Strawberry Supermoon Seen Illuminating Sky Over Wiltshire

A ‘strawberry moon’ was seen over Wiltshire, England, according to striking footage posted on June 24,

It was “the last supermoon of the year”, according to NASA.

“Towards the end of June, the moon usually sits in a lower position in the sky and shines through more of our atmosphere. Because of this, our moon can sometimes give off a pinkish hue”, they said.

The name is derived from the Native American Algonquin tribes, who believed it signalled the time for harvesting ripening strawberries and other fruits. Credit: @xRMMike via Storyful
