Jakarta –

In this month, there is an event Full moon “Buck Moon“

The peak of the full moon phase occurs at dawn. The following is complete information.

Quoting from the Space site, the name Buck Moon originated from the time in North America during male deer, known as Bucks, began to grow its horns. Sometimes also called ‘Thunder Moon’, referring to the summer storm that often hit a part of the US in July.

The full moon in July will look very low in the sky after sunset. This is mostly caused by close to the turning point of the summer sun, when the sun is at the highest point in the daytime sky, and the moon follows a low path throughout the night.

According to the Almanac website, the full moon in July is called buck moon because male deer horns are in full growth mode at this time. Male deer releases and re -growing its horns every year, producing larger and more impressive horns over time.

Buck Moon Schedule 2025

Based on information from BMKG, the full moon in July is known as Buck Moon. This term originated from the American native who observed that in July, there was a re -growth of male deer horns after the mating season.

Buck Moon 2025 occurs at:

  • Peak Purnama Phase: July 10, 2025 at 03.36 WIB
  • Earth Distance – Moon During the Purnama Phase July 10, 2025: 390,730 km

In comparison, the distance of the earth – the month during the Purnama Apogee phase April 13, 2025 is 406,006 km. Then, the distance of the earth – the month during the Purnama Perige phase on November 5, 2025 is 356,980 km.

How to see buck moon July 2025

Launching the Space page, the best time to see the full moon in July is a few hours after the month of publication on July 10, when the moon disk will look bigger than the actual size, thanks to ‘the illusion of the Moon’.

You can also see Buck Moon turning into a golden or reddish hue shortly after publication. This warm hue is caused by rayleigh scattering, the same effect that causes the sunset and colorful sunrise.

This happens because the sunlight reflected from the moon must travel further distances through the Earth’s atmosphere to reach us when under the horizon than when it is right above the head, which causes more light in a blue wavelength to spread, while allowing the reder wavelength to enter.

Don’t Miss Monday’s Moon Encounter With The Largest Star You Can See

written by Rachel Kim – Technology Editor

Skywatchers will be treated to a striking celestial pairing soon after sunset on Monday, July 7, as the moon passes close to one of the largest stars visible to the naked eye.

Now, just a few days from being full, the moon will be very bright and make stars hard to see in the night sky, but Antares won’t be missed. This red supergiant will shine to the upper right of the moon.

Meet The ‘Rival Of Mars’

Table of Contents

Antares is a red supergiant star — a dying star. The 15th brightest in the night sky, it’s one of the largest stars we know of. If it was in the solar system in place of the sun, Antares would stretch all the way to between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. According to BBC Sky At Night, Antares is 76,000 times more luminous than the sun.

Its name means the “rival to Mars,” with ant meaning anti and Ares referring to the Greek name for Mars. It gets that name not only because it’s reddish but because Mars sometimes passes close to Antares.

As the brightest star in the constellation Scorpius — a constellation best known for its curved “tail” — Antares is often called the “heart of the scorpion.”

When And Where To Look And What You’ll See

To catch this event, head outside shortly after sunset and find a clear view of the southeastern sky. The 92%-lit waxing gibbous moon will already be visible long before it gets dark, but as twilight begins, Antares will appear, glowing about four degrees above it. The moon will be around 248,145 miles (399,350 kilometers) from Earth, while Antares is about 550 light-years distant — a whopping 13 million billion times farther!

From mid-northern latitudes, only part of the Scorpion’s body rises above the southern horizon during the summer months. But even from these latitudes, the constellation’s claws — Achrab, Dschubba and Fang—should be visible above Antares.

Observing Tips

All you need for this sight is your naked eyes and a clear sky to the southeast. A stargazing app like Stellarium might help you locate the stars of Scorpius.

What’s Next In The Night Sky

If you can rise before the sun on Tuesday, July 8, you’ll see Venus shine brightly at its highest point in the morning sky during its current apparition. Although July 8 sees its highest point, it will be easy to see in the pre-dawn darkness until around July 21.

For exact timings, use a sunrise and sunset calculator for where you are, Stellarium Web for a sky chart and Night Sky Tonight: Visible Planets at Your Location for positions and rise/set times for planets.

Wishing you clear skies and wide eyes.
