The moon will appear 14% larger than a normal full moon, and will be about 30% brighter. We have a clear night and a ring side seat for the moonshine
on the snow covered volcano. Cheers!woody with a view - 5-5-2012 at 09:01 PM

Really? I`d like to know when the next full moon will be 14% smaller and 30% dimmer than the full moon tonight. Trust me, next month, you won`t see a
