The final supermoon of 2024 rises Nov. 15 as November's Full Beaver Moon

Space.com
By Brett Tingley
13 November 2024

The last of four consecutive supermoons in 2024 rises this week.

November's Full Beaver Moon will rise on Friday (Nov. 15), just in time for those willing to stay up late for some weekend skywatching. The moment of full moon occurs at 4:28 p.m. EST (2128 GMT) on Friday, but the moon will appear full for most observers for a day or two prior to the moment of exact fullness.

November's full moon joins another celestrial treat: the lovely Pleiades star cluster, located just beside the moon in the Taurus constellation. This dense cluster of stars, also known as the "Seven Sisters," is one of the most popular sights of the night sky. Just note that the brightness of the full moon will make viewing most of the stars of this cluster difficult.

The full moon will be in the Taurus constellation, shining just beneath the curved horns of Aries, the Ram. Some four hours after sunset, the Hunter of the Orion constellation will follow the moon up the eastern sky.

SUPERMOON IS TONIGHT! It's worth a look - depending on the clouds.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

You will still be able to see it tonight. It will be only slightly diminished. You still get the effect.
As far as the gigantic moon you seen in movies and pictures, that only happens at moonrise close to the horizon.
The atmosphere of the Earth has a magnifying effect, which makes it HUGE.
