whats strange also is that of all the orbits it could have settled in around the earth it settled on exactly the distance between the earth and sun that makes it a perfect fit for a full eclipse, pretty spooky i reckon

Also with very sensitive thermometer shows the moon light is cooler then moon shade.

I can't say I agree with that, however, there is one really strange thing about the moon. The "Moon Illusion" . When the moon appears very large when it first rises. I saw it like this once as it rose, seeming as if it was just over a house down the street (maybe 450n - 600 feet away), and it dwarfed the house itself. I could see fine detail on the surface. They have no explanation, and I don't either. The below pic is from a Sky and Telescope article that is titled "Moon Illusion is all in Your Head". LOL.
