The largest Moon this year has a special name, Harvest Moon. It’s called so due to the days without electricity, farmers depended on this Moon as a light source to harvest their crops.
Why is this the largest Moon? Aren’t they always the same in sizes? The Moon we see today is around 12% larger than before as the Moon is near perigee, the side of the Moon’s lopsided orbit that comes closest to Earth.
Sadly, I am too tired to get ready my imaging platform. How lazy I am! Even if I have my astronomical equipments ready, the Moon covered by super thick clouds is impossible to be a great subject. These days, I am busy working on establishing my school Astronomical Club. I am totally exhausted.
