Okay, I’m not talking about CCR’s hit song. In fact, at 11:35 p.m. on May 5th there will be a full moon. It won’t be like any other full moon. As pictured below in 2011, we had a similar occurrence.
The Bible describes the moon as the lesser light of the night. This Saturday, the moon will come within 221,802 miles from Earth and predicted to be 16% brighter than normal.
Scientist report there is no reason for alarm. The slight distance difference isn’t enough to cause any weird acts of Mother Nature. However, it should be an excellent opportunity for sky gazers to view a spectacularly bright and big moon nicknamed, Supermoon.
Get ready and get your camera out! 😉
