Supermoon & Leonid Meteor Shower

CNN: November’s full moon, otherwise known as the beaver moon, will shine bright in the sky on Friday as the last supermoon of the year.

For sky-gazers observing the golden orb this weekend, the Leonid meteor shower could make for a dazzling bonus feature as it reaches its peak on Saturday night into early Sunday, according to the American Meteor Society.

The beaver moon — named as a nod to that animal’s hibernation and thicker coats this time of year — will reach the crest of its full phase at 4:29 p.m. ET Friday, according to The Old Farmer’s Almanac. But the moon will appear full to the naked eye about a day before and after its peak, said Noah Petro, chief of NASA’s Planetary Geology, Geophysics and Geochemistry Laboratory.
