Good to know
- A full Moon happens at one exact moment, when the Moon is opposite the Sun. It looks full for a night or so either side.
- The Moon鈥檚 path around Earth is slightly oval, so some full Moons are closer and look up to 8% bigger. People call the biggest ones supermoons.
- A full Moon rises around sunset and sets around sunrise, so it is up all night.
- Its bright light hides faint stars and most shooting stars. For a meteor shower, a night near new Moon is best.
