Twinkies are Back!

twinkies-return

“After months of uncertainty and the patience-testing absence of America’s iconic cylindrical treat on supermarket shelves, it’s finally official — the Twinkie has returned! According to the Chicago Tribune, Twinkies, as well as a few other Hostess cake favorites, are rolling out nationwide today for the first time since Hostess shuttered and caused an eight-month-long Twinkie lull. While the snacks have in fact made it back to shelves, fans should take note that the new Twinkie owners, Apollo Global Management and C. Dean Metropoulos and Company (which bought Hostess cakes, including Ho Hos and Ding Dongs, for $400 million), have changed the recipe. The new cakes now have a longer shelf life. Instead of 26 days of freshness, the altered variety will last for 45. There’s no word yet on whether or not the recipe change has affected that classic Twinkie taste. ”

Will you buy the new Twinkies?

Supermoon Returns

“Oh, is it that time again? The time for everyone to overhype the “Supermoon”?

Yup.

You’ve probably heard about this: on June 23, the full Moon will be the biggest and brightest of the year, so it’s called the Supermoon. Let me be clear: While this is technically true, you’d never notice the difference in size or brightness by eye. The full Moon will look pretty much like every other full Moon you’ve ever seen. Which is to say, big, bright, beautiful, and completely worth your time to outside and see! But Supermoon? Not so much.

Flying Around the Earth

Here’s the deal. The Moon orbits the Earth once every month or so. As it does so, the geometry—the angles between the Moon, Earth, and Sun—change, so we see a different part of the Moon lit every night. Once per orbit the Moon is roughly opposite the Sun in the sky, so the half facing the Earth is completely lit, and we say the Moon is full. This blog post I wrote (complete with awesome video) should help.”
