Full moon another full supermoon occurred, closer to the Earth than at any time for the previous 18 years. On 14 November 2016, a full supermoon occurred closer to the Earth than at any time for the previous 68 years. The date and approximate time of a specific full moon (assuming a circular orbit) can be calculated from the following equation: where "d" is the number of days since 1 January 2000 00:00:00 in the Terrestrial Time scale used in astronomical ephemerides; for Universal Time (UT) add the following approximate correction to "d": where "N" is the number of full moons since
September equinox end of summer and the beginning of autumn (autumnal equinox) in the Northern Hemisphere, while marking the end of winter and the start of spring (vernal equinox) in the Southern Hemisphere.

However, due to the precession of the equinoxes, this point is no longer in
