Rabbits Please Stand By: In Rare Astronomical Anomaly, Lunar New Year Brings 234th Consecutive Year of the Rat to Georgetown University

By

The Year of the Rabbit will unfortunately not apply to the hilly banks of the Potomac where Georgetown University’s campus is located. According to scholars, because the moon’s light hits the campus at a 71.31° angle and the lateral velocity of the moon is a steady 6.7 km/s, the 104 acre campus is stuck in a perpetual lunar loop. Because of this, Georgetown will once again experience the Year of the Rat, just as it has for the past 233 years.
