Impressive pictures thanks to a clear view are not available in all of Germany. The super moon can be admired above all in the northeast – in Cologne, Munich and Stuttgart clouds obscure the view.

Darmstadt/Offenbach – Big and bright: In many parts of Germany, people marveled at the so-called super moon on Wednesday evening. The full moon, which is particularly close to the earth, appears larger than usual, especially after rising.

However, the imposing moon was not easy to see everywhere in Germany. According to the German Weather Service (DWD), there was a clear view, especially in north-eastern Germany – for example in Schwerin, Rostock, Warnemünde and Berlin. In contrast, clouds obscured the view in many places, especially in central and southern Germany, for example in Cologne, Munich and Stuttgart.

The supermoon can be seen when the earth companion comes particularly close to our planet in its elliptical orbit and at the same time there is a full moon. However, the spectacle can only be admired when there are no clouds obscuring the view. The last full moon in mid-June also seemed particularly large at a distance of 360,000 kilometers. dpa
