You can share your Supermoon pics with CRHoy!

Last night you were able to see the Supermoon and now you can share your photos on CRHoy.com.

You can send your pictures through redaccion@crhoy.com and the newspaper will post them at night.

A supermoon is the coincidence of a Full moon or a New moon with the closest approach the Moon makes to the Earth on its elliptical orbit.

The reason for this is that the lunar orbit is elliptical and its center does not correspond with the center of the Earth and during these cases, a little bigger and brighter moon can be seen.
