Explanation: On July 4, an almost Full Moon rose in planet Earth’s evening skies. Also known as a Buck Moon, the full lunar phase (full on July 3 at 11:39 UTC) was near perigee, the closest point in the Moon’s almost monthly orbit around planet Earth. That qualified this July’s Full Moon as a supermoon, the first of four supermoons in 2023. Seen from Cocoa Beach along Florida’s Space Coast on July 4, any big, bright, beautiful Full Moon would still have to compete for attention though. July’s super-moonrise was captured here against a super-colorful fireworks display.

说明: 在7月4日，一轮几乎满相的月亮在地球的夜空中升起。亦名为雄鹿月的这轮明月，满相点（7月3日11:39 UTC）在近地点附近，也就是说，在为期将近一个月的绕地轨道上，月亮来到了最接近地球的位置。所以今年7月的满月是超级月亮，这也是2023年4个超级月亮中的第一个。于7月4日，从佛罗里达州太空海岸的可可亚海滩看出去，这轮美丽的满月尽管大又亮，却无法占尽风采。因为在拍摄这轮超级月亮东升之时，前景有无比缤纷的烟花表演。 （Buck Moon 雄鹿月）
