme solar quiet, have faded away, leaving the sun blank once again. The deepest solar minimum in nearly a hundred years appears poised to continue. NASA spacecraft are now reporting a surge in cosmic rays around Earth caused, somewhat ironically, by this low solar activity.  The full story may be found at

I love to watch the full moons in the fall and winter.  Up here they are usually huge, if the clouds aren't blocking the view.

I saw brief glimpses of the full moon last night.   It was bright white.

IIRC, the full moon in October here looks huge and usually an orangish yellow.
