Don't Miss the Bright and Unique Strawberry Moon This Weekend
TL;DR Summary
The Strawberry Moon, the last full moon of Spring and the first of Summer, will be visible early on Sunday morning. The name comes from its coinciding with the ripening of strawberries in North America, and is one of the nicknames the Native American Algonquin tribes used for this full Moon. The Moon will appear reddish due to how light shines through the atmosphere, and will be at its fullest on June 4 at 6:41 a.m. Tel Aviv time. Other astronomical sights will also be visible including both Venus and Mars earlier in the night and Jupiter later in the night closer to sunrise.
