According to connoisseurs, Tuesday September 8 satellite was observed 14 percent bigger and about 30 percent more effulgent. The same effect was observed on 12 July and 10 August previous.
The moon's orbit is elliptical, so that when it is farther from the Earth is 406,000 km and, on the contrary, finds its closest point to 356,000 km. It's a big difference than 50,000 km, highlights a note of ABC of Spain.
