• Green Posts are for sightings that I think are special. These might include things like blood moons, satellite sightings and rare, once a year kind of space-related notes
• Pink Posts contain fun facts about galactic space and human discoveries, and usually are themed/posted after a green post, so you can understand exactly what I said and how that came to be in simple, easily understandable language, most likely to have a photo attached which is what the event looks like.

• No place on Earth is closer to the moon compared with others during a super moon due to the moon’s elliptical orbit of Earth
• In order for a full/new moon to be classified as a super moon, the moon has to be within 361,885 km of the Earth, measured from both centres of mass
• The closest the moon will get to Earth this year is 356,907km on the 8^th of April and the furthest away it will get is 406,692km on the 31^st of October, which will be 49,131km further away than tonight’s moon
• Some astronomers don’t like the name super moon. They like to call them Hype instead, but their special, not hype, so many people use the term super moon instead
• Before they were named super moon, they were know as Perigean Full Moons or Perigean New Moons. Perigee just means near Earth. Apogee is the opposite, and thus means The point of an orbit of a moon or satellite when it is furthest from Earth.
• Because the moon is the reason we have tides, the waves will be much bigger, and much smaller during the period before, during and after the moon passes your part of the Earth’s Equator 

• The Usuals or Casuals

• Minor Stars

• Clouds.
