It's a Hunter's Moon. 🌕
Skywatchers around the world have been treated to a supermoon this week.
A supermoon occurs when the Moon reaches its closest point to the Earth, and the first full Moon in October is known as a Hunter's Moon.
This year's Moon can also be known as a Harvest Moon, being the closest full Moon to the autumn equinox on 22 September.
