== Perfect Artistic Symmetry ==
 +
 +
'''''The Moon appears from the Earth to be the same size as the sun, in perfect artistic symmetry, unlike any known other planet-moon system in the entire universe.'''''
 +
 +
*Why is this sentence '''bold''' and in ''italics''? Is it a quoted headline?
 +
*The apparent size of the [[Sun]] is 31.6′ – 32.7′, the apparent size of the [[Moon]] 29.3′ – 34.1′ . What's ''perfect'' about this?
 +
*And what's artistic?
 +
*As no moon is known yet outside the solar system, the claim ''unlike any known other planet-moon system in the entire universe'' is just hyperbole.
