We are blessed with an unusual geometry that allows us to view the atmosphere of our home star without leaving the ground. In fact, this is temporary; the moon continues to slowly move away from us at the rate of 4 cm. (1.6 in.) per year. This is also lengthening our day by about 20 microseconds per year.
