Scientists are planning to use NASA's Hubble Space Telescope to observe next month's historic transit of Venus across the sun's face -- but there's a twist: Researchers can't point Hubble anywhere near the sun, because our star's bright light could damage the telescope's super-sensitive instruments. So Hubble will watch the June 5-6 Venus transit by using the moon as a mirror. The goal is to see if Hubble can determine ...
Because of slight variability in its orbit, this perigee is the closest of all the perigees this year for the Earth's satellite. That means a "super moon" that will appear ~14% larger and ~30% brighter (because it's ~47,000km closer than its apogee, or furthest point away from Earth). The result is a grand, golden orb. Make sure you go outside tomorrow night for a bit and enjoy it, it will be the brightest of 2012! The Moon will reach perigee at 11:34 p.m. EDT (0334 GMT on Sunday). One minute later, it will line up with the Earth and the Sun to become full.
