Rochester moon exhibit

[DaveL59]

just came across this, didn't even know it was going on, might have to go take a peek if I can fit it in amongst more pressing family things I need to attend to

Better hurry along as it's finishing on Weds 4 March: https://www.rochestercathedral.org/new-events/2020/2/12/museum-of-the-moon

yeah, once I've dealt with the family duties that have to take precedence over anything at the mo, I can hopefully fit it in before I'm back to work in a couple days.

so I managed to go visit the moon after seeing off relatives at the station earlier today.

It departs to New Zealand after tomorrow, pretty spectacular and the surface looked so 3D given it was a 7M diameter helium balloon covered with the HD images. Was lovely to see the look of amazement on the faces of some of the kids who'd come to see it. The night show is apparently excellent as it is internally lit but I won't be able to make that.

 

I guess the question now is...
Can I claim to have orbited the moon as I did walk right around it
