Last night (Sunday, 3rd December) was sight to behold. Turns out, the final full moon of the year was a supermoon.
Local reports stated that 2017’s first, last, and only supermoon made its appearance yesterday at 11:57pm. It is said that supermoons can appear up to 14% larger and 30% brighter than a typical full moon.

3. Manchester, England
4. Netanya, Israel
5. Hong Kong
6. Singapore
Fret not if you missed last night’s supermoon; it was only the first of 3 consecutive supermoons. The next 2 supermoons are set to take place on 1st and 31st Janaury 2018. Experts are saying that the supermoon on 31st January would be an exceptional occasion as both the lunar eclipse and a blue moon (the second full moon in a month) are happening at the same time.
Remember to mark your calendar for that special date 😉
