Get your eyes on the sky for the next supermoon of 2020 that may certainly be the brightest full moon of the year. You won't want to miss this night sight. Taking a look at the celestial wonders above us reminds us of what is normal in the world. Scroll on for more information.
The next supermoon of the year will take place on May 7, 2020, and is projected to be the biggest and brightest full moon of the year.
It is the third and final supermoon to take place this year, and it will be visible from Indiana and many other places around the globe.
Known as the Flower Moon or Corn Planting Moon, this full moon generally signifies the beginning of spring and a good time for planting or starting new things.
Native Americans named the full moons of the year as a way to tell time before calendars. The moons were often named after what was to be planted or what otherwise correlated with the specific moon.
This supermoon, in particular, is expected to be the brightest as the moon will be closer to the Earth than any other time during its orbit this year.
A supermoon is already a full moon taking place while the moon is close to the earth during its orbit, but this time it is expected to be extra close.
Previous to this 2020 supermoon, similar full moon situations took place this year in April and March. The next one will not occur until April 2021.
