Supermoon Eclypse

The moon turns new on March 8 or 9, 2016, depending on your time zone. The new moon in Pisces happens one day before the moon reaches lunar perigee – the moon’s closest point to Earth in its orbit. Thus this new moon counts as a supermoon. It won’t be visible in our sky, but it’ll line up with the sun to create a larger-than-average effect on Earth’s oceans.
