Super Moon – Frost Moon – Look Up Z-Rockers!
A supermoon happens when the full moon coincides with the moon's closest approach to Earth in its orbit. Supermoons make the moon appear a little brighter and closer than normal, although the difference is
hard to spot with the naked eye.
The term 'supermoon' has only been used in the past 40 years, but it received much attention in late 2016 when three supermoons occurred in a row. The supermoon of November 2016 was also the closest supermoon in 69 years, although a closer supermoon will rise in the 2030s.

Also, because it's the last full moon of the year, it's called a 'Frost' moon, or 'Cold' moon. That means that this will be a Super Frost Moon!
