Stargazers across the UK will be able to catch a glimpse of the year’s biggest and brightest supermoon on Wednesday night as the moon arrives at its closest point to the Earth in 2022.
July’s full moon is known as the Buck Moon because male deer shed and regrow their antlers around this time of year. There is no particular location or time tonight when stargazers will be able to catch the best glimpse of the spectacle.
Anna Ross, a planetarium astronomer at London’s Royal Museums Greenwich said: “The best time to view this supermoon will be any time during the night of the 13th July, when the moon will rise in the east just after sunset, and set in the west a little before sunrise.
