Description
Special effects, Super Moon. The biggest and brightest full moon in nearly 70 years! Taken in Northeast TN on 11/14/16.The moon's orbit around Earth is slightly elliptical so sometimes it is closer and sometimes it's farther away. When the moon is full as it makes its closest pass to Earth it is known as a supermoon. At perigee the point at which the moon is closest to Earth the moon can be as much as 14 percent closer to Earth than at apogee, when the moon is farthest from our planet. The full moon appears that much larger in diameter and because it is larger shines 30 percent more moonlight onto the Earth.
