On November 13 and 14, we, the inhabitants of the Earth, will be able to observe an amazing phenomenon — after sunset, for the first time in the last 70 years, we will see a record-breaking large Moon. Last Sunday, the moon was already shining in the night sky and will continue to amaze earthlings today, November 14.

These days, the Moon will be as close to the Earth as possible at the time of the full moon and will look 12.5% larger than usual. If you haven't seen this beauty on Sunday, then look at how the supermoon looked in other countries. And the next similar phenomenon can be observed only in 2034.

The moon orbits the Earth in an elliptical orbit, so at times it comes closer to our planet than usual. According to NASA, that's when the Moon appears 14-30% larger than usual.
