19 March 2011: Hmmm, it looked like any other full moon to me, just especially brighter. But according to sources, we have 4 supermoons in one year and on 19 March it was supposedly the closest. According to other sources, this is the first supermoon in 18 years... I do recall one when I was a young girl - I remember it being really huge! But somehow this one didn't do any justice to my memory. Possibly that it may have been distorted? Distorted reality?
A supermoon is where the moon is within 90% of its closest approach to Earth in a given orbit. On 19 March 2011 there will be a full moon and in this period the Earth, Moon and Sun are all in a line, with the Earth is in the middle.
