Does Anything Ever Happen on the Moon?
Not Rated
S22 • E11 Sep 14, 1978The moon has long been regarded as a dead world; but is this completely true? Astronomers have described faint coloured patches and local ' fogs', which are sometimes thought to be gases seeping through from below the ground. Patrick Moore discusses these ' transient phenomena', and also describes the eclipse of the moon which will take place on 16 September.
