You’re in luck—the Beaver Moon supermoon was at its peak in early November 2025, with its closest approach to Earth around the night of November 4–5. If you’re asking “tonight,” here’s how to attend to it:
- Tonight’s visibility: The beaver supermoon was most prominent around moonrise and continuing through the evening, weather permitting. In many time zones, it would have been visible shortly after sunset and remained bright into the early night. Peaks in brightness and size occur near perigee, but the moon remains noticeably larger and brighter for several hours around that time. If you’re asking specifically about “tonight” relative to November 6, 2025, the most dramatic display has passed, but the full moon will still be bright and visible depending on local conditions.
- How to maximize viewing:
- Find an unobstructed eastern or southern horizon view, away from bright lights.
- Check local sunset times for your location, then look for a large, luminous full moon rising.
- A clear sky and low light pollution will help you appreciate its size and brightness.
- Quick facts to help you identify it:
- Name: Beaver Moon (also simply the November full moon).
- Type: Supermoon (full moon near its perigee, appearing larger and brighter than usual).
- Peak illumination: Typically around the moment of perigee, but the moon remains exceptionally bright for a window spanning a few hours on either side.
- Common observation tips: It can cast noticeable shadows and looks especially striking near horizon due to the moon illusion.
