The last "supermoon" of 2020


Finally got around to downloading this image of the Moon, taken by me on 6th May 2020. It was a so-called a "supermoon", the third and final one of 2020. The term supermoon is used to refer to a full Moon on its closest passage to the Earth, or at lest within 90% of its closest passage.

What this means is that this passage was within 224,429 miles (361,184 km)
