Super Full Moon
The term "Super Full Moon" refers to full moon that has closest approach to the earth. The Super Full Moon occurs at perigee (The point nearest the earth's center in the orbit of the moon) and that's why it is know as "Super Perigee Moon".
On Saturday, March 19, 2011, the moon was at its closest to Earth since March 1993 (about 221,565 miles away). According to the scientists estimate, it was about 14 percent bigger and 30 percent brighter than lesser moons that occur on the apogee side of the Moon's orbit.
