"Super Moon" on June 14, many people still remember it. One month later, the "Super Moon" on July 14 (June 16th of the Lunar Calendar) is coming again. This round of "Super Moon" "Super Moon" It is the "maximum full moon" of the year.

Every day on the first day of the lunar calendar, people do not see the moon, called "Shuo"; around the fifteenth lunar calendar, people can see the round moon, called "full moon", also called "Wang".

Yang Jing, a member of the Chinese Astronomical Society and director of the Tianjin Astronomical Society, said that in the Gregorian calendar, there are usually 12 or 13 full moon. We know that the moon's orbit around the earth is not a circular shape, but an oval shape. Therefore, the moon will sometimes be close to the earth, sometimes far from the earth, and the closest place to the earth is called near the place. When the full moon occurs, if the moon just runs near the nearby place, the moon at this time looks big and round, known as "Super Moon" or "Super Full Moon"; There will be the "maximum full moon" of the year, otherwise, the "smallest full moon" of the year will appear. The visual diameter of "maximum full moon" and "minimum full moon" is about 14%.

"Super Moon" is not uncommon, once or twice a year, as many as three or four times. This year's "Super Moon" is twice. The first time is the full moon on June 14th. The diameter is 33′24 ″. At 7:23, the difference between the two is less than 12 hours; the second time is the full moon on July 14th, with a diameter of 33′35 ″, and the time of hopes appears at 2:38 on the 14th. The moment is 17:06 on July 13th, and the difference between the two is less than 10 hours, so this full moon has become the "largest full moon" throughout the year.

"Although the diameter of the" Super Moon "this year is 11 ″, for the public, the naked eye cannot be distinguished from the naked eye. If you want to separate the size, you need to use the same device and the same focal length parameter to take a closer look at the moon at the same horizon coordinate position. "Yang Jing said.

How to appreciate the biggest "Super Moon" of the year? "Because the moment of hope appears in the early morning, for most of the public, watching and shooting on the evening of the 13th is more suitable, especially when the monthly rising time, the magnificent is also suitable for the exquisite photos of the landscape." Yang Jing said.
