our job

Saw a great post by Richard Garrard on Facebook regarding the "Blood Moon."

People also got/get excited about solar eclipses, comets, "falling stars"...  they're reactions of ignorance.  It shows that we need to do more to educate them.  The good news is that celestial events can be dramatic and thought-provoking;  we just need to lead them in the direction of knowledge and away from the merchants of the stupid.

We need to help people under the Universe around them.
