I love to look back to see what happened on this day in history.
The Great Moon Hoax happened on 8/25/1835; the New York Sun ran a series of satire articles stating that astronomers…
“had found evidence of life forms on the moon, including such fantastic animals as unicorns, two-legged beavers and furry, winged humanoids resembling bats. The articles also offered vivid description of the moon’s geography, complete with massive craters, enormous amethyst crystals, rushing rivers and lush vegetation.“
and people believed this incredible story!
