Exactly: “@neiltyson: July’s full moon is to August's "Super Moon” what a 16.0 inch pizza is to a 16.1 inch pizza. I’m just saying.”
@drhli @neiltyson Good comparison since the Moon is made of cheese!
@neiltyson but a 16.1 inch pizza is actually bigger, while a "super moon" is like calling a truck moving an inch closer to you a super truck
@neiltyson But January's is a 14 inch pizza by comparision! The apogee/perigee difference is significant *and* can be seen. #doyourmathfirst
please be quiet @neiltyson
@neiltyson @riley_fox What? Does this make my last tweet less, the same, or more funny? Please advise.
@LarryFulford Don't look to me for answers, @neiltyson's the fancypants scientist over here!
@riley_fox @neiltyson I copied you both because science.
“@neiltyson: July’s full moon is to August's "Super Moon” what a 16.0 inch pizza is to a 16.1 inch pizza. I’m just saying.” @Shout92
@neiltyson @nffcnnr But this one goes to 11
@jdruebert i think people just like saying "super moon"
@nffcnnr can't really blame them I suppose. And if it gets people outside looking at the sky it's a good thing
@jdruebert agreed.
I love pizza. RT @neiltyson: July’s full moon is to August's "Super Moon” what a 16.0 inch pizza is to a 16.1 inch pizza. I’m just saying.
.@neiltyson so you're saying the Moon got bigger?
@bellyofawhale @neiltyson no it is a little closer to earth right now so it looks a little bigger
@OKterrific65 Ok listen up nerd. A 16.1 inch pizza is bigger than a 16 inch pizza. Therefore the Moon is bigger.
