We had previously settled on Philadelphia. (Neither Dan nor I had the money for another place at that time with the sale of our co-op still pending.) Our marriage was unmistakably over, but we had continued cohabitating because my move to Pennsylvania was still more than one month away, just after graduation. The last time I spent time with Dan was in May, in our twelve-hundred-square-foot, two-bedroom prewar co-op in the South Bronx. There was a noticeable absence by my side, where I had always imagined my husband would have stood.Įx-husband was more accurate. I didn’t want witnesses there to confirm that this had really happened, that this celebration I had looked forward to for the last four years of medical school, and then during the four years of residency, felt more like a funeral. The truth was closer to my not wanting them to see me like this. I assumed that my brother would be preoccupied with his family or with landscaping his new home. I figured my sister would be busy with her obligations as an army lieutenant. I had told my brother and sister not to bother with the trip. I sat near the aisle, next to my mother, who was next to my stepfather. It wasn’t at all how I had pictured graduation from my emergency medicine residency at Mercy Hospital in the South Bronx would be, but it certainly was a blistering end. The following excerpt was taken from the book, The Beauty in Breaking: A Memoir by Michele Harper.

A full orbit of the Moon all around Earth takes about $27.3$ Earth days (a sidereal month) a synodic month ($29.5$ days) synchronizes with the lunar stages detected from Earth, and marks in the lunar month of a lunar calendar. Due to libration, a little more than half (about 59 percent) of the total lunar exterior can be seen. The Moon's rotation on its own axis is tidally sealed to Earth, so the same side constantly faces the planet: its near side. The Moon, which is of a gravelly silicate configuration, is without a substantial atmosphere, hydrosphere, or magnetic field. Hint: The Moon is a round cosmological body of terrestrial mass that orbits Earth, the 3rd planet in the Solar System, as the planet's only natural satellite.
