Super "Perigee Full Moon" - the biggest in almost 20 years!

Tomorrow evening (3/19) you will be able to observe a natural spectacular: A full moon of rare size and beauty which will rise in the East at Sunset (around 7PM). The last time that the moon appeared so big and close to earth was almost 20 years ago.

What a great coincidence that we will get to observe this during the last 2 hours of our Run 4 Kids 24-Hours Ultra-Marathon.

Whatch the YouTube video by Science @ Nasa for more information:
