Next Tuesday, September 9, we will have the opportunity to contemplate the last of this year's supermoons, and it is already the third we see this summer. The previous ones took place on July 12 and August 10; the latter coincided with the classic Perseid meteor shower.
An international team of researchers has discovered that in the subsoil of our satellite, in the deepest regions of the mantle, there is a soft and warm layer of materials.
Our natural satellite reached the point of its orbit closest to Earth on August 10, which was the largest and brightest Moon in all of 2014. Here are some of the best photos:
The Moon is not a perfect sphere but rather has a shape similar to a lemon, according to a new study by a team of researchers from the University of California in Santa Cruz (USA), who have discovered the reason why our natural satellite It has that little deformity around it.
The data obtained by the Cassini probe, which has been studying Saturn and some of its moons since 2004, has allowed a team of researchers to identify 101 active geysers in one of them, known as Enceladus.
If during the month of July we have been able to enjoy a beautiful supermoon and two fantastic meteor showers in the same night, the month of August holds similar astronomical fortune. However, on this occasion, the next supermoon, which will take place on August 10, will coincide with the classic Perseid meteor shower.
A team of international researchers from China, the US and Japan has created a computer model that shows that the moon is not totally solid, but shows a layer of liquid that surrounds its core.
Those who are passionate about astronomy are in luck. In a short space of time we will enjoy an extraordinarily large and bright Moon, like the one this past July 12. We still have two more opportunities to see another supermoon: next August 10 and September 9.
