Tonight the moon will be full, but that's not what makes tonight's moon super. Tonight is also the closest the moon will pass to earth in 2012, meaning it will appear bigger than normal in the sky.
How much bigger? Space.com reports that it'll look about 14% bigger and 30% brighter than the average full moon. It will be at its fullest at 11:35 p.m. EDT.
For night sky watchers and photographers, this is an excellent opportunity, and we'd like to see what you're seeing. Send us your photos of tonight's full moon by dragging them to the photo widget at the bottom of this post. Or, you can tweet them to @mashableHQ using the hashtag #MashMoon.
Where will you be observing the moon from?
