On Saturday night, June 30th, step outside and look around. You'll see a giant moon rising in the east. It looks like Earth's moon with the usual craters and seas, but something's wrong. This full moon is strangely inflated. It's huge!

I'm going to attempt to get some shots with a few folks from the camera club:lol:

Didn't see it posted already so thought I'd share.
