Default Look out your windows tonight....

Tonight's full moon will be the biggest and brightest full moon of the year. It offers anyone with clear skies an opportunity to identify easy-to-see features on the moon.

This being the first full moon of 2010, it is also known as the wolf moon, a moniker dating back to Native American culture and the notion that hungry wolves howled at the full moon on cold winter nights. Each month brings another full moon name.

Thanks Alffe,
That was very cool info. I love anything to do with wolves. But I also would like to learn all the names of the full moons. Thanks.

It was a spectacular moon, Alffe.

For some reason called honey moon here, but then again, we're not in the Americas.
It actually was very gold and very large.

I wish I had a camera with a telescopic lens.

Yup, it's called either a honey moon or a strawberry moon.
