Supermoon over Majorca: On November 5 it's worth looking up
Why the Supermoon Looks So Large
A supermoon occurs when the Moon is closest to Earth, making it appear larger and brighter in Mallorca’s night sky.
Published: April 22, 2026
Answer
Why does the Moon look bigger during a supermoon?
A supermoon happens when the Moon reaches the nearest point in its orbit around Earth, known as perigee. Because it is closer than usual, it appears larger and brighter than an average full moon. In Mallorca, that stronger moonlight can make the sea, streets and hills look especially clear at night.
