Overview
- The Royal Observatory Greenwich said the Wolf Moon reached full phase at about 10 a.m. on Saturday in the UK, where clear skies offered widespread views.
- Images captured the supermoon setting at Stonehenge and glowing over Glasgow and the Thames Estuary, with additional photos from Baltimore, Mexico near Popocatépetl, and Srinagar.
- A supermoon occurs when a full moon is near perigee, appearing larger and brighter, with UK coverage citing up to 14% larger and 30% brighter and Pakistan guidance noting about 6–7% larger versus a typical full moon.
- Pakistan’s space agency SUPARCO advised that moonrise would occur at 5:51 p.m. local time, with the most dramatic views at the horizon and no special equipment required.
- Astronomers noted this Wolf Moon as the final supermoon in a series that began in October 2025.
