It's the atmosphere scattering the light that makes it orange, and it only looks big because it appears closer to the horizon

Can you imagine that the sky could be overcast where i am, imagine that, the weather could be different outside of ireland!

ironictoaster · 10-08-2009 9:41pm

I had a look outside there, the moon is indeed very orangey tonight.

Orange?

That's the sun my friend.

Nuggles · 10-08-2009 9:45pm

I'm in conamara, I see no moon either.

I'd say he's looking at it through a quality street sweet wrapper, giving the moon an orange colour.

WIZE · 10-08-2009 9:45pm

it looks orange alright

That makes no sense, you know that right?

I see no moon, praiseach's captors must have painted an orange blob on the blacked out window to please him.

praiseach · 10-08-2009 9:50pm

Nuggles · 10-08-2009 9:51pm

I think it's a moon around harvest time.

Guessing.

During the eighties in Dublin you would get a blood red moon for several nights in a row.

if you put one standing on the others shoulders it looks like a scene from 'once upon a time in the west'

wudangclan · 10-08-2009 10:15pm

and if you move the little guy off-screen it looks like a scene from 'last man standing'
