Last night as I was driving back to my bed I saw what seemed to be a huuuuuge moon hanging impossibly low in the sky. I was sure it had to be some sort of billboard or something similar — it was way too large and bright to be the real thing.

Today I learned from NASA (via Kottke) that I saw the Summer Moon Illusion.

Still not quite sure what caused the effect, but good to know I’m not crazy.
