Meanwhile, the residents in Europe and Asia find it difficult to see the full-flower moon as clouds obscure the view. The May’s full moon occurred at the peak of the Northern Hemisphere spring.
The supermoon usually occurs when the moon appears within 10 percent of its closest distance to the planet during a full moon. It appears larger than the usual full moon, which can be seen frequently.
