INDIANA, Nov. — Mark your calendars, because November’s full moon promises to be a spectacular sight! Not only is it a supermoon—meaning the moon will appear brighter and larger than usual—but it’s also the last supermoon we’ll see for a long time. So, don’t miss it.
This Friday, November’s full moon, known as the Beaver Moon, will rise in Central Indiana around 5 p.m., casting its silver glow across the evening sky. It will set early Saturday morning, making it a perfect late-night spectacle. This moon marks the fourth and final supermoon of the year, following August’s Blue Moon, September’s Harvest Moon, and October’s Hunter’s Moon.
For skywatchers, this event offers a unique opportunity to see Earth’s lunar companion at its most dazzling, appearing slightly closer to the Earth than usual, making it appear larger and brighter.
What to Expect in November’s Sky
In addition to the Beaver Moon, November also brings a few other celestial events worth noting. From meteor showers to planetary alignments, there’s plenty to look up for this month. Here’s a glimpse at some of the key highlights:
