This weekend, we will see super moon

According to Nation Geographic, scientists forecast on December 3 we will have the opportunity to observe the largest and brightest super moon in 2017 (16% brighter and 7% larger than normal).

is a term used to refer to the phenomenon of the full moon coinciding with the day when it was in the closest area to the earth in orbit.

This is the fourth time the moon has approached the earth so close in 2017. However, at the last three times, the moon has come close to the earth in a completely dark state and cannot be observed with the naked eye.

Experts recommend that the best time to observe is just a few minutes after the sun sets in your country. At that time, the phenomenon of "moon illusion" will make the super moon become bigger and more sparkling than ever.

When the moon completely sinks into the darkness, another very beautiful scene will take place before your eyes, when it is in the middle of the bright constellation Taurus with a bull-shaped shape. If you use your fingers near your eyes to cover the full moon, you can search for an orange star named Aldebaran nearby. It is a giant star 65 light years away, regarded as the eyes of the Taurus bull. In some places, one can quickly see through this Aldebaran orange star.

It is expected that you will have two very close opportunities to watch the super moon on the full moon day, which is January 2 and January 31, 2018 .
