  • The internet figured out a genius way to make sure you see the supermoon tonight

    Tonight’s supermoon will be the largest in decades, appearing 7% larger than your typical full moon. While photographers around the world are making a game plan to capture the drama, Twitter user Alex Duggan has found another, simpler solution. Step one: secure a tortilla. Step two: apply it to the nearest window for instant supermoon.

    Since we’re guessing that a tortilla won’t do the trick for you, here are a few actual supermoon photos to help you get inspired.

    This Sunday, June 23rd, the moon will be closer to earth than at any point during the year. It just so happens that on Sunday the moon will be full, too, creating what is commonly known as a ‘Supermoon’ which if there are no clouds in the way, will appear larger and brighter than normal. A great opportunity for some backyward astrophotography, in other words. Wired.com’s Raw File blog has published a short article containing tips for capturing this Sunday’s Supermoon in all its glory. Click through for extracts and a link to the full article.
