Stargazers are in for a delightful sight tonight, as a super moon is predicted to be rearing its head in the UK this evening.Assuming that the clouds disappear, July 3 is the date when the moon will be the biggest its been this year as seen from Earth, reports Wales Online.
Monday night's full Buck super moon will be visible in the UK and around the world - and will remain a full moon for several nights after.On July 3, the moon will rise late, at 10.14pm in the UK, and the Buck super moon will appear in the constellation of Sagittarius - meaning the southeast.
The Earth's moon orbits the globe on an elliptical shape - which means that it will be closer to the surface at some times than others.July 3 is an example of when it is closer than normal.
