Yeah, but the Moon's hardly there! It must only occupy the smallest
proportion of the sky, and half the time it's on the Sun's side (and I
don't imagine very many cosmic bodies come from that side of the sky,
but IANA astronomer). I would've thought our atmosphere was more
important in protecting us.
