"Captivating Photos of the Illuminating Beaver Moon"
TL;DR
The "Beaver Moon," November's full moon, illuminated the night sky with its colorful display. While the moon always appears 50% lit by the sun, we can only see one face due to its tidal lock with Earth. Despite this, the moon wobbles throughout its orbit, revealing 59% of its surface. A full moon night is not ideal for stargazing as its brightness makes it difficult to see stars, galaxies, and nebulae, although planets remain unaffected. The next full moon will be the "Cold Moon" on December 26, 2023.
