Hello my little moonpies, Trace here 
with the lowdown on lunar lochs!

2
00:00:05,839 --> 00:00:09,009
This week well get the second to 
last full moon of 2020 -- a.k.a

3
00:00:09,109 --> 00:00:13,179
the Beaver Moon -- because this is when our 
buck-toothed friends start prepping for winter.

4
00:00:13,279 --> 00:00:17,183
The full moon is a beautiful thing, but 
have you ever stopped to think about

5
00:00:17,283 --> 00:00:21,588
WHAT you re looking at? On the surface of the 
moon are these light and dark spots called

6
00:00:21,688 --> 00:00:26,760
Mare -- Latin for sea. They were erroneously 
thought to be oceans by early astronomers.

7
00:00:26,860 --> 00:00:31,264
Today we know Maria are plains of 
volcanic basalt left from cooled

8
00:00:31,364 --> 00:00:35,402
lava flows. There are about twenty Mare 
so I won t list them all. BUT the Apollo

9
00:00:35,502 --> 00:00:41,241
landing took place at the south end of the Sea 
of Tranquility or Mare Tranquillitatis -- here!

10
00:00:41,341 --> 00:00:45,345
This week, once ya ll are done scarfing 
turkey and fighting about well everything

11
00:00:45,445 --> 00:00:49,082
why not pop outside and drop some fun 
facts about our celestial satellite?

12
00:00:49,182 --> 00:00:53,182
Happy Thanksgiving, USA -- and keep lookin up.
