Three celestial events that will coincide on the same occasion: Supermoon, Blue Moon and Total Lunar Eclipse. According to the member and former president of the Association of Self-taught Astronomers of Colombia (Asasac), John Jairo Parra Pérez, the Supermoon"is the coincidence of the phase of full moon with the perigee: the maximum approach of our natural satellite to Earth" "It's called that, because the full moon looks a little bigger than when the same phase occurs in other months. This slight variation in size can only be seen by comparing images of the Supermoon with another full moon, "explained Parra. Noah Petro, a researcher at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, said that "the perigee-filled moons appear to be about 14% larger and 30% brighter than the full moons that are found at another time in the lunar orbit"
