Lovers astronomical phenomena They have an appointment this morning with the pink moon, the Super moon from April. This will be the occasion to see the biggest and brightest moon of the year. To do this, however, we will have to get up early or stay up late, because the best time to see it will be from 5:30 in the morning.
They are known as supermoons full moons that appear larger and brighter in the sky because they are closer to the Land. The phenomenon occurs between two and four times a year and provides spectacular images.
This is what will foreseeably happen from this morning, when the April moon may be at its peak. Specifically, it will max out on the 05:31 in the morning from this Monday to Mars 27, Spanish time.
The origin of the pink moon
Despite being called “pink moon”, We should not expect to see a large pink round in the sky, since the name is only metaphorical. The supermoon of April is called the pink moon because it coincides with the flowering of the phlox, a flower of this same color.
The April supermoon It is the second we see this year after the supermoon in March. And we will still be able to see two more in May and June.
The phenomenon will be visible to the naked eye, although looking for wide and elevated spaces can help to observe it better. Thus, for example, in Barcelona we could go to Collserola or Montjuïc, while from Madrid it can be seen from the Cerro del Tío Pío or the central Debod Park.
