Okay, I got bored and jumped to the end, lol, but the video helped me to realize that sometimes the moon is closer during a full moon and sometimes it isn't! That could explain some discrepancies/cycles we've discussed on our other thread. :)

I take your moon and raise you the most spectacular comet ever in late 2013:

Great catch!

Captured it as a hi-def MP4 for playback — each hour during the year is represented by one frame of the video.

The ultimate Lunar reference...

I like cheese but don't trust the green kind (or "Moonies" either).

Shame on the Moon

LUKE: Look at him. He’s headed for that small moon.

HAN: I think I can get him before he gets there... he’s almost in range.

The small moon begins to take on the appearance of a monstrous spherical battle station.

BEN: That’s no moon! It’s a space station.

HAN: It’s too big to be a space station.

LUKE: I have a very bad feeling about this.

HAN: Yeah, I think your right. Full reverse! Chewie, lock in the auxiliary power.

I thought this would be easy to track down, the search engine was somewhat niggardly. LiM has linked a cool GIF movie someone made of the Moon going through its full gyration. Couldn’t find it.

Thanks Lonesome in Massachussets for any help you can give.
