The Biggest Supermoon Of The Year Will Happen This July 13!

After a series of public holidays and festive seasons that are filled with fireworks, we’ve just found another reason for you to look up at the sky!

On July 13, a supermoon will be upon us and it will be the BIGGEST full moon of the year.

If you’re wondering what’s so special about this supermoon, here’s why:

• This supermoon is called buck moon and it got its name from the Native Americans back in the 1930s
• It will orbit closest to Earth as compared to other full moons this year
• The ‘viewing size’ is 14% larger than the previous supermoon
• You DON’T NEED binoculars or a telescope to be able to view this beautiful phenomenon
• This next supermoon will appear on August 11!
