Since the moon is slowly spiralling away from the earth, in the past it was closer, and appeared larger, and in the future, it will be further away, and smaller. The annular eclipses demonstrate this is already starting to happen. Edit Form You may not post a new comment, because ItemID ChessboardMath8 does not match any item.
