(((Aloha))) +Solie-
Thank you once again for the Interaction, such a nice medicine to help know thyself, much appreciated.
To answer your question about whether or not there was something that I thought you missed.....most definitely not, as I do not have a place in your King-DOME to imply such a thing. I have just been taking a personal survey recently about the matter, curious about the number of people who know vs those who don't....and then those who don't really care. A "study" one could say :)
Personally I feel that the moon is much more trans perant than NASA, on many levels....even literally. I say this because I have personally seen stars thru it on numerous occasions, with the use of a telescope. I've also seen the blue skies thru it, with just my eyes. Curiously of coarse, I then thought to use the INternet to see if I we're the only one seeing this, while simotinuously contemplating- how could anybody land on something that was transperant?? But why would one lie about such a thing?? Am I just looking for another rabbit hole to venture down?? Did I parrellel jump into yet another universe within the
twi-light zone :D. ......it then seemed so, as goo-goo eyes confirmed it, astronomers working within and without institutions have also seen such a thing.
Still though, I can't say for sure one way or another since the private or "common" class space shuttle service keeps having problem after problem trying to get up there.....if only they would share those secrects right....well, that and if I had a million dollars to spare
Then again.....there's always that "beware what you wish for" thing. I crossed paths with what is said to be quotes from a Mr.G.I Gurdjieff, and found them interesting.
"Only thought as theoretical and as far removed from fact as modem European thought could have conceived the evolution of man to be possible apart from surrounding nature, or have regarded the evolution of man as a gradual conquest of nature. This is quite impossible. In living, in dying, in evolving, in degenerating, man equally serves the purposes of nature, rather, nature makes equal use, though perhaps for different purposes, of the products of both evolution and degeneration. And, at the same time, humanity as a whole can never escape from nature, for, even in struggling against nature man acts in conformity with her purposes. The evolution of large masses of humanity is opposed to nature's purposes. The evolution of a certain small percentage may be in accord with nature's purposes. Man contains within him the possibility of evolution. But the evolution of humanity as a whole, that is, the development of these possibilities in all men, or in most of them, or even in a large number of them, is not necessary for the purposes of the earth or of the planetary world in general, and it might, in fact, be injurious or fatal. There exist, therefore, special forces (of a planetary character) which oppose the evolution of large masses of humanity and keep it at the level it ought, to be.
"For instance, the evolution of humanity beyond a certain point, or, to speak more correctly, above a certain percentage, would be fatal for the moon. The moon at present feeds on organic life, on humanity. Humanity is a part of organic life; this means that humanity is food for the moon. If all men were to become too intelligent they would not want to be eaten by the moon"
"The influence of the moon upon everything living manifests itself in all that happens on the earth. The moon is the chief, or rather, the nearest, the immediate, motive force of all that takes place in organic life on the earth. All movements, actions, and manifestations of people, animals, and plants depend upon the moon and are controlled by the moon. The sensitive film of organic life which covers the earthly globe is entirely dependent upon the influence of the huge electromagnet that is sucking out its vitality. Man, like every other living being, cannot, in the ordinary conditions of life, tear himself free from the moon. All his movements and consequently all his actions are controlled by the moon. If he kills another man, the moon does it; if he sacrifices himself for others, the moon does that also. All evil deeds, all crimes, all actions, all heroic exploits, as well as all the actions of ordinary everyday life, are controlled by the moon"
Come to think of it, it was Don Juan and these words that led me here....well and a few others :)
The sun set, and up rose the yellow moon:
The devil's in the moon for mischief; they
Who call'd her CHASTE, methinks, began too soon
Their nomenclature; there is not a day,
The longest, not the twenty-first of June,
Sees half the business in a wicked way,
On which three single hours of moonshine smile–
On them she looks so modest all the while.
There is a dangerous silence in that hour,
A stillness, which leaves room for the full soul
To open all itself, without the power
Of calling wholly back its self-control;
The silver light which, hallowing tree and tower,
Sheds beauty and deep softness o'er the whole,
Breathes also to the heart, and o'er it throws
A loving languor, which is not repose.
Well, if I may share with you the last thing I found curious about the moon, its that there seems to be many people claiming to be taking the temperature of the moon light in shade vs. no shade and getting the results of moon light being warmer in the shade than out of it. Results keep showing that moonshade is warmer than direct moonlight. Thats opposite of the sun....but I was told that moonlight is reflected from the sun?? Sounds like a pretty easy experiment...no "degree" required, I'll have to try that
Who knows....i do find the unknown interesting though.
Mahalo Solie~ I'm very grateful for the exchange~
