Anyone who wants to see a really beautiful moon should look up at the sky this evening. This is when the first supermoon of the year occurs.
The moon is then experienced as both larger and as shining brighter than usual. This is because it is extra close to the Earth.
The difference between a micromoon, at its farthest, and the supermoon is about 14 percent in size. It also shines about 30 percent brighter.
This time the moon will be 361,969 kilometers from Earth. Normally, the moon is 356,500 kilometers from Earth when it is closest, and 406,700 kilometers when it is farthest.
But it’s not the only supermoon this year. The next time will be September 18, followed by October 17 when it will be the closest this year. The last time will be November 15, at approximately the same distance as now.
