Neil Young and Miles Davis


"In the loosely related fields of planetary science and apocalyptic fiction, the phrase 'minimum orbit intersection distance,' or MOID, describes the closest point of contact between the paths of two orbiting objects. Most vividly invoked whenever an asteroid encroaches on our corner of the solar system, that bit of jargon also has its aesthetic uses. Consider the coordinates of Neil Young and Miles Davis on the evenings of March 6 and 7, 1970, at the juncture of East Sixth Street and Second Avenue in Manhattan."
