        @neiltyson Wow. I knew the moon was big. But I didn't think it had enough mass to warp time that severely. Amazing. I love science.

        @ThrillScience @neiltyson Passover is based on Jewish calendar, which is lunar-based. They'd have adjusted.

        @neiltyson religious celebrations were based off of science before they knew what science was. #Irony.
