We had a full moon earlier this week - did you see it? It wasn’t one of your regular, everyday, run-of-the-mill full moons either. It was a Harvest moon and a Super moon. A Super moon occurs when the moon and the earth are at their closest distance. It makes the moon appear to be up to 15% larger and 30% brighter. The Harvest moon is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox, the first day of fall. It’s a big week in the night sky. Check it out!

The winners get a medal, a certificate, and a million dollars. It all started in 1901. Alfred Nobel made his fortune making and selling weapons. He invented most of them, including, most famously - dynamite. And then he left most of that fortune to fund these prizes.

You probably already knew that, but I just learned about it last week. As far as modern technology goes, I’m usually way behind the learning curve. But I know it now, and I’ve been snapping photos to beat the band.
