1. It's describing the phenomena of the super moon, which is when the
moon is at the parogee making the moon look 14x larger than what would
normally be seen. This happens every 18 years.
2. Astrologers and people associated with NASA and people that are
involved in weather forecasts. They need to know when it happens and
want to know why it happens.
3. To inform people about the super moon with pictures.
4. Ethos-he seemed expressive while he was talking. Logos-he used
facts to support what he was saying and they supported the pictures
that were used. Pathos-he seemed really calm which made you relaxed
and want to listen to what he had to say.
They enhanced what the reader was saying by using pictures to depict
the moon and other natural happenings. We don't think the author's
tone enhanced anything.
5. He did a very good job, he was clear and informative. His voice
made the podcast interesting. Change the intonation of his voice, and
he could have been more enthusiastic. No, because we thought his
voice was annoying.

The moon has issues on where it wants to lie in the sky. It suffers
from apogee and perigee which is changing the distance between the
earth and moon. Amateur star gazers and people that are extremely pro
npr. To inform about the March 19, 2011 super massive perigee moon.
The author uses all logos backing everything with science facts. It
coincided very well with the images in the slide show. Very
supportive. He could have been much me specific to target smaller
audience and use audio clips or sounds bytes from experts aka Bill
Nye. I would listen but only if i stumbled upon it. I would probably
not go searching for it. or anything else on npr.

1. The moon appeared to be at its largest on March 19, 2011. It has
not appeared this large since 1983.
2. The audience is for astronomers and the general public. The
language was very elementary and could be understood by many different
audiences.
3. The purpose of this slideshow was to make the viewer aware of the
phenomenon that was occurring in March of 2011.
4. Logos: There were a few definitions that appealed to logos or the
logical side.
Ethos: The language was appropriate towards the audience and
wasn't too sophisticated.
Pathos: His tone was emotional and he sounded animated towards the
topic.
5. The author did a good job delivering the slideshow because he has a
soft yet interesting tone in his voice. I felt the podcast was
interesting because it gave a definition of the occurrence and a
strategy for being able to observe it. I would listen to another show
by this author because it was interesting.

1. The Super Moon slideshow is about the Apogee and Periogee phases of
the moon. It explains the different between the 2 and how neither of
them are associated with natural disasters.
2. Anyone interested in astronomy and anyone interested in the moon
and what its affects are on the environment.
3. To inform people about the different types of super moons and when
the occur.
4. Logos- the message was clear and direct. It explained what a Super
Moon is and how they aren't distructive.
Pathos- The speakers intonation was constant throughout the slideshow
but he atleast seemed interested in what he was talking about.
Ethos-The video is from NASA so the credibility of the speaker is
promising.
5. The author delivered the slideshow very well. He was very
informative and every picture went well with what he was talking
about. We think he could've used a different tone of voice, only
because he didn't sound like he had any kind of authority. We would
listen to another slideshow by this author because he seems like he's
very knowledgeable about his subject.

about the rise of the beautiful full moon that rises every eighteen
years or so.
2. Identify the audience for this slideshow and what sorts
of information do they want or need? The audience of the slideshow
would more than likely be compose of people who like Science, people
who do research about the moon, and of moons lovers.
3. Define the purpose of this slideshow. The main purpose of the
slideshow is to inform people about the Perigee moon that rises every
eighteen years or so.
4. Discuss how the author establishes Ethos? Logos? Pathos?
How were images used as rhetorical devices? How did the author's tone
and intonation enhance the visual element (if it did)? The images were
basically and successfully used to enforce and enhance the slideshow.
The images made the text more meaningful, and they also made it easier
to visualize what the presenter was trying to explain. The author’s
tone and intonation were not attention-grabbing. His tone and
intonation were very monotonous and uninteresting.
5. Determine how effectively the author delivered the
slideshow. What made the podcast interesting? What could the author
have done differently? Would you listen to another slideshow by this
author? Why or why not?We personally think that the slideshow was not
interesting. We think that the tone and intonation need improvement.
The speaker needed more enthusiasm. We would probably not listen to
another slideshow by this author because he was not very convincing
and/or enthusiastic. The images were the good part about the
slideshow, but not the text.
Summarize the slideshow in a sentence or three.
This slideshow was well put together and organized. It was mainly
about the rise of the beautiful full moon that rises every eighteen
years or so.

1. The slideshow is about the super moon that comes once every 18
years.
2. The audience of the slideshow would be people in the US because no
matter where they are, they’ll get a chance to see the Super moon.
Other countries would definitely see the moon in a different light and
it may not seem as amazing to them as it would to people in the US.
People would want to know when the super moon would take place.
3. The purpose is to question whether or not it really is a super moon
or just our eyes being tricked by an illusion. Is the moon really any
bigger or is it just an illusion.
4. The interactive visuals pushed what he said while the stationary
pictures were just there in relation to what he was saying. They
didn’t really add any extra information to what he said. The author’s
tone dragged the entire slideshow. His voice didn’t really match the
topic. The topic was very interesting but his voice wasn’t.
5. The author delivered the slideshow very dryly. It just seems like
he was reading from a sheet of paper. The author didn’t have any range
in his tone, he was completely flat. I think that the author could
have had more emotion in his presentation. I definitely would not
listen to anything else by this author because he just seems like this
was a torture task.
