Daily Postcard: Super Flower Moon At 91 Percent Visible

Daily Postcard: A view of the Super Flower Moon 91 percent visible Tuesday evening from White Rock. There is one last chance this week to see one of 2020’s three stunning supermoons as the Super Flower Moon will loom large just after sunset Thursday. The combination of a full moon (when the moon appears fully illuminated from Earth) and a supermoon (when the moon is close to Earth and appears bigger than usual) promises to be an unforgettable sight in the latter part of the week. The astrological definition of a supermoon is a full moon that’s at 90 percent of its closest distance to the Earth in that given orbit. Photo by Nancy Ann Hibbs
