Watch: Biggest Moon of the Year Tonight
NASA calls it a 'Super Moon' or 'Perigee Moon,' which will appear tonight.
NASA says it will be the brightest moon of the year, and visible on the West Coast at about 8:30 p.m. tonight. NASA explains on its website with this intro:
"The full Moon has a reputation for trouble. It raises high tides, it makes dogs howl, it wakes you up in the middle of the night with beams of moonlight stealing through drapes. If a moonbeam wakes you up on the night of May 5th, 2012, you might want to get out of bed and take a look. This May’s full Moon is a 'super Moon,' as much as 14% bigger and 30% brighter than other full Moons of 2012."
The Los Angeles Times offered some primo viewing locations, but where will you watch for the super moon?
