Due to Coronavirus, there is lockdown across the country, and with each passing day, we are all hoping that these things should end soon and that we can live our life back as before. But there is also good news in the meantime. Today, the Earth will look like a supermoon. Tonight will see the biggest moon of the year. The special thing is that for this Pink Moon, you need to go somewhere. You will be able to see it from your home.
What is a supermoon?
When the distance between the moon and the Earth decreases and the brightness of the moon increases, in that case the moon is called a supermoon. This moon appears 14 percent larger and 30 percent brighter than everyday.
What is Pink Supermoon?
Pink Supermoon is just a name, behind which there is no scientific reason. Actually, it is called Pink Supermoon because of a flower that grows in this season in the US and Canada. The name of this flower is Phlox Subulata. It is also called moss pink. The supermoon appearing in its name in this season has been called Pink Supermoon. This does not mean that the moon will look pink.
When will this supermoon appear in India?
As soon as the sun sets, we will be able to see this supermoon. This supermoon will start showing from 8 pm to 5 pm Indian time on 7 April. It is expected that this supermoon will also be seen on 8 April. But since it will be sunrise by then, we have only tonight to see it.
How to see Super Moon?
Except the eclipse, the super moon is just like a normal moon seen on the full moon day. The only difference is that when the moon gets closer to the earth, it appears bigger and brighter. In such a situation, for this supermoon, you need some kind of lens or other equipment. You can easily see this moon from the balcony or terrace of your house. But due to Kovid-19, the situation is not the same as before. In such a situation, do not leave the house and see this moon from the balcony.
