    The problem here is that the Earth rotates.

    For reference, see Inconstant Moon:

    Or the TV version:

    You have been warned.

    I just came on to comment that. Larry Niven was a favorite of mine.

    Another great short story of his: Inconstant Moon (turned into an Outer Limits episode) about a man who notices the moon is /unnaturally/ bright one night, and comes to the only rational conclusion: something has happened to the sun...
