Super Moon!! - July 12, 2014

Did you see the super moon this weekend (July 12)? Looks like European Space Agency astronaut Alexander Gerst, got some great shots from the International Space Station.

When the spectacular "supermoon" emerged on Saturday (July 12), so did shutterbugs around the world.  Supermoon Photos: Amazing Full Moon Views for July 2014

July's full moon peaked just after the "perigee," or the point when the moon is closest to Earth in its elliptical orbit. To the delight of night sky photographers, the result was an amazing "supermoon" that appeared much brighter and closer than a typical full moon.

If you did miss the super moon this weekend, don't worry you still have a few more chances to see it this year. Check out this video for more details:

It's my pleasure to introduce my self..well, I'm The Geekiest. I tie my own shoes, brush my own hair, and make my own bed... (well, only if my mom isn't at home.) During the day, I can be found sitting in an office cubicle, feverishly tapping my phone with hopes of getting a new high score on Tetris. I like to spend my evenings watching re-runs of Firefly while sipping on a glass of Chardonnay. I play a mean game of rock-paper-scissors (was the national champion for 2 years straight), and love the smell of pop tarts in the morning (part of a complete breakfast!)
