A Celestial Event You Won't Want to Miss!

Mark your calendars for April 13, 2025, because the night sky is about to unveil a rare spectacle! This is the date when the Pink Moon, the farthest, smallest, and faintest full Moon of the year, will take its place in the heavens.

The Details of the Micromoon Phenomenon

Hitting its full phase at precisely 00:24 UTC, this Moon will occur just 22 hours before reaching apogee—its maximum distance from Earth at a staggering 406,000 kilometers. As a result, expect a Moon that appears approximately 6% smaller than one you'd see on a typical night.

Why the Micromoon is Unique!

While this full Moon isn't going to outshine all the others in brightness due to atmospheric factors, it will be the faintest full Moon of the year when considering its distance from Earth. So, prepare for a special view!
