The fourth full moon of the year, called the Pink Moon, will be visible in the sky above the UK tonight (Wednesday April 5).
It will reach its peak brightness at about 5.34am on Thursday morning, according to the Royal Observatory Greenwich. However it will appear full for the next few days, until Friday morning (April 7), according to NASA.
Full moons occur every 29.5 days, which is the time it takes for the moon to orbit the Earth and complete one lunar phase cycle. There will be 13 full moons this year, with two falling in August.
