Supermoon on the rise
The Harvest Moon graced the sky Monday, and the view was spectacular.
October’s supermoon, which appeared in the evening sky last night, is the first of three this year.
A supermoon happens when a full moon is closer to Earth in its orbit. That makes the moon look up to 14% bigger and 30% brighter than the faintest moon of the year, according to NASA.
In Monday’s viewing, the moon passed within about 224,600 miles of Earth.
The closest supermoon of the year is slated for November, followed by another in December.
The spectacles in skies continue in 2026 with two lunar eclipses: a total eclipse across much of North America, Asia and Australia in March, and a partial one in August across the Americas, Africa and Europe.
