Moonworship? At least the moon is real...

Then there's the implied definition that "looking at something for awhile" is worship.

My understanding of a solar eclipse: The moon is the second biggest thing to have ever cast a shadow on me. Neat.

Biggest is OPs mom. /s

[-] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Fourth largest, possibly. Mercury and Venus are both larger than the Moon, and they do pass in front of the Sun from the perspective of Earth. Not that the shadow would be very noticeable.

Neither Mercury or Venus cast an umbra on Earth. Also Venus hasn't done a solar transit since 2012 and won't for about a century so there's a lot of humans alive today who will never see a Venus transit.
