A supermoon is a new or full moon that happens to coincide with a close approach of the moon to the earth. Saturday's full moon will be the closest it has been to Earth in 18 years, according to Spaceweather.com.

Cool. If the clouds stay away I'll be checking it out.

Sweet, I'll have to check it out with my telescope tonight if those b*tch clouds don't obscure it like they did to that awesome rare eclipse that happened not too long ago.

Isn't the lunar pull the reason for all the crazy weather and earthquakes?

Naw that is lazers man.

Damn b*tchclouds. Well maybe there will be a clear night over the next few days. It won't be a full moon, but it should still be close.

I saw it. Was definitely pretty cool.

Even cooler though, this morning while I was driving Coy to work the moon was still up (setting actually) just before sunrise. As it was on the horizon it was gigantic. I love Moon illusion stuff, and it's even better when the moon is at it's perigee like it was just recently.

Thankfully there wasn't a cloud in sight. It was super bright and very very nifty.

We checked it out, and it looked big, but I guess I don't look at the moon enough to know the difference. Pretty cloudy so we only saw a little bit of it.
