EARTHRISE is NOT a natural phenomenon, and if you're standing on the moon, you'll never see it. The moon always keeps the same side facing the earth. The reason the Apollo 8 astronauts (and those of Apollo 10 through 15) saw it is that they were orbiting around the moon. As they came around from the far side to the near side, the earth appeared to rise in their "sky".
... and Bill Anders did not take his famous photo while on the moon, of course. Apollo 8 never landed on the moon. He took the picture from lunar orbit, above the moon.
HIGH TIDE comes twice a day, and isn't something that's warned about. High surf, maybe, or rip tide, but not HIGH TIDE.
While MEAD is fermented from honey, it is not generally sweetened, and often a very dry wine.
Shouldn't the clue for 32D be "Vampire bat features", plural?
SOMETHING is singular. DONKEY EARS is plural. Aren't clues and answers are supposed to match?
