Supermoon

Can I geek out for a second? Take a stroll outside tonight, look up in the sky and you'll see the supermoon. The supermoon is a phenomenon where the moon will not only be full but will appear larger than it does any other time of the year due to its distance from the Earth. Look as it's coming over the horizon and then at 10:35pm central when the supermoon effect will be at it's greatest.

And for a total astronomical experience, download the SkyView app (they have a free version) and get a lesson on constellations while you're at it. Happy star gazing!
