Information Madness

A full moon of enormous beauty and unique size will rise today in the east at sunset. It will be the biggest in the past 20 years.  The weather at most part of India isn't cloudy, so Saturday stargazers might be able to have the glimpse of "super-moon". For the first time in past 18 years, the moon's orbit will the nearest to the Earth. The average distance between the moon and Earth is about 383,000 kilometers. The full moon on Today, March 19 will be about 356,577 kilometers away.

And while it might pull hard on some tides, the super "perigee moon" won't trigger werewolf uprisings or natural calamity.
As it snugs into about 220,000 miles away the moon will appear 30% brighter and 14% larger than a most distant full moon.

Geoff Chester, US Naval Observatory, Washington DC said, "The last full Moon so big and close to Earth occurred in March of 1993," He also told "I'd say it's worth a look."

Because of Moon's orbit is in oval shape, the Full Moons vary in size. Its one side is in an elliptical shape about 50,000 km closer to the Earth than the other.

Nearby perigee moons are about 30% brighter and 14% bigger than lesser moons that occur on the apogee side of the Moon's orbit.
"The full Moon of March 19th occurs less than one hour away from perigee- a near perfect coincidence1 that happens only 18 years or so," added Geoff Chester.
The best or preferable time to see the super-moon is when it is near the horizon. That is when reality gets mixes with illusion to produce a truly marvelous view.
