Supermoon, tonight, the fifth of May! I read that it would be at its fullest at 11:35 p.m. EST, but I imagine that if you don't live on the east coast you can just convert that.

I went out earlier to see what I could see but it was hidden by too many branches.
 
Just a few moments ago, South San Francisco CA.

Moon invades SFO's landing pattern
 
The spectacular thing isn't the slightly larger appearance of the moon, it's the sudden appearance of a second, third, and fourth moons orbiting Earth, and two minimoons orbiting the moon, and the dinosaurs riding rainbows between all these new heavenly bodies, firing pistols and laughing madly. That's fairly new, I'm pretty sure it wasn't always like that.

Dont be so lame - they were reptiles - look at the way the legs come out of their body
 
In the end, I couldn't actually see the moon at that best point because it was too cloudy. I was disappointed, but at least there are pictures. (Thanks, AJM8125.)
 
Ms. Tricky claims that there is a woman in the moon, so I put that picture on power point slide and had her draw what she thought was the woman. Needless to say, it was not very convincing. Then I drew a dog in the moon. Then a cat. I think I might have actually convinced her that people can see whatever they like. I'm betting that some Christians could find Jesus.

The only thing actually depicted on the moon is the little robot girl from "Small Wonder" shooting Jared Leto, execution style, while both are wearing those Carmen Miranda giant fruit hats. This has been observed for ages and documented by both the ancient Babylonians and the Chinese.

Also if you squint it looks like a rabbit serving cake to four dogs sitting on a sofa, smoking pipes.

As for recognizable body parts, about the only well-defined thing I see is the big ol' anus there on the bottom right side of the picture. Yet nobody ever refers to the "butthole in the moon".

Hearing "butthole in the moon" would just make me assume you have a beef with Jared Leto.

I don't have a reference but I believe the Chinese used to see a female form in the Moon - In the past the forms we saw from the combination of light and dark material seems to have been definitely culturally based rather than individual perceptions.

We see the same phenomena with the constellation. With one or two exceptions, different cultures have seen different groups of stars in very different ways
