October Harvest Supermoon Graces Night Sky
Tap title to read story
The first supermoon of the year, October's harvest moon, will be visible from Monday night into early Tuesday. This celestial event, named for its proximity to the autumnal equinox, traditionally aided farmers. This supermoon, appearing fuller due to its closest approach to Earth, is the first of three consecutive supermoons. NASA scientist Noah Petro encourages regular observation to notice lunar changes and highlights the upcoming Artemis missions, which may see humans visit the moon soon.
