You may have heard the full moon gets called a supermoon. We'll explain how and why a full moon can become a supermoon.

The third and final supermoon of the year lit up the sky on Wednesday night.

People all around the world took to social media to share their pictures of the spectacle.

Stargazers won't be able to see a supermoon again until Feb. 9, 2020

Supermoons appear slightly bigger and brighter than normal full moons.

Other nicknames for March’s full moon include the Sap Moon, the Crow Moon and the Lenten Moon.
