NEW YORK, (Pakistan Point News – 5th Nov, 2016) : A super-moon occurs when the moon becomes full on the same days as its perigee, which is the point in the moon's orbit when it is closest to Earth. They generally appear to be 14% bigger and 30% brighter than regular full moons. A supermoon is not all that uncommon, but on November 14, the moon is within approximately two hours of perigee, meaning that the supermoon is not just the biggest and brightest supermoon of the 21st century; it is going to be the biggest in almost seven decades. The last time the moon could be seen at this size was January of 1948. It won't come this close to the Earth again until Nov. 25, 2034, according to NASA.
