  1. I remember the Mushroom Planet series. I read the lot of them when I was ca. 8 years old.

    1. There was more to the Mushroom planet? I only know of the first and Return to Mushroom Planet. I read somewhere that Mushroom Planet was considered a classic.

  2. I have a book called What if the Moon Didn’t Exist. A scientist looks at various possibilities, what if we had two moon? What if it were larger? Smaller? etc. It’s fascinating, especially since it could well be that having the moon and consequently tides, might have been conducive to life on earth.

    1. There are numerous speculations on that topic. At one time, it was believed that if not for the Moon, we would have a dense atmosphere like that of Venus. Currently, we think that the Moon is having a stabilizing effect on Earth’s orbit and that our climate would be a lot wilder without it.

  3. My daughter Sarah is studing Art History at Concordia. She showed me one of her recent readings, concerning the Baroque painter (and rare women painter of her time), Artemisia Gentileschi (1593 – ca. 1656).

    One art historian took a very convoluted connection between the light on the face of the Biblical heroine Judith to the moon to the moon goddess Artemis to the painter’s own name, Artemisia.

    1. Which would probably come as a complete surprise to the artist.

      1. That’s what art historians (and literary historians) do for a living!

  4. I never knew that hanging your laundry on a full moon makes them come out spotless … Does that mean the pigeons don’t fly during a full moon?

    1. The list of strange Moon superstitions is very long, with many entries far weirder than that. This is just a quick cross-sample.
