If you missed the Blood Moon last night, have no fear. NASA put together a short video showing you the entire event in all its glory:

The video was shot at the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, CA. Here’s a short description about why the moon looked so red last night: about the Blood Moon.

If you want to see the next lunar eclipse, you’ll have to wait until October.

“Hey Moon” by John Maus

February 26th, 2014 | Space

Hey Moon

John Maus is a musician and political scientist from Austin, Minnesota who composes beautiful music to highlight his deep, melancholic voice. “Hey Moon” is my favorite track off the 2011 album, “We Must Become the Pitiless Censors of Ourselves.

The music video above was created by Jonathan H., and its visual simplicity matches the song perfectly in my opinion.

Christine Gwosdz put it well when she wrote, “This song makes me want to demolecularize back into the universe, or fade into heaven as others may say.

Then, the moonlight was beamed onto a reflective water pool to get this amazing final scene.

Here’s a picture of the piece with the room lights on, to give you an idea of how it was made:

China has been showing a strong interest in the Moon lately. Reportedly, up to 1,000,000 citizens are now working in their space program.

They recently launched the Chang’e-3 lunar lander, with the Jade Rabbit Moon rover on board, hoping to achieve a “soft landing,” which would be a critical step on the way to putting a person safely on the Moon.

Here’s an interesting podcast from Science Friday discussing China’s lunar plans. Maybe we will see a race to Mars between the US and China in the near future?

Surrealism from Tebe Interesno (Dmitry Maksimov)

July 2nd, 2013 | Space

Tebe Interesno - On the Moon

Tebe Interesno - Cliff Rail

Tebe Interesno (“Are you Interested”) is the moniker of Russian digital artist, Dmitry Maksimov, who has a predilection for surreal, space-inspired illustrations.  Frederic Kroutchev believes that his work evokes a Japanese aesthetic due to “Maksimov’s usage of tilt-shift effects, which mimic miniature photography on a grand scale. He’s just taken it one step further, and actually inserted his own “miniatures” into the landscapes.

The Moon Hoax Debunked

January 23rd, 2013 | Space

Moon Hoax Debunked

This is one of the clearest examples of a Moon Hoax debunking on the web right now.  Basically, it boils down to limitations of the video technology at the time.

 I hope you are not one of the crazies out there that believe in the Moon Hoax, but if you are, it’s time to find a new conspiracy to support.

Moonwalk by Dean Potter

January 20th, 2013 | Space

Dean Potter Moonwalk

Dean Potter is the world-renowned American free climber, alpinist, base jumper, and highliner featured in the video above.  He’s conquered some of the world’s most challenging peaks WITHOUT a rope!  He has speed soloed Half Dome, El Capitan, Cerro Torre, and Fitzroy.

The Moonwalk above is located on a highline at Cathedral Peak, as part of a project for National Geographic called The Man Who Can Fly.

When asked to describe the experience in a recent interview, here’s was Dean had to say:

Did the Moon look like it does in the photo with the naked eye?

Potter: Photographer Mikey Schaefer was taking the photographs from approximately 1.2 miles west of the highline. For him, the moon and myself looked exactly like you see it in this picture. From my vantage point on the summit of the Cathedral Peak, the moon was higher in the sky and it looked as the moon always looks to us mortals on the ground.

What would you have done if you had fallen?

Potter : I’ve always been a “free soloist.” Whatever I do, I long to be untethered and free. This desire for freedom goes far beyond the highline to every facet of life. Freedom is our most fundamental right. I am completely confident with my ability to catch the line if I were to fall. I’ve practiced this catch move successfully for the past 19 years.

And here’s a few more photos from the National Geographic episode which aired on Sunday, February 8th, 2013 at 8pm:
