On November 14, the largest super moon in 70 years will appear

On November 14, the Moon will be closer to Earth than from January 1948. This will be the time when the Moon is closest to the Earth in the 21st century.

This time, the Moon will be 14% bigger and 30% brighter than the regular full moon. If we miss this opportunity, we have to wait until 2034 to observe the Moon so close to Earth.The super moon will be roundest and brightest at 8:52 am on November 14, according to the Eastern time of the United States, ie about 20:52 on November 14, according to Vietnam time.

According to NASA's explanation, because the Moon's orbit is elliptical, there will be times when the Moon is closest to the Earth (at the extreme point ) and away from Earth most (at the extreme point ). When at the extreme point, the distance from the Moon to Earth when compared to the extreme point is narrowed to 48,280km.

When the Sun, Moon and Earth are aligned, syzygy is created . This phenomenon occurs while the Moon is located at the extreme near-orbit that will create the phenomenon of the Super Moon, also known as perigee-syzygy . Then the Moon looks bigger and brighter than usual, so it is called the Super Moon or the full moon (perigee moon).

The Super Moon is also not too rare. This year, the Super Moon happened three times. The first time on October 16, the second time is this November and the last time is December 14th.

However, on November 14, the full moon will be in an orbital position for 2 hours, which will make the Moon the brightest in 70 years.

"The full moon on 11/14 is not only the Moon's closest time to Earth in 2016 but also during the 21st century. The full moon will not appear at such a close distance until November 25 / 2034, " NASA said.

Depending on the location of observation, it is easy or very difficult to distinguish super moon and regular full moon. If observing the moon on the top of the head where there is no object to refer to, it is difficult to know if the moon is larger than usual. But if you observe where the Moon is close to the horizon, it will cause "Moon illusion".

"The moon near the horizon looks abnormally large when viewed where there are trees, buildings or objects in the foreground. This effect is an illusion, but the truth does not spread either. This experience becomes less interesting, " NASA said.

The advice for those planning to observe the Super Moon on November 14 is to go to a place with a beautiful and dark view, avoiding the urban lights.
