I saw something on facebook saying that around the end of August mars would be so close to either the sun or earth, that it would be the size or the sun, appearing next to it for a short period of time.

download google sky and point your smart phone at the object and see if they give you a name...if you don't have a smart phone then go back to your whittling and stop bothering everyone with your hysterics and non-sense

Look at the background, size difference is too great for it to be the Moon.

I'm pretty sure black africans built it long before white people came along and stole it from them.
 Quoting: DooMCooN 45114786


black africans have never built anything. They still live like they did 100,000 years ago, living in jungles hunting with spears. They havent advanced a single inch.

But that doesnt have anything to do with this thread so STFU.

Re: Bright Red Planet in Sky...... im not joking...
does anyone know what it is??
 Quoting: Kcchamps


The moon.

"Blood Moon over Utah"
"We have lots of wildfires going on right now, so there's a ton of haze in the sky. I couldn't see anything else in the sky, so I just had to take a shot. I wasn't kidding, I didn't touch the colors. It looked crazy!"
[link to www.flickr.com]

It looks red because of smoke from wildfires in the area. That photo was from August 14th, but it's the same story tonight. At the time OP says he took his photo, at 5:22 UT, the moon should have been about 20 degrees above the horizon in the southwest, at 218.22 degrees azimuth with an apparent orientation of 25.64 degrees from vertical with the illuminated limb facing down towards the horizon as seen from the middle of Utah (39.5 N 111.5 W).

 Quoting: Dr. Astro


now i know you do not expect me to believe that was the moon, it would be alot bigger than that, I know you are a shill now, without a doubt.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38116888


What is the focal length of OP's camera, what is the field of view, and what therefore is the image scale in arcminutes per pixel? Oh you don't know? Then you're fucking stupid for automatically dismissing it as the moon and worse, you're completely close minded since you didn't even look at my examples. It really comes down to this; you don't want to believe it's the moon so you won't even look at the evidence. That does not make me a shill.
