2021 has given us spectacular views of the skies. There has already been a lunar eclipse, a partial solar eclipse, and supermoons to view. The last supermoon of 2021 will be visible on Thursday, June 24th when the Strawberry Full Moon appears.
The moon will look “full” three nights in a row. Expect to see it in the night sky early Wednesday morning through Saturday till the sun rises.

Strawberry Moon History
The Farmer’s Almanac marks the Strawberry Moon as the first full moon of the summer. This supermoon comes just a few days after the June 20th “summer solstice.” This is also the first day of summer 2021.
