0.0 percent lit
This is the first time since I started "Good Night, Moon" that the New Moon was zero percent lit. It has always been at least a fraction of the surface lit as in the picture to the left. I'll be darn. I have to celebrate this day from now on. Let's see, May 17th. Nice. Did you know ET has a base on the dark side of the Moon? Think about it.
So much for anyone mining the Moon. Someone else got there already. If anyone doubts the potential to aliens occupying the Moon, ask the USA Men in Black. Seriously. The USA has it's own Men in Black. The movies are taken of the fact there are reports of these men harassing Americans that claim to have seen and/or experienced an alien presence.
