Questions about the moon

Its all rather silly anyway. Soldiers on campaign have been sleeping under the moon for millenia, with no ill effects.

Either side would be difficult to prove or disprove.  We'd have to have observations on people a fair distance from earth for a comparison.  Guess this will just have to wait until we can observe people on Mars or some other equally moonless place to get data on how people behave with no moon.

This argument about the moonlight having physical and psychological effects is complete garbage and rooted in superstition (madness, werewolves, etc).

No evidence.  Also, you are created mystery where there is none (i.e. moonlight is visible reflected light from the moon, not death-rays from Andromeda).  Less pseudoing, please.

Mars has 2 moons by the way. And no, I think thermal detonators very simple experiment would be more than enough.

Good point!Wwe could also have a control group on two moon behaviour.

Hell, do it on one of Jupters moons and you could do Multi-moon behavior lol.

Like I said, at best it would give a Null result.

Your point being? That even after such an experiment you could come up with more special pleading for why it didnt work?

That no one is making the claims you are attempting to disprove.

Obviously someone was. or we wouldnt be having this discussion.

No.  We had a discussion concerning claims.  Someone came up with an experiment that has nothign to do with claims have doesn't disprove them.  ANd here we are.

not gonna lie, i have stared at the moon for 2 hours strait, other than blinking. the only pain was the pain from not playing my Xbox360. i am no blind and i have perfect vision(just a little game deprevation is all that has happened). and!!!1 i have stared at the sun for 1 minute strait( not gonna lie.. that hurt like a bitch and i say a black and purple circle on everything for atleast an hour.

Like I said, there are plenty of sources relating to the dangers of moonlight published 20th+ century. 

I can bring up thousands of sources that will attest to the immediate discomfort of viewing hte moon without a filter, while we ignore its long term effects.

Could you please bring up a couple sources?  So far, I've heard that there are all kinds of sources, but, as I said before, the only articles I can find have to do with a disease that affects horses.

Just wanted to throw this request from page three out there.  I'm really interested in seeing some sources which attest to the dangers of moonlight.

You don't happen to eat paint chips, or sniff alot of glue, do you?

That's great...

BTW, Moonlight has basically no dangers.

Especially since it is just reflected sunlight.

proved that moonlight is not harmfull

sunlight on the other hand..hurts
