Here's when to see the upcoming supermoons and biggest meteor shower of the year.
Two supermoons, including one "blue moon," will be glowing in the night sky in August 2023. This is a supermoon photographed by New Jersey resident Teri Abramson as it was rising above houses in Ocean County in 2016.Supermoons are moons that become full when their orbits are closer than average to the Earth — making them appear to be slightly bigger and as much as 30% brighter than ordinary full moons, especially when they begin to rise.
Although the precise definition varies in the astronomy world — and some experts say the average star gazer won’t notice the size and brightness difference — many say a supermoon is a moon that tracks less than 223,000 miles from the Earth during its full phase.
