The Earth's lunar sidekick will appear extra big and bright as it reaches its fullest stage on Wednesday. It's not just the biggest supermoon this year, it's also a rare blue supermoon.
June's full moon gets its nickname from the strawberry harvesting season in the Northeastern U.S. It also happens to be at its closest distance to Earth in its orbit, which makes it a supermoon.
Its name has ties to strawberry picking season, and when the strawberry moon appears above the horizon, the marginal supermoon will look large and gold.
