Stargazers across the world captured the rare sight last night of the Full Strawberry Moon rising unusually low in the night sky, its lowest since 2006.
Amy Leigh captured the rare celestial event in the Scottish skies of Pentland Hills, appearing red-tinted a few days earlier, due to its low position on the horizon, as light passes through Earth’s thicker atmosphere.
This striking visual is linked to a major lunar standstill, a phenomenon that won’t occur again until 2043.
Named after the wild strawberry harvest, this Moon marks a rare celestial moment for skywatchers.
