NOTE: Be sure to check out the
upcoming LUNAR Eclipse on October 7-8 and more info about our Qs & As on KF7TBA+K7LWA's Friday Insomniac-Net BLOG (http://k7lwa-ins.blogspot.com/) |
This event, which is called a Lunar Eclipse, should be visible to a large part of the world's population*.
In fact, for many of us on the Check-In List tonight, we should see a TOTAL Lunar Eclipse -- during which the full moon will turn a bright orange-red.
LW remembers seeing his first "Blood Moon" during the early AM hours of March 13, 1960 back in Hershey, PA when he was 9-years old.
So, how much do you know about Total Lunar Eclipses?
Please give us your best answers for each of the following 3 TRUE or FALSE questions, by using the (reuseable) answers of "A"=TRUE or "B"=FALSE.
++ "Mixed Bag of 3 Trivia Questions -- #26: There's A Moon Out Tonight" ++
Question #1: The term Blood Moon can be and is usually applied to any and all Total Lunar Eclipses, because the dispersed light from all the Earth’s sunrises and sunsets falls on the face of the moon at mid-eclipse -- True or False?
A. True, or
B. False.
Question #2: A Total Lunar Eclipse occurs when the Moon moves between the Sun and the Earth -- True or False?
A. True, or
B. False.
Question #3: The Total Lunar Eclipse on October 7-8, 2014 is the second one in the 2014-2015 lunar tetrad** (i.e., four consecutive total lunar eclipses, spaced at six lunar months apart from one another) -- True or False?
A. True, or
B. False.
[SOURCE: TBA -- LW's Super-Secret Treasure Trove of Trivia]
*Continents seeing at least some parts of the eclipse: ALL of North America, South America, the Pacific, Australia, Asia; some of the Atlantic and the Indian Oceans, Antarctica; NONE in Europe or Africa.
**What is a tetrad? It’s four successive total lunar eclipses, with no partial lunar eclipses in between, each of which is separated from the other by six lunar months (six full moons)
=================
++ QUOTE(s) OF THE DAY ++ -- from Van Morrison's Moondance (peaked at #39 on the Pop Singles chart in 1977 -- more):
Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I'm trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
[Chorus:]
Can I just have one a' more Moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love
[SOURCE: Van Morrison's Moondance]A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I'm trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
[Chorus:]
Can I just have one a' more Moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love
++ And Did You Know...? (with a Radio Wave to Big Al) ++
Often, LW will try to find a song to use as the ++ Quote of the Day ++ that is somehow related to the current Net's topic.
For tonight's Net, two songs immediately came to mind:
The Capris' There's A Moon Out Tonight and Van Morrison's Moondance.
The Capris song was used as the Quote six months ago for the April 11, 2014 net:
2014[15]Q -- Ins-Net Questions for Apr 11, 2014_Mixed Bag -- #10: There's A Moon Out Tonight
from The Capris' There's A Moon Out Tonight (peaked at Billboard position # 3 in 1961)
“There's a (moon out tonight) whoa-oh-oh ooh
Let's go strollin'
There's a (girl in my heart) whoa-oh-oh ooh
Whose heart I've stolen
There's a moon out tonight (whoa-oh-oh ooh)
Let's go strollin' through the park (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)”
[SOURCE: The Capris' There's A Moon Out Tonight]
However, you may see Moondance lyrics again around the next Total Lunar Eclipse (October 8, 2014).
