Fireworks vs Supermoon

Explanation: On July 4, an almost Full Moon rose in planet Earth’s evening skies. Also known as a Buck Moon, the full lunar phase (full on July 3 at 11:39 UTC) was near perigee, the closest point in the Moon’s almost monthly orbit around planet Earth. That qualified this July’s Full Moon as a supermoon, the first of four supermoons in 2023. Seen from Cocoa Beach along Florida’s Space Coast on July 4, any big, bright, beautiful Full Moon would still have to compete for attention though. July’s super-moonrise was captured here against a super-colorful fireworks display.

說明: 在7月4日，一輪幾乎滿相的月亮在地球的夜空中升起。亦名為雄鹿月的這輪明月，滿相點(diǎn)（7月3日11:39 UTC）在近地點(diǎn)附近，也就是說，在為期將近一個(gè)月的繞地軌道上，月亮來到了最接近地球的位置。所以今年7月的滿月是超級(jí)月亮，這也是2023年4個(gè)超級(jí)月亮中的第一個(gè)。于7月4日，從佛羅里達(dá)州太空海岸的可可亞海灘看出去，這輪美麗的滿月盡管大又亮，卻無法占盡風(fēng)采。因?yàn)樵谂臄z這輪超級(jí)月亮東升之時(shí)，前景有無比繽紛的煙花表演。（Buck Moon 雄鹿月）
