Look who you askin..... Try it for yourself: put your sox on your ears, wear your shirt for shorts, hat for shoes, etc, and then go howl at the moon. See if it howls back upside down or not.Mahlon said:Jack, I've always wondered. Does the moon appear to be upside down???
Actually, it not only looks upside down by our northern standard, but pitcher this: On [and near] the equator the moon will rise 'right side up' at the horizon, rise straight up [no angled climb up the sky], pass thru zenith [now is it upside right or downside up when crossing thru zenith?] then go 'upside down' and to decend 'head first' to set 'upside down' at the opposite horizon. And this will happen with or without alchohol, canabis, coca, or twinkies. Of course the equatorial view of rightside up would, to someone from New Jersey, look like a moon laying on its side.
Got that? No? OK. Go get 32 balls of kite string, an olive, a watermellon, a blimp, a very powerful flashlight, a dog, a pony, and a person from New Jersy. Time for Show-and-Tell.
