A Strawberry Moon Is Coming. Why the Rare Astrological Event Is So Exciting ... A 2018 supermoon rises above the Acropolis in Athens, Greece. ... The man who ...

His Houston lawn was beneath his feet now, but seven days earlier it had been the soil of the moon under his boots, dirtying his uniform, and in the very air he breathed when he climbed back inside his spacecraft and shucked the bulky, dusty pressure suit. That’s why we gaze up at a full moon with such fascination—so close to us on a cosmic scale but so far away in all other respects. He recalls standing in his backyard with a beer, gazing up at the moon and thinking how surreal it seemed that just a week earlier he had been there. Irregular and egg-shaped, it can be as far as 406,000 km (252,000 mi) from Earth and as close as 357,000 km (222,000 mi). At its closest approach, or perigee, the moon appears 30% larger and 17% brighter than it usually does. The moon was born in violence 4.5 billion years ago, when a planetesimal the size of Mars collided with Earth, sending a vast belt of debris into space. Frank Borman, the commander of Apollo 8, which circled the moon 10 times on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 1968, was candid when we chatted one day back in 2015.

One clever example: the top of the bottle is a nod to the pastel parasols that line Strawberry Moon's pool. And according to Edwards, perfume's packaging is as design-conscious as the extravagant resort that inspired it. Strawberry Moon captures that distinct olfactory blend of sun, sand, and the luxurious beaches lining the Miami Beach coast.

Strawberry Moon Illuminates Night Sky (Greek Reporter)

The strawberry moon, which is also designated as a supermoon, is shining bright in the night sky this week.

It was under Greek skies that ancient astronomers began to develop theories about the planets overhead, theories that are now proven. In many ways, the galaxy is a stage on which the myths of the ancient Greeks are performed. This belief is perhaps most famously memorialized in Homer’s epic poems the Iliad and The Odyssey.

Why is the moon so big tonight? What causes the June 2022 ... (iNews)

A supermoon occurs due to the fact that the moon moves nearer and further away from the Earth.

June’s full moon has come to be known as the “strawberry moon” in some quarters, as per the American Farmer’s Almanac, which has apparently been designated the authority on such matters. It will still be visible after sunset this evening. The phenomenon is therefore relatively common.

While it doesn't look like a strawberry, the Supermoon will come into view over the skies across Ireland tonight.

'Strawberry Moon' In Photos: 2022's Biggest, Brightest And Best ... (Forbes)

Did you see the year's biggest full Moon rise this week? Looking to the east at dusk on Tuesday, June 14, 2022 was what you should have been doing to get ...

The next full Moon is the “Buck Moon,” which rises on Wednesday, July 13, 2022. The Moon always looks at its delicate best during moonrise and moonset close to the time of it being at its “full” phase. That’s because it rises about 50 minutes later each night so either rises during daylight or darkness either side of “full Moon night.” It’s an optical illusion that lasts for only a few minutes when the Moon is close to the horizon. Not that the full Moon looks much larger purely because it’s a supermoon. It will look about 6% bigger than the “average” full Moon, and up to 30% brighter.

It will appear around 30% brighter and 14% larger than an average full moon and marks the second supermoon of the year.

The stunning view will be enjoyed not just by Irish space lovers, but by people across the globe as David Moore, Chairman of Astronomy Ireland and Editor of Astronomy Ireland magazine, told the Irish Mirror: “The whole planet will be able to see it. “There is also an aurora, so the Northern Lights, forecast for tonight, June 15. So if you follow our social media, we publish estimates of when this is visible. So roughly between sunset and sunrise is when you’re going to see this full moon.” “That will be seen low on the Northern horizon, and if you’re out of the city you will have a better view, but we do have to have a clear sky I’m afraid. Everywhere in the world, as soon as it gets dark, the sun will go down and the moon will come up because the full moon is directly opposite the sun in the sky.
