"And the 'Supermoon' - the nickname for a perigee full moon, closer to the Earth than usual - could cause tides to rise around the world as the moon's close 'fly past' exerts 42% more tidal force. The moon will appear bigger and brighter - sky-watchers promise this 'supermoon' will be 16% brighter than most when it begins on Saturday at 3.35pm GMT, 11.35am EDT. "

Apparently there was one last year, because I said this^ to a coworker just now and he was all "Nah-uhhhh there was one in March 2011" and I was like "No there wasn't because thewolfweb said so" and then he said NASA said there was....

5/6/2012 12:12:10 AM

I'm in Texas. It's bright as fuck outside. The moon does look big, but I don't really have any way to discern how much bigger it is than other times I've seen it. I guess they were right in the article.
