I intended to get some shots of the "Hunters" Super Moon last night but clouds got in the way...
There's another so-called "super" Moon next month so I'll try again.
The technical term for a supermoon is perigee-syzygy of the Earth-Moon-Sun system. In astronomy, the term syzygy refers to the straight-line configuration of three celestial bodies.
And that's what we call it a super moon.
National Geographic reports:
Next month’s supermoon promises to be the most impressive, as it will be the largest full moon visible in our skies so far this century.
Also Coming up:
