Super Moon Rising
Friday night we witnessed the last supermoon of the year. Jeff O’Donnell was there to watch its rise:
6:54 pm
7:18 pm
A supermoon—aka a Beaver moon—is a full moon or a new moon that nearly coincides with perigee—the closest that the Moon comes to the Earth in its orbit—resulting in a slightly larger-than-usual apparent size of the lunar disk as viewed from Earth. The technical name is a perigee syzygy or a full Moon around perigee. Jeff O’Donnell captured in the morning sky: 6:45 and 7:18.
