Skywatchers are in for a rare celestial treat as four consecutive supermoons are set to appear between late 2025 and early 2026. The phenomenon begins with the October full moon, also known as the Harvest Moon or Harvest Supermoon, on Monday, October 6, promising one of the largest and brightest lunar displays of the year.
The Harvest Supermoon will reach full illumination at 11:47 p.m. ET, marking the Moon’s closest approach to Earth. Observers across the globe will have a prime opportunity to enjoy the spectacle, whether as casual viewers or professional astronomers.
Experts recommend watching from a clear, open location away from city lights for the best experience. Using binoculars or a telescope can reveal surface details, while photographers may try long-exposure shots to capture the Moon’s full brilliance. This first supermoon kicks off a rare series of four consecutive supermoons, making it a must-see event for stargazers.
