The final full moon of 2025 isn’t just beautiful—it’s revealing. Dr. Elaina Hyde joins Shane to break down what’s really happening when the moon rises high in Canada’s winter sky.

Learn why the cold moon sits higher than usual, how latitude and planetary tilt change what we see, and why Australians view the moon upside down. The conversation also touches down on NASA’s Artemis II mission and the exciting role Canada plays, including astronaut Jeremy Hansen’s journey around the moon.

Discover what makes this winter moon special, what to look for in the night sky, and why Artemis is more than just a space story—it’s a milestone for science and global collaboration.
