The next one will happen on April 8.A supermoon is the result of a full moon that occurs when the moon’s orbit has brought it to perigee, the closest distance from the Earth, so that it appears larger and brighter than usual.Every year, the March full moon is commonly called the “worm moon” — a reference to the earthworms that start appearing in early spring.
