On March 4, the moon occulted the star Aldebaran (Alpha Tauri). Initial reports indicate that Aldebaran was not harmed. But light from Aldebaran which had been racing towards the earth for 65 years hit the moon a little more than a second before it would have reached its goal. What a disappointment for those rays of light—almost at their goal and splat! they hit the moon instead.
Their final words were “We got mooned!”
