ROANOKE, Va. – The final supermoon of 2023 will shine in the night sky Friday and Saturday, and some of you have already gotten some great pictures of it.
A supermoon happens when the full moon is at perigee - its closest point to Earth in orbit.
As a result, it appears slightly bigger and brighter than your average full moon.
The next one happens August 19,2024. There will be three more after that on September 17, 2024, on October 17, 2024 and on November 15, 2024.
If you have any pictures of 2023′s final supermoon, send them to Pin It, and we’ll show them off!
