NASA announces that the full moon will rise on September 17, 2023, at 10:35pm EDT, coinciding with a harvest moon, supermoon, and partial lunar eclipse.
The full moon occurs when the moon is 180 degrees opposite the sun, allowing for the sun to almost completely illuminate the moon, marking a cyclical phase.
During the celestial events, the moon will begin moving into Earth's partial shadow at 8:41pm EDT, leading to a peak eclipse at 10:44pm.
A supermoon occurs when the full moon appears larger and brighter, aligning with other phenomena like the harvest moon, offering a stunning view this month.
