[quote] Or, alternatively, look at the moon from Earth, when was the last time you saw a moon so huge?
[/quote]
Sometime back in March I believe, when there was a Supermoon. Was about the same size. A beautiful sight to wake up to.

it only looked big because it was close to the Horizon. The moon stays the same size

I know how it works. He asked when (we) last saw a moon that big, and I told him.
-
But we didnt see a moon that big because it wasn't. It was an optical illusion.
-
So earths view from the moon can be an infinite optical illusion

You guys are arguing semantics. We did [b]see [/b]a moon that big, but we didn't see a moon [b]that [/b]big. His point was just that he has seen it look that way before.

Thanks. I've been here a while. It was weird no one had greeted me yet.
