Super Worm Full Moon tonight.

Yes, really. It's an old Native American name for the full-moon in Mars, to oversimplify. (Not sure which tribe/s. My source doesn't say, sorry.) Here's a brief source if you wish to learn more. It's the same reason a Januri moon is called a Wolf moon.

Do think I prefer some of the alternative names the site lists, though that pic is pretty snazzy. (Although a 'Super Sap Moon' still sounds pretty darn goofy. 'Worm moon' at least have some creepy and mystic overtones, you know?)

Anyway, last super-moon of the year, and the first that's fallen on the spring equinox in 19 years, so be sure to give the sky a look tonight if you're able. :twilightsmile:
