This week you can see what's called the Moon Illusion, that time when the full moon seems so much larger near the horizon than when it's overhead.
When I found this out about our visual perception of the moon, it blew my mind! Hopefully it will blow yours too and you'll think of it every time you look at the moon. Some serious research and data included in this one.

In which we learn why the moon looks so much larger at the horizon, whether your fingernails can out-race Portugal, and whether Ken or John has the better Axl Rose impression. Certificate #18042.
It’s drifting away from Earth at the same rate that your fingernails grow, but the Moon is still our closest neighbour - so close, that we’ve left quite a lot of litter on its surface…
