Last night, on October 17, people around the world watched a real giant - the largest and brightest full moon of 2024 - brighting up the sky. The October full moon is called the Hunter's Supermoon.
According to scientists, it is the third supermoon of this year, and it is 30% brighter and 15% larger than a regular full moon. We offer you to enjoy the photos of this unique beauty from different parts of our planet.
Astronomers call the Hunter's Supermoon unique.
According to AstroPixels, it came within about 357,364 kilometers of Earth, the closest of any full moon this year.
This makes this year's Hunter's Supermoon more than just a supermoon. The October full moon is about 30% brighter and almost 15% larger than a normal full moon, scientists say.
Hunter's Supermoon is a centuries-old name that refers to the beginning of the hunting season.
There are other ancient names for this October beauty, such as the Blood Moon, the Travel Moon, or the Dying Grass Moon.
We will be able to enjoy the October beauty for several days.
According to NASA, the best time to observe the Hunter's Supermoon is when it appears on the eastern horizon just after the Sun has set in the west. To get the best visibility, astronomers recommend looking just above the horizon.
The next full moon will appear in the sky on November 15. Known as the Beaver Moon, Frost Moon, or Mourning Moon, it will be the last supermoon of 2024.
According to astrologers, the Full Moon symbolizes the transition from the active phase of the year to preparation for winter. That's why you need to complete all the most important things by October 17 and focus on what will bring stability and prosperity.
