thewayneLove me some XKCD!
If you click on the link to the comic, there's hover text if you let your mouse pointer linger over the image.
When I first started dating my wife, driving back and forth from Phoenix to Cloudcroft (not quite 500 miles), it gave me a whole new appreciation for the night sky and hatred for light pollution, and also for how fast celestial objects move. Photographing the lunar eclipse reinforced how fast the moon's orbit is, that's for sure! (it also reinforced how badly I need to either take apart and deep clean my tripod head, which I failed to do when I was in Phoenix two weeks ago, or to replace it, which I can't afford to do right now)
