If you only see one astronomical event this year, make it the November supermoon, when the Moon will be the closest to Earth it's been since January 1948.

 

During the event, which will happen on the eve of November 14, the Moon will appear up to 14 percent bigger and 30 percent brighter than an average full moon. This is the closest the Moon will get to Earth until 25 November 2034, so you really don't want to miss this one.
