Lunar Perigee

Tonight is the night of the latest lunar perigee and I can’t wait to get out there this evening with my binoculars, my camera and my little girl of course.  She’s almost as excited as I am to see the sky tonight, clouds permitting. 

Here’s the best, most concise video I have managed to find on the subject, from NASA. 

And here’s a link to the Sky at Night magazine page on the perigee…

I hope you all manage to catch a glimpse too.
