Here is what you need to know.

What is a supermoon?

A full moon can be called a supermoon when it looks bigger than normal.

This happens when the moon is positioned closer to the Earth.

The moon’s distance from the Earth varies because it does not orbit in a perfect circle – it travels in more of an oval shape.

Why is November’s supermoon special?

The first full moon of November is called a Beaver Moon.

This year’s Beaver Moon will be the second of three consecutive supermoons, after October’s Harvest Moon and before December’s Cold Moon.

The Beaver Moon will be closer to the Earth than the supermoons in October and December, making it the biggest and brightest of them all.

How do I see the supermoon?

It will also be visible for a couple of days either side of November 5.

For the best views, head outside shortly after nightfall and look east.
