Moonlit skies over the Chinese city of Chengdu may soon get a boost from a second moon.

City officials recently announced plans to build an artificial moon, launching it to hang over Sichuan province's capital city by 2020, Chinese news site People's Daily Online (PDO) reported.


quote:

light from the artificial moon is expected to save the city money by doing away with the need for streetlights, Chunfeng added. The new moon will be capable of illuminating an area of up to 50 miles (80 kilometers) in diameter, according to PDO.

Just keep that shite away from Central Florida in November and December. Full moons screw up duck hunting big time.

2 moons for 3 billion Chins, ratio is still a bit off.

Hell, if the actual moon stayed over China all the time, they wouldn't need a second one.

New York is getting a New Moon on Nov. 7th. It's not a big thing.
