Did everyone take photos of last night's supermoon?
Huge, round, and bright!
The moon is really beautiful!
What? You missed it?
It's okay, you can see it again,
Don't miss this time!
According to scientific predictions,Beijing time 3:48 AM on March 10th,the sun, Earth, and moon will align approximately in a straight line, at which point the moon will be at its fullest, with a distance from Earth of approximately 35.74 million kilometers.On March 10th at 3:30 PM, the moon will be even closer to Earth, at approximately 35.72 million kilometers, the moon is full,and less than 13 hours from the time when it is closest to Earth. These two timing points are usually less than 24 hours apart and are both considered supermoons,This year, only March 10th and April 8th meet the above criteria,Astronomers say that the one on the 10th,this 'supermoon' will be smaller and less bright than the one on April 8th,because on April 8th, the moon will be closer to Earth. However, from a viewing perspective, the supermoon on the 10th will still look very bright. People can start to notice the round moon slowly rising from the northeast starting on March 9th, and it is also a good time to watch the moon on March 10th,
A supermoon is a full moon when the moon is near its closest point to Earth,Because the moon orbits Earth in an elliptical orbit, the distance between the moon and Earth is constantly changing, so when it's full, the moon appears larger. Many astronomers believe that, from a scientific point of view, calling it a 'perigee full moon' is more appropriate. Supermoons are not uncommon, and they occur several times a year on average,The largest 'supermoon' of this century appeared on November 14, 2016,
