Overview
- In Mexico’s central time, the Moon reaches full phase at 13:19 on Nov. 5 with perigee that night near 22:00, and viewing is favored after sunset on Nov. 4–5.
- Published figures place the geocentric distance between about 356,800 and 356,980 kilometers, confirming the tightest full‑moon pass of 2025.
- Observers can expect a modest visual boost—about 8% larger and roughly 16% brighter by some guides, with other sources citing increases up to 14% and 30%.
- The event is easily seen without equipment from dark, unobstructed horizons, with the apparent size most striking near moonrise due to the lunar illusion.
- This is the second in a run of consecutive late‑2025 supermoons, with another on Dec. 4, and astronomers note any tidal rise should be slight.
