Do you have a chance to witness the fourth and final super moon of 2022?
Final super moon of the year illuminated the sky Thursday night. The moon comes in a variety of colors and appears larger and brighter than when the moon is at its furthest point from Earth.
Called the Sturgeon Moon, the astronomical event is not visible until 9:36 p.m. EDT. NASA says the supermoon will remain in this phase until Saturday morning.
Here’s a glimpse of the supermoon from around the world in case you missed it.
