This extra-supermoon is 14 percent brighter and 30 percent larger than an apogee full moon that the world can ever witness since 1948, and if you will miss this, your next privilege will be on November 2034.

You can view it on its peak full phase on the morning of Monday, Nov. 14, at 8:52 a.m. EST (1352 GMT), but it will appear full to the casual observer in the day before and after the main event, according to Space.com
Just get out from under your roof and look up to the sky and do the stargazer act and be amaze with the fantastic lunar view.
But if you experience cloudiness in your area, no need to worry for you can still watch this exta-supermoon online in several live webcasts, starting Nov. 13.
The Slooh Community Observatory offers a live broadcast for this extra-supermoon on Nov. 13 at 8 p.m. EST (0100 GMT on Nov. 14). You can also watch the supermoon live on Space.com, courtesy of Slooh.
Three Supermoon Phenomenon
Three supermoon phenomenon will occur in three consecutive months this last quarter of 2016 specifically on Oct. 16, Nov. 14, and Dec. 14.
So if you will really miss tonight's extra-supermoon chance, this coming December's supermoon is still remarkable, although it is not the largest and it is going to wipe out the view of the Geminid meteor shower.
A supermoon is super beautiful so don't miss it! Mark your calendar and be part of the sky history!
