It was back on this day in 2006 that everything we had been taught about the planets was wrong. It was back on this day that, My Very Educated Mother Just Served us Nine Pizzas would not longer help us to remember the order of the planets. It was back on this day that anyone born after 2001 would not know that Pluto was once a planet because scientists said it wasn't.
Every so often something in space happens that sends excitement throughout Earth. Back in the 80's it was Haley's Comet (which is something you can only see every 75 years). Every time we have a lunar or solar eclipse people get excited. However, something is happening today that is a once in a lifetime event.
I don't know about you but I love it when the moon is full and big. You know one of those moons you always see in romance movies. Well coming up on Saturday, the moon is going to be spectacular.
