The next supermoon will be November’s full Beaver Moon, which is expected to reach the peak of its full phase on the morning of Monday, Nov. 14, at 8:52 a.m. EST (1352 GMT), but it will appear full to the casual observer in the day before and after the main event. It is the second of three consecutive supermoon full moons for 2016. Live webcasts of this supermoon begin Sunday night (Nov. 13) and run through Monday. Read our Supermoon Webcast Guide for details.

This full moon will be not only the closest and brightest supermoon of 2016 but also the largest since 1948. What’s more, the full moon won’t come this close to Earth again until Nov. 25, 2034, according to a statement from NASA.
