Isn't it weird that no matter where you are on Earth, we all see the same sun and moon?

You tell me

I don't think it's weird, though, so I don't know what to tell you

Isn’t weird how one comes at night and the other during day? It’s like the earth is a spinning ball

The moon can be seen sometimes during the day.

I like the moon
>>
>>39155597
Almost like it orbits us and we orbit the sun
Amazing how that works

No it isn't.
Why would you worry about it?
Don't worry about it.
It's not worth the bother.

But we don't. Wherever you are standing, at whatever moment in time, gives you a very slightly different view to even the person standing right next to you. The light which reaches your eyes is not the same as that which reaches their eyes.

Of course with the distances and sizes of the sun and moon, it makes no practical difference. But it can be a metaphor for our own individual experience of the world. Junk thread fail.

It's just a coincidence.

We don't actually all see the moon the same way.
If you live on the equator the moon will look way fuckin' bigger than if you live father north. I actually fortunate enough to be visiting Ecuador during a full moon - it was the most beautiful moon I've ever seen, and probably ever will.
Your view of the moon will also differ depending on if you're looking at it from the southern or northern hemisphere, due to the angle/tilt of the planet. Pic related.
Furthermore, the seasonal tilt of the planet also shifts and alters our view of the moon - making it look a little bit bigger or smaller.

Pic related is another image to demonstrate that second point:
Same date, same moon, from different angles.
