it has to be a day of half moon like today
this means if the sun is an a very big distance distance sun and moon will be 90º apart
now in the day of half moon you measure the angle between both and voila you know how much farther is the sun than the moon
i just did it today i saw the sun and the moon and measure the angle aiming to both with both arms
to my surprise it turn out the had an agle of aproximatly 70º, certainly very far from 90º
can somebody explain this?
if the angle is 70º it means the sun is 3 times farther than the moon
