Popular Legends and Myth concerning the lunar effect

There are many myths and legends concerning the lunar effect. A very famous legend is about when the moon is full, werewolves come out. There is also induced lunacy to epileptic seizures.

Interview with a Lunar Scientist

Thank You!

DLR is a planetary scientist states that the Moon is the next logical

step to take in the intensive exploration of Earth’s immediate vicinity

(laughter). After all, it is only two days away.If we genuinely wish to embark on

manned missions to the Moon once again, and perhaps even stay there for an extended

period of time, we first need to understand more about it. In particular, the question of water is

and remains a crucial one. The 2018 Lunar Lander mission being planned by ESA

is to land at the Moon’s south pole. This would, in my view, constitute an important

scientific step forward. The Moon is a good testing ground for space

technologies and for basic research in the natural sciences, especially in

regard to finding answers to questions about the history of the young

Earth, and about the development of life on our planet.

What is the Lunar Cycle

The Lunar Cycle is the Moon's repeated pattern of movement and changes in appearance due to its revolution around Earth.

Interview:Cultural Anthropologists

Cultural Anthropologist, James Todd believes that "Culture is a system of knowledge, beliefs, patterns of behavior, artifacts, and institutions that are created, learned and shared by a group of people. The lunar effect,has no affect by this whatsoever.

The belief that the full moon can affect behavior has made humans more likely to believe that someone is crazy during a full moon. Police even have extra officers patrolling the streets on a full moon.

How Science Backs Up the Lunar Effect

~Astronomers primary responsibilities are to study and observe space.

~Cultural Anthropologist primary responsibilities are to study human cultures.

~Lunar Scientists primary responsibilities are to study the moon.

The moon has been proven to affect the tides and movement of large bodies of water. Since the human body is made up of 80% water, many people believe that the full moon can also affect the moist tissue of the brain.

Scientific Evidence that Refutes the Lunar Effect

The Lunar Effect

Scientists believe that the Lunar Effect does not affect animals and humans. Though the moon can affect the ocean tides, it can not affect a contained body of water, like the water in our bodies.
