October Harvest Moon: When is supermoon? How to watch the first one for 2025? NASA reveals date, time
Skywatchers across the northeast of Ohio and other regions can expect a bright, orange tinted face on Monday (October 6). This is the first supermone of the year to rise in the eastern air. Since this full moon coincides with the moon’s nearest point to the earth, it will look slightly larger and brighter than usual. That makes it a supermone. Harvest Moon, known as the ‘Harvest Moon’, is the full moon closest to the fall. According to Nasa, according to Nasa, it will reach at 23:48 hours on October 6. The term “harvest moon” comes from ancient farming traditions. Farmers used moonlight to arrive the collected crops until late the night before the winter. The name still lives on in folklore, even though modern agriculture is no longer on moonlight. The moon will appear about an hour after rising gold-orange, as the earth’s atmosphere spreads blue light. Viewers can see that the moon looks extremely large due to a natural visual effect called the “moon illusion”. It is caused by trees and buildings in the area. The moon will appear about 14% larger and 30% brighter than normal. However, the difference can be subtle for the naked eye. Those who miss it can still enjoy almost complete views on Tuesday and Wednesday nights. In Northeast -Ohio, the supermone will rise around 6:39 pm, just as the sun sets at 18:59 o’clock, according to Cleveland.com. It will create a beautiful twilight view. Skywatchers get a bonus view, as Saturn appears near the harvesting supermone on Monday night. The planet will shine about 15 degrees above and right of the moon. The square of Pegasus will also be visible under clear air. The clear asterism consists of stars Markab, Scheat, Algenib and Alpheratz. The best views are open areas with a clear view of the eastern horizon, away from the city lights. Photographers can capture beautiful shots on Moonrise using Groothoek Lenses that include landmarks in the frame. Last supermoon in the US The last supermone in the United States was called the Beaver Moon, which appeared on November 15, 2024. It was the fourth and final supermone of last year. The moon reaches its brightest point at 16:29 EST and looks slightly larger and brighter than a normal full moon because it was closer to the earth. The name “Beaver Moon” comes from old traditions that are the time when Beavers build and restore their dams before the winter. It symbolized preparation and endurance in nature.
