The scientific term for the bright lunar phenomenon is “perigee moon”. It occurs when the moon is closest to the Earth on its orbit. At that moment the moon is 31,000 miles (50,000 kilometers) closer to the Earth than when it is furthest away from the planet. That happens quite often, on average supermoons occur every 13.5 months.

However, this summer skywatchers are treated to three supermoons in quick succession. The first one was visible on July 12, and the last one is expected to occur on September 9, according to NASA.
