The Amazing Pink Moon 2020 (captured pictures)

Pink moon is the super moon of the year. This can be seen in the month of April every year.  A full moon becomes a  supermoon when the moon is at the perigee of its orbit (nearest position) around the Earth. It is about 14% larger and 30% brighter than the normal full moon which occurs after every 28 days revolution around the Earth. Some of the captured pictures: It was an amazing experience as a skywatcher! "Do not look at stars as bright spots only. Try to take in the vastness of the universe."                                           — Maria Mitchell, Astronomer
