Supermoon July 3rd 2023 #shorts #astronomy #stargazing
The full moon on the 3rd July is a supermoon! That just means the moon is slightly closer to us on its oval shaped orbit than normal, making the moon slightly bigger and brighter on the sky. Sadly your eye won’t really be able to tell the difference to a normal full moon. So just be wary of that if you see any media articles about this. You might also hear people call this a Super Buck Moon; Buck is just the name given to the full moon that happens in July. It doesn’t have any astronomical significance.

👩🏽💻 I’m Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford (Christ Church). I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don’t know. If you’ve ever wondered about something in space and couldn’t find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
