I want to step away from the stupidity for a second and appreciate what an incredible cosmic coincidence it is that the Moon is exactly far enough away from the Earth to be visibly the same size as the Sun.
And considering the Moon is slowly moving away, that civilization rose at exactly the right time to notice and appreciate things like a solar eclipse.
It's wild.
Edit: Yes, I'm aware they're not EXACTLY the same size relatively. Yes, I know they change relative size as the orbits of the Moon and the Earth dictate. Can we not be pendantic for two seconds and try to just appreciate something as it is?

u/jzillacon 2d ago
Eclipses will still happen, but there won't be total eclipses anymore and they will gradually become less and less noticeable until the moon fully escapes earth's orbit or is destroyed by some other cosmic phenomenon.
If an advanced civilization happens to still exist on Earth by that point, they might intentionally give the moon enough of a boost to put it back into eclipse range. Humans are nostalgic like that, so it stands to reason future earthlings would be too.

If your civilization has enough spare energy to move a moon then things like tides don't really matter.

u/ultronthedestroyer 2d ago
The moon won't escape Earth's orbit. The moon is moving away due to tidal forces and will eventually move far enough away, and slow Earth's rotation down enough, that the Earth and moon will become tidally locked.
What will happen is that only one side of the Earth will be able to see the moon, similarly to how only one side of the moon can see the Earth. At that point, the moon will stop moving farther away.

They are roughly the same size in the sky, but the most important thing in this context is that it actually varies by a few percent.
That's why there are total solar eclipses where the moon covers the whole thing and annular solar eclipses where you can see a ring of fire.
Conveniently, the Wikipedia article got the images for that right at the beginning of the page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_eclipse
Fun fact: Over time, we can see a bit more than half of the moon since it got a bit of a wobble:

Although I agree with the sentiment, as after all total solar eclipses are a thing to behold, they're not "exactly" the same visible size in the sky. They still differ ever so slightly, and over the course of a whole year, the distance between the Earth and the Sun compared to the distance between the Earth and our Moon also changes by a not insignificant amount.

If it looks big when rising that's just an atmospheric illusion. Not exactly sure how it works but basically because of all the atmosphere the light has to get through it causes a magnifying affect as the light gets abnormally distorted.

Nah, that's atmospheric lensing you're referring to. It can cause the moon to look a little elongated like a football but not larger in any significant way.
The reason it looks larger near the horizon is due to perspective of trees/buildings etc. If you took a caliper and measured the moon high in the sky and compared it to near the horizon, it would be roughly the same.
It's like forced perspective with Gandalf in LoTR or Buddy in Elf.

5
u/The_Reset_Button 2d ago
That's not true, it's because it's closer to the horizon which and your brain has more information about how big it could be and overestimates. It's exactly the same size to your eyes.
You can verify it's not being magnified by the atmosphere by using your thumb at arms length to check it's relative size (should be about as big as your thumbnail, than wait till it rises further and do the same thing. It will be the same size. You can also take two pictures at the same zoom level and it'll be the same amount of pixels across

u/Throwaway8789473 2d ago
The moon's orbit is elliptical. At its perigee (the closest point to the earth) it's about 25,000 miles closer to the Earth (about 10% closer) than at its apogee, thus why it looks bigger in the night sky. When you get a full moon near the perigee, that's when you get a supermoon which appears about 10% bigger in the night sky as a result.
Not that the magnification effect you're describing doesn't happen, but you can see both in the same night. The moon appears larger as it rises and gets smaller in the night sky, but if you stretch out your thumb and hold it next to the moon during a supermoon and during a micromoon, or apogee full moon, you'll be able to tell that it's smaller.
Don't trust me, trust NASA. Here's their page explaining how a supermoon works.

The moon's relative size is only roughly 11% larger (napkin math) when it's orbiting closest to us than when it's furthest away, think a lot of that perceived difference in size is mostly an illusion based on the context of where it rises in the sky.
If it rises behind a distant tall building it's gonna appear a hell of a lot larger than simply rising over the ocean where there's nothing to put it into scale.

