This past weekend the night sky could be seen Superksiężyc. Despite the fact that the moon actually has not changed its size, for the people watching him from the Earth was about 14 percent. larger and about 30 per cent. brighter.
This beautiful views we owe the fact that the moon was in perigee, ie. was closer to us than usual. As it passes through apogee, or farthest point of its flattened elliptical orbit, after which moves around the Earth, the shield is less. Until now, you could see three fully in the perigee. The third and last will be observed on September 9.
Another attraction is the Perseid swarm, which light up the sky during the next night.
lovers of such phenomena do not need special equipment to observe the sky. Summer walks with his eyes fixed on the stars they may only cross the weather.
