My Actifit Report Card: December 19 2024

Last December 15 was the moon of the long night, it has a movie title, but it is a quite obvious title, these are the longest days of the year in the northern hemisphere, hence the long night; They also call it the moon or the full cold moon, it will be the last full moon that we will have in 2024.

For moon watchers it will be a good time to look at the lunar craters, it will not be especially closer to us, it will be about 365,000 km away, in fact, this year when it was closest it was on October 17th. 35716 km.

By the way, recently there was an impact on the moon of a Geminid moon, the Geminid meteor shower impacts the earth and also impacts the moon, what happens is that on the moon, unlike the earth, those fragments of remains of comets normally and of some asteroid, those fragments on Earth practically all disintegrate in the atmosphere, but on the moon practically all of them impact with the moon because the moon does not have an atmosphere so they hit the moon and in that clash they usually cause flashes or shine if they are of significant size.

When I say important size, thinking about the size of a soccer ball, it would be a flash strong enough to be seen from the ground and that was what a Japanese astronomer Daichi Fujii captured a few days ago. the full frost moon in the north would be beautiful, very curious the ancient references to full moons to give them names because normally what we have are what they were called among the indigenous peoples of North America but I am sure that the Romans probably called them. Greeks or other European peoples would also have their own tradition when naming the full runes.
