**The Moon Tonight** Is The Corner Cut Off? Triangular Structure?

What is up with the shape of the moon tonight? When I looked up it appeared as if the two corners were cut off, so I took some pictures. What do you think? And what is that triangular structure at the bottom?

Corner?

Zetatalk recently said that at times the moon is being illuminated by both the sun and Planet x, causing curious appearances, for what that is worth.

@byrdsmaniac Interesting.

Those are great photos. What kind of camera did you use? Photographing the moon with a digital camera always just gets me a white blur.

@HemmHon Canon Power Shot SX10IS 10 mp 20X zoom

when i was young i had dreams thatt to this day everyone who i told them to said they predicted the futer,only tthe realy clear ones though....i havent had one f them in years .i also neer have bad dreams.but recently i had a dream that the the moon was broken , and out of it came crystals that came down to earth as light as a feather.....do you think that means anything???

don't worry about the moon ,lots of web work on the way the moon looks,it is stuck in a fixed orbit ,if you watch it enough it will fascinate you ,you might even fall in love,but it is perfectly normal...tom

LOL.... Im a surveyor so I know mapping and if you look at a topo of that area of the moon you will see that area is mountainess which creates more of a shadow in that region. Just like on Earth.

Hey Kelli,, Thanks for the quick response.. I took some yesterday, and uploaded to my facebook( same name as here ) I take mine with a Fujifilm s2940 with 14 mp and 18 x optical zoom ( 120 with optical and digital ) I see the same or similar rounded corner of the moon...Very nice photo by the way..

I don't see anything strange but what is strange is that i just finished Ingo Swann's "Penetration: The question of human and extraterrestrial telepathy". He says a lot about the moon and what's really going on there.
