Anyway, it doesn't change the HC dead end position generally regarding this "HC Moon-nightmare"
Within first (old) hypothesis the Moon revolves around the Earth daily with the speed of 17,280 km/hour, so it takes 24 hours for Moon to cross 414 720 km. It is obviously much less than 2 386 400 km which is allegedly lenght of the Moon's orbit within today's (new) HC hypothesis.
So, 414 720 / 2 / 3,14 = 60 988 = distance between the Earth and the Moon (old hypothesis)
60 988 / 12 800 = 4,7 = number of the diameters of the Earth (old hypothesis)
So, within this (old) hypothesis, shadow of the Earth (since the Moon is just 4,7 Earth's diameters away from the Earth) would be pretty much in accordance with the main point of old objections to that old HC Moon theory, regarding eclipses of the Moon!
Now, 414720 / 32 = 12960 / 288 km (180 mi) = 45 min. So, it was wrong to say that the Moon needs 4 minutes to pass through the shadow of the Earth, needed time is about 10 times more than that, but that amount of time still presents too fast motion for producing eclipses which has been known to have been extended up to 4 hours.
However, eclipses of the Moon maybe had not even been the first main reason for major changes of HC theory regarding "Moon nightmare problem".
Anyway, within a NEW theory we have got what we have:
12 800 (diameter of the Earth) / 3200 km/h (NEW speed of the Moon) = 4 hours (EXACTLY - anything suspicious???)
But, Huston, we got a problem:
From that distance (380 000 km) the shadow of the Earth would be almost 4 times LARGER than the diameter of the Earth!!! So, you losers lose again!!!

And as i explained before, the much bigger problem for this NEW theory is the "apparent" motion of the Moon which should be much slower than "apparent" motion of the Sun, but unfortunately for HC liars the "apparent" motion of the Moon is much faster than the "apparent" motion of the Sun!!!
And finally, this is just one additional (not crucial at all) among countless examples of falsity of HC fraud theory!!!
to reality!!!
