CNN News:罕见的满月于13号星期五出现
It's a full moon and a harvest moon and a micromoon and a Friday the 13th moon. If you see the moon tonight, you're seeing an example of how Friday's are awesome. Here's what's happening. The entire circular disk of the moon will be lit up tonight, making it a full moon. And because it's the full moon that occurs closest to the autumnal equinox — the first day of fall — that makes it a harvest moon. But here's where things get a-moon-sing.
The moon is also in apogee, it's farthest point away from earth. So scientists say it'll appear smaller than a full moon normally does.
That makes it what they call a micro moon. And this is all happening on Friday the 13th, so the date makes this a super-rare full harvest micromoon. How rare? Affiliate KNWA says the last time a full moon was in apogee on this date was in 1832, and the next time all this will happen is in the year 2524. So you moon-eyed moon gazers should try to get a glimpse of our nearest natural satellite tonight because you're going to have a wait a long time to see it again.
