'Supermoon' May Outshine Meteor Shower This Weekend

[align=center][img]http://l3.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/W8Jaz.RuLtGeinEB7sqKcw--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7Y2g9NDEyO2NyPTE7Y3c9NTUwO2R4PTA7ZHk9MDtmaT11bGNyb3A7aD00NzI7cT04NTt3PTYzMA--/http://l.yimg.com/os/152/2012/05/03/super-moon-2011-tim-mccord-entiat-wash-jpg_152112.jpg[/img][/align] The biggest full moon of the year, a so-called "supermoon," will take center stage when it rises this weekend, and may interfere with the peak of an annual meteor shower created by the leftovers from Halley's comet. The supermoon of 2012 is the biggest full moon of the yearand will occur on Saturday (May 5) at 11:35 p.m. EDT (0335 May 6), though the moon may still appear full to skywatchers on the day before and after the actual event. At the same time, the annual Eta Aquarid meteor shower will be hitting its peak, NASA scientists say.

Re: 'Supermoon' May Outshine Meteor Shower This Weekend

Because it is the time of the year, perigee (the distance where the moon is closest to the earth). This is the why it is called for "supermoon"
