TRACE HERE STAR FRIENDS AND THIS WEEK I WAS
LOOKING AT MY ASTRONOMY CALENDARS AND SAW:

SUPER NEW MOON. I THOUGHT -- WHAT IS THAT?

A SUPER MOON IS A BIG LOOKIN MOON!
THIS IS BECAUSE ITS ORBIT IS SLIGHTLY

OBLONG SO SOMETIMES IT WILL APPEAR A BIT
LARGER IN THE SKY -- THUS A SUPER MOON

BUT, THIS WEEK ALSO A NEW MOON -- THAT S THE
PHASE WHEN THE MOON IS NOT VISIBLE TO US -- SO

THIS WEEK IS A NON-VISIBLE SUPERMOON!
HARD TO GET THAT EXCITED -- EXCEPT

NEW MOONS MEAN DARK SKY: HIT THE DARKNESS
TO FIND PER-SEUS IN THE NORTHEAST UNDER

CASSIOPEIA'S CHAIR. HIS CHEST IS BRIGHT MIRFAK,
AND NEXT TO IT IS MEDUSA S EVIL EYE: ALGOL.

YOU MIGHT WONDER WHY WE D NEED TO KNOW ABOUT A

SUPER NEW MOON. OTHER THAN THE DARK
SKY -- SUPERMOONS, EVEN DARK ONES,

MEAN THE TIDES ARE AT THEIR HIGHEST
POINT FOR AN AREA -- CALLED KING TIDES

ENJOY THE SUPER NEW MOON MY KINGS
AND QUEENS AND KEEP LOOKIN UP
