Mysteries of the Moon
For thousands of years, mankind has found comfort in its
presence. It's been a lantern for nighttime travelers, a
timekeeper for farmers, and a location finder for sailors
at sea. For some cultures, it's even been a god. It's the
only cosmic body ever visited by human beings. From afar,
the Moon's luminance has captivated us since the beginning
of time. And a closer look at the beacon in the dark sky
reveals an ever-present source of myth, intrigue,
controversy and unsolved mysteries. The field of science
may cast an empirical light on some things about the
Universe, but lunar experts are the first to admit they
don't have all the answers when it comes to our Moon. This
episode explores the theories behind Lunar Transient
Phenomena that have left scientists stumped for centuries;
takes to the Canadian waters to see how the Moon effects
our planet through tides; and dusts off some age-old myths
and weighs arguments that without our Moon, humanity may
not even exist.
We know who we are, where we came from, and why we're here. Do you?
