Skywatchers are in for a treat Tuesday when a super pink moon
lights up the sky.
“The moon will rise on the evening of 7 April and burn brightly all night long. You may even see it cast moon shadows on the ground,” explains Zoltan Toth-Czifra, founder of Under Lucky Stars, in a statement emailed to Fox News.
The pink moon, or April full moon, is the closest supermoon of the year, which means that it is the largest, according to EarthSky.
Supermoons happen when the moon’s elliptical orbit brings it to the closest point to the Earth while the moon is full. The phrase was coined in 1979, according to NASA."
