层层堆叠的积木月亮

说明: 10月6日晚上，你看到那轮巨大、明亮、美丽的满月升起，就是丰收月。「丰收月」在节庆、故事和歌曲中广为人知，它只是北半球最接近秋分时满月的传统名称。根据传说，这个名字非常贴切。尽管白昼时间越来越短，但随着北方作物生长季节的结束，农民们仍然可以从黄昏到黎明在满月照耀下收割作物，这就是丰收月的光芒。在2025年，10月的丰收月比平常来得晚，这次的满月也被一些人称为超级月亮，这个词已经逐渐成为接近近地点时满月的传统名称。这张摄于10月5日的远摄照片，展示了（几乎）满月升起在纽约市一座显眼的摩天大楼上空，这又让人联想到另一个满月的名称。

英文原文:
Explanation: That big, bright, beautiful Full Moon you watched rise on the night of October 6 was the Harvest Moon . Famed in festival, story, and song, Harvest Moon is just the traditional name of the full moon nearest the time of the northern hemisphere’s autumnal equinox. According to lore the name is a fitting one. Despite the diminishing daylight hours, as the growing season drew to a close in the north, farmers could harvest crops by the light of a full moon shining on from dusk to dawn. Later this year than usual, in 2025 October’s Harvest Moon was also known to some as a supermoon, a term becoming a traditional name for a full moon near the time of lunar perigee. And this telephoto snapshot of the (almost) full moon rising above a conspicuous skyscraper in New York city, taken on October 5, is suggestive of yet another full moon moniker.
