from Eagle
Rock
Reservation
in West
Orange,
N.J., on
April 6. The
biggest and

full moon of
the year
arrives
Saturday
night as our
celestial
neighbor
passes
closer to
Earth than
usual.
Saturday's
event is a
"supermoon,"
the closest
and
therefore
the biggest
and
brightest
full moon of
the year. At
11:34 p.m.,
the moon
will be
about
221,802
miles from
Earth.
That's about
15,300 miles
closer than
average.