Catholics do use the deuterocanonical books as canonical. A few other books like 3rd and 4th Maccabees and the Prayer of Manasseh were preserved in Bible appendixes because it was feared they might become lost if they were removed from publication. Early Protestant Bibles moved the deuterocanonical books into the appendix too, but later cut them out to save on paper costs.
More widely rejected books like Enoch aren't usually published in regular Bibles from what I've seen. They're generally alone or as collections of multiple apocryphal and pseudopigraphical texts.

For catholics and orthodox it is canon and part of the actual bible.The reason protestants don't use it, mostly comes down to Jews not using them, though the early church generally did use these books. Hieronymus also saw them as lesser though, but he was one of the few church fathers who did. Martin Luther also considered removing some of the New Testament books that didn't really fit his view of christianity. A lot of protestant churches, mostly European, still use them as books with value but no canonical value, Americans mostly just got rid of them around the 19th century.

They are just ācloseā to the same size and they both change apparent sizes during the orbit of the moon around the earth and earth around the sun.

It's such a goddamn shame when conspiracy theories take away from the actual, interesting truth.
The Sun is 400x larger than the Moon. The Moon is 400x closer. This literal celestial coincidence means they're both 0.5degrees in size in the sky, and it's why we have eclipses. It happens nowhere else in the Solar System (that I'm aware of), and it's only possible because our Moon is unique in its history and makeup--being a part of an early Earth that was literally smacked off of us by a collision with another planet sized object several billion years ago.
But when I try and bring cool stuff like this up in public, the only people to engage and ask questions are the ones who say that aliens must have visited humanity because how else could we have developed technology like cell phones. :(

Interestingly, the part about God making a bet with Satan has made scholars believe it was one of the earliest books to be written since Satan's depicted as the "accuser", a sort of heavenly prosecuting attorney, instead of the more modern corrupting agent of evil opposed to God.
Some of the language in it also possibly implies God is one of multiple deities (though it is ambiguous), indicating it could have come from a tradition of Monism (having an exclusive patron deity but acknowledging the existence of others) rather than total Monotheism (our deity is the only one that exists).

u/nonsensicalsite 2d ago
(having an exclusive patron deity but acknowledging the existence of others)
An interesting thing about that is I believe you could interpret the ten commandments as hinting at the existence of other gods
"Thou shalt have no other gods before me" that's not stating there are no other gods just that you will not put any of them before him
Haven't heard anyone really argue that aside from me though
since Satan's depicted as the "accuser", a sort of heavenly prosecuting attorney, instead of the more modern corrupting agent of evil opposed to God.

u/llhell 1d ago
"no other gods before me" might have this meaning in English, but the original Hebrew script does not sound like that.

That's because Satan is a heavenly prosecuting attorney. If I recall correctly, the word "devil" doesn't even show up once in the Old Testament. That's a New Testament invention.

Modern time people: Old guy in book said it so it must be true.
It is kind of funny how people both over and underestimate peoples knowledge and intelligence in the past. Back then we would have spent way more time looking at the night sky so figuring out when and where things were going to be was a consequence of that. Nowadays most of us spend most of our time indoors so we've lost that connection to the night sky so people think it is crazy that people back were able to make those predictions (even though we are talking about entire civilizations watching the same things for centuries, of course they'd develop a solid foundational understanding of what is going to happen). Same thing with the sun and the seasons. But conversely they also got a lot of things wrong because they didn't have the same tools we have today to look deeper into the problems they were trying to understand, and in those cases yeah they basically just made some shit up that they thought fit. It was not mystical knowledge being discovered, they'd just hit their limit on what they could figure out.

It is actually pretty neat that the sun and moon appear to be about the same size. It means that the sun is equally larger than the moon and further from the earth than the moon is.
