How to See Where Lunar X Marks...

February 15, 2024

The Moon is waxing now, culminating in a full micromoon at the end of this month. This is the opposite of a supermoon; a micromoon is a full Moon at its most distant location from Earth.

On Friday, Feb. 16, the Moon is at first quarter, and this month, the phase gives...

February 15, 2024

Enough was enough. Someone had to challenge the current president for the Republican nomination, and it was going to be him. “My hat is in the ring,” former president Theodore Roosevelt told W. F.

A Case for the Preservation of Abandoned...

February 9, 2024

When I first moved to Lansdowne, Pennsylvania, a decade ago, I was immediately intrigued by the grand façade of the old theater in the center of town. Lansdowne, a small borough two miles southwest of Philadelphia, has the usual collection of dry cleaners and fast-food franchises, but the 1927 Spanish Revival theater stood out, both in its sense of quiet grandeur and the dark absence that radiated from its lobby. As a chronicler of abandoned places, I had to...
