Next Tuesday, the Moon will reach perigee, its closest point to Earth. It will acquire a brightness and size that will not be repeated for another seven years.
Next Tuesday, February 19, you can see a 'supermoon of snow', the largest and brightest full moon of this year, with features that can not be seen until 2026.
This is the second of the three 'superlunas' this year. The next one will take place on March 21. The spectacular lunar phenomenon is often known as the 'snow moon' because it often appears at the same time as heavy snow at this time of year in the northern hemisphere of the planet.
The supermoon is a phenomenon that occurs when a full moon is in its perigee (its closest point to Earth), which makes it appear brighter and larger than a normal full moon.
