Supermoons take place when a full moon is near its closest point to Earth, making it appear up to 14% bigger and 30% brighter compared to when it is furthest away.

Though rare, the phenomenon will happen again at the end of the month, when it will be even closer to the Earth than it was on Tuesday evening. During supermoons, the moon can appear bigger and brighter than usual.
