Description

The Harvest Full Moon lit up the sky over Moscow on Tuesday night, offering a stunning view of the illuminated Kremlin and surrounding residential buildings.

This September's Harvest Moon coincided with a supermoon and a partial lunar eclipse, making it appear larger and brighter than a typical full moon. The supermoon occurs when the moon is at its closest point to Earth in its orbit.

The term 'Harvest Moon' was originally used by North American Indigenous people, referring to its proximity to the autumnal equinox, which this year falls on September 22.
