A micro moon occurs when the full moon aligns with the point in its orbit farthest from Earth. Celebrate the night by marveling at the moon, pondering distant planets, and exploring the mysteries of the creatures and features beneath our feet. Spring nights offer a rich tapestry of sounds and movements, as both large and small creatures stir under the night sky.
