You can see the whole Earth from the Moon!

Astronomers have established moonlight would have played on the shutters of Frankenstein author Mary Shelley’s bedroom on the night she always said it did – the night she thought up the plot of her famous novel.

Astronomers in Texas have used the light of the moon to highlight the hour of creation for Victor Frankenstein and his notorious monster – and defend the memory of their teenage creator, Mary Shelley.

The inspiration came in a waking dream between 2am and 3am on the morning of 16 June 16, 1816, they explain in the November issue of Sky and Telescope.
