Supermaan on the way: larger and brighter than usual – Drenthe

On Monday you can see a so-called super moon. The full moon then seems much larger than normal. The moonlight is also brighter than with a usual full moon. The super moon would be best seen at the beginning of the evening, Weeronline reports.

Eve is the moment when the moon rises and appears to be the largest. There are then clearings, but the clouds are increasing from the west. The moon appears Monday about 7% larger and 14% brighter than normal. That is because the moon is closer to the earth than an average full moon.

Few times a year

The super moon occurs a few times a year. Supermans always follow each other, because the moon is close to earth one half of the year and far away the other half of the year. The next super moon is on April 8.
