Tonight will be 2010's biggest and brightest full moon! A Native American monkier, also calls this "wolf moon," stating that hungry wolves used to howl at the moon on cold winter nights. The shape of the moon will be an ellipse, causing it to reach the closest point to Earth, therefore making it more brilliant than others to come. According to http://www.spaceweather.com/, tonight's moon will be about 14 percent wider and 30 percent brighter than lesser full moons of the year. Be sure to see if you can spot the man on the moon! Story from http://news.yahoo.com/s/space/20100129/sc_space/biggestandbrightestfullmoonof2010tonight
