What is a "Micro Moon"?
Quick Answer: A Micro Moon happens when the full moon is at its farthest point from Earth in its orbit, making it appear smaller and dimmer than usual in the night sky.
The moon's orbit around Earth is not a perfect circle, so its distance changes. When the moon is at its farthest point, called apogee, it looks smaller. This smaller appearance is what we call a Micro Moon.
Because the moon is farther, it reflects less sunlight toward us, making it seem less bright. It's the opposite of a Supermoon, when the moon is closest and looks bigger and brighter.
