Introduction

Skywatchers in Pakistan are in for another celestial treat! 🌙
After October’s stunning lunar display, two more Supermoons will light up Pakistan’s night skies — one in November and the final one in December 2025.

These upcoming full moons are expected to be larger, brighter, and more breathtaking than usual, with the November 2025 Supermoon predicted to be the brightest of the year, according to SUPARCO and international astronomical reports.

What Is a Supermoon?

A Supermoon occurs when a full moon coincides with the closest point in the Moon’s orbit (perigee) to Earth.
At this time, the Moon can appear up to 14% larger and 30% brighter than a regular full moon — easily visible to the naked eye and perfect for photography lovers.
