Oh for Ares’ sake. This again?, Phil Platt asks on slatecom.Yup, it’s August, and that means it’s time for the annual “two Moons in the sky” Facebook hoax.
Maybe you’ve seen it; it starts to go viral around this time of the year. It’s also sometimes sent around with a note saying, “Mars will be as big as the Moon,” Platt reports.
Let’s get this out of the way immediately: No. It’s baloney. It isn’t true this year, it wasn’t true in 2013, or 2009, or 2008, or 2007, or 2006, or 2005, or even when it first began back in 2003, he writes.
