The full moon of June, also called the Strawberry Moon, will occur on June 11. A day prior (June 10) Australians and New Zealanders will see the moon occult Antares, the brightest star in Scorpius, the Scorpion.
The exact moment of full moon occurs at 3:44 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time (0744 UTC), according to the U.S. Naval Observatory. The moon's occultation of Antares won't be visible from New York. North American sky watchers will see a very close pass of the moon just to the south of ("below") Antares.
