Who the fuck cares about east west bullshit

I see it now, moons a U. Is that normal?

in 1985, i moved to Miami.  During that time I noticed the moon looking upside down.  it bugged me because I had never seen it like that before.

so it's normal i think
[/quote]

I had doubts about different locations in the past. Now, from the NASA vid it seems location makes no difference. otherwise they'd state the location where all that applies. They did not, so it is for the whole Earth, I suppose. And it is definitely [b]not normal.[/b]
I am still waiting someone with an answer...how come the photos show a different Moon, than the super precise, super scientific calculations and the animation based on those calculations. 
Mr Astronut?   Anyone?
[/quote]

What is it that you think that vid shows? Please be specific.
[/quote]

It shows libration, not field rotation.  Field rotation depends on the observer position, thus you can't make a single video depicting it for everyone.  They didn't, they simply showed libration.  I clearly and irrefutably showed the effect of field rotation last week.

Yes, we are talking about libration.
[/quote]

Well as I already proved, field rotation is why the moon looked like a "u," not libration.  Thanks for agreeing with me.
[/quote]
You are very welcome, Mr Astro:-) Ok lets call it field rotation. I think the terms are not important: 
[/quote]
Terminology IS important.  Field rotation is not libration.  Libration is a minor effect compared to field rotation, and has a much longer periodicity than field rotation.

we are looking at the vid,

What part of your video shows libration, not field rotation did you not understand?  What part of field rotation depends on observer position did you not understand?  Which part of they only showed libration did you not understand?  It's impossible for the video to show what the moon's apparent orientation will look like from your specific location from a non-polar aligned perspective; that depends on your location and varies from person to person.

P.S. I checked your link, but no Moon vids from last week.
[/quote]
Bullshit, the link takes you straight to the relevant video.  Everyone, watch this from 9 minutes on:

Dr. Astro,
1. you claim above , that [color=darkblue] "field rotation is why the moon looked like a "u," not libration"[/color]
I found the definition of field rotation, and it says:
[b]"Field rotation is the apparent rotation of a celestial object in the field of view of a telescope during the course of the night. All objects in the eyepiece field or on the camera’s image will move in arcs. It’s usually either ignored or not noticed for visual observations, but cannot be ignored for photography."[/b]http://www.celestron.com/c3/support3/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=2222
That is FIELD ROTATION refers to viewing an object in a TELESCOPE. Our observations of the U-MOON made directly, with naked eyes,  no telescope.  The animation, that we compare our observations to  also simulates a naked eye observation. That concludes you cannot explain the U-Moon by Field Rotation.
2. I watched your video, but your verbal notes offered no explanation HOW the field rotation effects the phenomenon we are talking about.

Original Message This is a thread from 2010, I renewed it because now there is evidence...
_____________________________

For 2 months the position of the shadow of the Earth on the Moon is different than before. The sliver is on the bottom, and forms a wide letter "U" instead of the usual position.

There are many strange pics on the Moon on Spaceweather.com. More often than not, you see much more on the pics, that the written explanation. This time the Moon is not a crescent at all on the pic.
