Supermoon Tonight!


March 19, 2011!  The Biggest Full Moon in 18 Years!
A Supermoon is a new or full moon which occurs with the Moon at or near (within 90% of) its closest approach to Earth in a given orbit (perigee).  In short, Earth, Moon and Sun are all in a line, with Moon in its nearest approach to Earth.

It amazes me to be able to get just a glimpse of the handiwork of our Creator!
Here's just a sampling of what I was blessed to see in back of my apartment building – here in Flushing Queens tonight!
 The heavens declare the glory of God;
   the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

       – Psalm 19:1
