The last supermoon of 2025 to light up the sky tonight

Skywatchers have one last lunar spectacle to enjoy in 2025. Tonight, the final supermoon of the year will illuminate the night, offering a rare and stunning celestial display.

A supermoon occurs when a full moon coincides with the moon’s closest approach to Earth, known as perigee. This makes the moon appear up to 14 per cent larger and 30 per cent brighter than a typical full moon, casting an unusually vivid glow across the night sky.
