www.eyesonthesky.com You've heard of the "Super Moon" but have you seen a "Mini Moon"? This week is the time to look; our nearest natural celestial neighbor reaches apogee mid-week. But before and after then, there's a lot of detail to see on the surface, despite "appearing" full for much of the next 7 days. Look for Pythagoras, Pascal and Brianchon along the edge, plus the hard-to-see Mares Humboltianum and Mare Smythi - both named after men, and the only mare on the Moon that are. All that and more about the Moon, plus where to see the naked eye planets. See what's up in the night sky every week with "Eyes on the Sky" videos, astronomy made easy.
