September’s Full Moon Will Feature a Partial Lunar Eclipse
This month’s full moon will be one of four successive “supermoons,” which occur when the moon is near its closest point to Earth in its elliptical orbit. Any time a full moon aligns with or approaches the perigee, it becomes a supermoon. To top it off, this September’s full moon will also include a partial lunar eclipse, making it an even more captivating sight in the night sky.
