Pink moon 2021: Where can super moon be seen on April 26?

The final week of April will kick off with a full moon, known this month as the pink moon. Plus it’s also a “supermoon.”

The moon will officially become full at 11:32 p.m. ET Monday, April 26, but will look plenty full when it rises above the eastern horizon Monday evening. 

However, before you get your hopes up, the moon won’t look pink, the Old Farmer’s Almanac cautioned.

“The moon will be its usual golden color near the horizon and fade to a bright white as it glides overhead,” the Almanac said.  

So why is it called the pink moon?
