    I just read your comment, and was, the moon surely is bigger than Australia. It turns out the moon’s diameter is about half the width of Australia going east to west. So, TIL, thanks for that.

      Huh, i had to check this out as well. The moon’s diameter is about half the size i had in mind. I thought it was about half of Earth’s diameter. I guess talk about the moon being uncommonly large for Earth’s size, has slowly skewed my view or something…
