08.01.2022 As night sets in tonight, November 14, wander outside and gawk at the sky. If the weather is clear, the moon will be at its biggest and brightest in nearly 70 years, and it won't put on a similar display until late 2034, astronomers say. The biggest and brightest moon in 70 years to light-up the sky. A so-called "supermoon" occurs when the moon is not only full, but is orbiting close to Earth. This month's full moon will be the closest to Earth since January 26, 1948. NASA sa...ys a supermoon - technically called a perigee moon - can appear to be as much as 14 per cent bigger and 30 per cent brighter than a full moon at its furthest orbital point. But NASA says the November 14 moon could, arguably, even be called an "extra-supermoon", and here's why. Since the moon has an elliptical orbit, one side of the orbit (the perigee) is about 48,000 kilometres closer to Earth than the other side (the apogee). When the Earth, moon and sun line up in an orbit, while the moon is on its nearest approach to Earth, we are treated to a so-called supermoon. This happens three times this year: on October 16, November 14 and on December 14. But, on the middle date, the moon becomes full just two hours after its closest approach to Earth. "On November 14, it becomes full within about two hours of perigee - arguably making it an extra-supermoon," NASA says. "The full moon of November 14 is not only the closest full moon of 2016 but also the closest full moon to date in the 21st century. The full moon won't come this close to Earth again until November 25, 2034." While the moon would look spectacular on the night, Perry Vlahos, the vice-president of the Astronomical Society of Victoria, said stargazers would probably not notice any difference between the three supermoons this year. "The difference between other close moons would only be, in some instances, 100, 200 or 300 kilometres. To the human eye, that is almost imperceptible from a distance as great as that," he said. But he said that many people never watched the moon rise. Low-hanging moons could create what was known as a moon illusion: when the moon appears unusually large while coming over the horizon. He advised those wanting to watch the supermoon rise on November 14 to head at dusk to an east-facing beach, or to the top of a hill or mountain with uninterrupted views to the east. See more

03.01.2022 We are now into week two of the CCCSE 2017 Academic Year. There is still plenty of time to enrol in the subjects on offer; Accounting, Biology, Chemistry, English, Modern History, Physics, Mathematics A and B, English Communication, Prevocational Mathematics, Creative Arts - Visual Art Studies, Hospitality Practices and Information and Communications Technology. Take the leap... you won't regret it!

02.01.2022 Adult learning Learning is a lifelong activity and continues well beyond the completion of school. Adult learners can be described in 5 groups:... Lifelong learners Adults who have had good experiences of learning and want to continually expand their skills, knowledge and interests. Reluctant learners Adults who have had bad experiences of school and learning who need a lot of encouragement to give learning another go if it is in a formal environment. Breaking barriers learners Adults who want to learn more but have barriers to taking part in adult learning such as lack of family support, isolation and or poverty. Community builders Adults who want to learn with others in order to participate in their community and expand the quality of their relationships. Foundation learners Adults who missed out on the schooling they need and want to be able to read, write, speak, and listen more effectively and to improve their basic maths skills. Also adults whose first language is not English who want to improve their English reading, writing, speaking and listening.

01.01.2022 Check out tonight's SUPERMOON! What am I looking at? Keen-eyed observers will be able to pick out lunar landmarks. The maria, the moon's low-lying seas, are the darker patches. Apollo 11's famous landing site is on the easterly edge of the Sea of Tranquility. The Tycho crater and Copernicus crater are the lighter-coloured circles. Remember, too, that we see the moon "upside down" compared to those in the northern hemisphere. ... If I miss it, can I see it again? Sure. If you want to skip an astronomical showstopper on this scale, you can see another one ... on November 25, 2034. But there will be another supermoon next month, albeit not at perigee. December's supermoon will occur on the 14th, when the moon's orbit will place it 360,390 kilometres from Earth 3837 kilometres further away from us than November's supermoon. What is a supermoon anyway? A supermoon occurs when you have a combination of two things: a full moon and the moon at perigee the point in its orbit when it is approaching Earth at its closest. On November 14, this will bring the moon 50,000 kilometres closer to Earth. Why is this one so special? This isn't just any supermoon. This monster will appear up to 14 per cent bigger and 30 per cent brighter than an average full moon when it travels across the night sky on November 14. It's the biggest one is almost 70 years. That's pretty special. This is because the moon is, astronomically speaking, close to Earth at a mere 356,553 kilometres away. It'll be 18 years until it's this close to us again.
