Yes, the moon was mega size and it happens after seventy years on earth but the sight was very beautiful and fascinating for the watchers. But its effect will be on the country on the moon was shining according to astronomy.
A Supermoon happens when a Full Moon or New Moon coincides with the Moon’s closest approach to Earth; also called perigee. A Super Full Moon looks around 12% to 14% bigger than its counterpart, the Micromoon.
The Moon’s orbit around Earth is not a perfect circle, but elliptical, with one side closer to Earth than the other.
As a result of the Moon’s elliptical orbit, the distance between the Moon and Earth varies throughout the month and the year. On average the distance is about 382,900 kilometers (238,000 miles).
The point on the Moon’s orbit closest to Earth is called the perigee and the point farthest away is the apogeeWhen a Full Moon coincides with its closest approach to Earth, it is called a Super Full Moon. A New Moon that takes places when the Moon is around its perigee is known as a Super New Moon.
A Micromoon, on the other hand, is when a Full or a New Moon is farthest from the Earth, around apogee. It’s also known as a Minimoon, Mini Full Moon, or a Mini New Moon. -
Load shedding is a regular feature here. We have a home UPS that takes care of lights, fans, tv and my pc when the current goes off.
I had plans to watch the moon but completely forgot about it.
