When the Moon is full, as it rises on the horizon, sometimes it looks like a big cheese. People can swear that it is bigger near the horizon than up there in the sky. Is this a Moon Illusion? Why does this happen?

We have prepared a template to help you produce your own MoonDays poster with the phases of the Moon. A colored poster in English ready to print and space enough for students to place the images they capture and text they wish to add. This can be done manually (glue) on the printed poster or importing the pdf poster into adequate software for desktop publishing and adding more contents in there.
If you appreciate the Moon and you have the privilege to travel around our planet you certainly have already noticed that from different parts of the globe the Crescent Moon looks different. Why is that?
In this “You are Galileo” project, you will use a telescope similar to Galileo’ s and re-discover the surprises that Galileo found.
