A supermoon is a full moon (or a new moon) that nearly coincides with perigee—the closest that the Moon comes to the Earth in its elliptic orbit—resulting in a slightly larger-than-usual apparent size of the lunar disk as viewed from Earth. The technical name is a perigee syzygy or a full Moon around perigee.

∙ 7y agoA supermoon is the coincidence of a full moon or a new moon with the closest approach the Moon makes to the Earth on its elliptical orbit, resulting in the largest apparent size of the lunar disk as seen from Earth. The technical name is the perigee-syzygy of the Earth-Moon-Sun system.

A supermoon is a new or full moon closely coinciding with perigee, the moon’s closest point to Earth in its monthly orbit. According to the original definition of supermoon, a full moon or new moon has to come within 90% of its closest approach to Earth to be a supermoon. In other words, any full moon or new moon that comes to within 224,791 miles or 361,766 km of our planet, as measured from the centers of the moon and Earth, can be called a supermoon
