How to Spot November's Supermoon, the Closest of the Year

The November 4 supermoon will appear about 7% larger and 16% brighter than a typical full moon, marking the second of three supermoons in 2025.

  • On November 4, 2025 the moon will host the year's largest and brightest full moon, creating the most spectacular full-moon display of 2025.
  • A supermoon occurs when the moon is full while near perigee, and this perigee full moon orbits about 17,000 miles nearer to Earth, increasing its size and brightness.
  • While officially full on Nov. 5, 2025 at 13:19 UTC, observers should note the moon’s added brilliance can wash out fainter stars and cast faint shadows on the ground.
  • The supermoon offers stargazing and photography opportunities connecting people to natural cycles as the `beaver moon`, second of three consecutive supermoons closing out 2025, honors Indigenous peoples of North America.
  • The moon won't appear this large again until November 24, 2026, as not all supermoons have ideal supermoon alignment versus full-phase timing, reducing size and brightness.
