Moon Flashes Far Side During Earth 'Photobomb'

It stands to reason that if you put an Earth-observing satellite beyond the moon's orbit, there might be the chance that occasionally the moon may drift in front. And in the case of the joint NOAA/NASA/U.S. Air Force Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR), this is the the second time the moon has made an Earth transit spectacle.

"For the second time in the life of DSCOVR, the moon moved between the spacecraft and Earth," said Adam Szabo, DSCOVR project scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., in a statement "The project recorded this event on July 5 with the same cadence and spatial resolution as the first 'lunar photobomb' of last year."

I get albedo mixed up with albumin and albino.

If you're an albino, and you have albedo mixed up in your albumin, you'd better see a doctor.

In eighth grade science class I shared a table with Becky Thomas and I don’t remenber anything else. She was so awsome.
Sigh...
