"Super Moon" on the night of November 14, which is talked about for the first time in 68 years since 1948.
A phenomenon in which the moon turning around the earth in an elliptical orbit overlaps with the day closest to the earth and the full moon, and the moon seen from the earth looks larger than usual.
According to the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, the average distance between the Earth and the Moon is about 384,400 km, but on the night of the 14th, it approached about 356,500 km, and the diameter is 1.14 times larger than the full moon on April 22, which was the smallest this year, and the area is 30% larger.
It is said that the distance at the time of approach changes every year due to the gravity of the sun, but the next opportunity to approach this far is 2034.
Although the weather was unfortunate on the day, a large moon that looked enough even before and after the 14th could be seen over the illuminated Toyomi Bridge.
November 15th tonight is 16 nights, not the full moon, but the difference is slight.
There were a lot of clouds and it was soon hazy, but occasionally I was able to enjoy the bright "Super 16 Nights".
