  • A Full Strawberry Moon crossed the night sky over Virginia this morning in the constellation Scorpius, dodging some thick clouds and rapidly dipping below the horizon with the red supergiant Antares as the Sun rose in the east. The Moon can appear to have the surface marks of fruit seeds when viewing through a red filter. #FullStrawberryMoon #StrawberryMoon #FullMoon #Moon #NightSky #Astronomy
