... Bad Astronomy . ... Bad Astronomy : The Moon appears larger on the horizon than overhead because you are comparing it to foreground objects. Good astronomy : The Moon does appear larger on the horizon, but it is because of the way we perceive the sky. ... The most common misconception is that it is because you are unconsciously comparing the Moon to foreground objects like trees and houses, or even the horizon itself, and that makes the Moon look bigger than when it is all alone in the sky. ...

... The analysis shows, that asteroid ­ rubble pile loses its fast fragments in no time but the retaining fragments forms a compact structure immersed in dust ­ gas atmosphere, created by interaction of interplanetary medium with dispersed product of collisional evolution of asteroid. By interaction of an asteroid ­ rubble pile with interplanetary medium structures asteroid can increase its brightness on account of blowed up dust simulating phenomenon of distant comet's brightening. ...
