This weekend, apparently, the full moon is a “supermoon”. It’s closer than it’s been in 100 years.

Perigee Moon – because the moon’s path is elliptical, it does it annually. A few dodgy media outlets have been claiming once in a century but it actually won’t get as close as it did last year, about 400miles further away. So for those who don’t see it tonight first hand, pencil it in for next year.

great shot of the supermoon from last night.

I now await the annual media overdose around August, of the “Once in a thousand year” approach of Mars where “it will appear as big in the sky as the moon” etc etc bullshit bullshit. Every year without fail some media outlet runs with this crap.

Looks like a mongrel moon to me.
