This Saturday, April 16, the Pink Full Moon can be witnessed in the sky, practically an Easter treat for stargazers, but it will not only be a moment or a night in which you can witness this astrological phenomenon, but a whole weekend.

Talking about full moons refers to a lunar phase that occurs approximately once a month, when the sun, the Earth and the moon align in an imaginary 180-degree line.

The moon's orbit is about 5 degrees different from Earth's, so it is usually a little higher or lower than Earth's shadow, which allows the sun's rays to illuminate its near side, or the side facing Earth, Andrea Jones, NASA science communicator, told WordsSideKick.com.

When will the Pink Full Moon be visible?

This Saturday, April 16, the moon is only full for a moment at 2:55 p. m. EDT (18:55 GMT), but in total it will appear full from the morning of Friday, April 15 through the early morning hours of Monday, April 18, according to NASA.

However, in North America, the moon will not be visible above the horizon until after sunset on April 16.

Why is it known as Pink Full Moon?

Although it is regularly thought to be named for the color shown by the earth's natural satellite, it is actually due to the bright pink flowers that bloom in early spring, creeping phlox or moss phlox (known by its scientific name Phlox subulata), a plant native to eastern North America.
