The year’s biggest and brightest supermoon will light up the sky tonight

Summer is here and with it? Sunshine – and some serious moonshine (of the visible variety, of course). Tonight, look up in anticipation of the biggest and brightest event of the year – the July Buck supermoon.

Appearing 7% larger and lower in the sky, this particular event will be one well worth keeping an eye on when it rises above the horizon.

This will be the closest we’ll get to our celestial neighbour in 2022 (357,418 km) and while North America won’t get to see it when it reaches peak illumination at 2:38 pm ETC., it’ll still look pretty dang impressive after the sunsets.
