I love it when the earth surprises us with something wonderful. Often these things are free to experience, or just cost a little time. The moon is putting on a show this month. It will appear the largest it has ever appeared since 1948. Mark your calendars. I found the best times to watch while reading an article from CNN.
I wanted to share them with you, so you won’t miss it. For most of you, it will appear while you are awake. Where I am, I’ll have to set my alarm, but I will. Here they are:
November 14
5:52 a.m. PST Los Angeles, CA
1:52 p.m. UTC London, UK
7:22 p.m. IST New Delhi, India
9:52 p.m. HKT Hong Kong
Take a picture, and let’s share them online that day or the next. I’d love to see how it looks from your part of the world.
Will you participate?

In the Philippines it would be November 14 at 21:52. The next super full moon would be on November 25, 2034 ( it would be much closer to Earth) so better not miss it folks

The moon will be huge where you are too. Just up the best time in your area. These are just examples.

Sure. It happens because of the closeness to the earth.Should work for the south as well.

I will hope for a cloudless sky on the 14th, but we are getting rain every few days it seems. If it is clear, I will be looking.

I'm usually up at 6:00 in the morning. However, since it will be light out at that time, I'm afraid it won't be as dramatic here. That's a shame. It should still be impressive the night before!

You're welcome. I used to wake my daughter to show her eclipses when she was small. She still remembers them.
