Supermoon next week may cause disaster
We have heard of Superman, SuperNova and now here it is Supermoon!! :)
It might sound cool but it is not so Super... :(
For all the astro-watchers here is your time to watch the moon from the closest...
The world could be in for a bumpy ride next week when the moon will make its closest approach to Earth in almost 20 years!!
The astronomical event - "extreme supermoon" - may trigger earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other disasters.
An "extreme supermoon" occurs when the Earth's natural satellite reaches its absolute closest point. On March 19, the moon will be only 221,556 miles away - the first extreme super - moon in nearly 20 years.
Previous supermoons - or "lunar perigees" - happened in 1955, 1974, 1992 and 2005. Each year had extreme weather events.
A moon can't cause a geological event like an earthquake, but it will cause a difference to the tide. If that combines with certain weather conditions, then that could cause a few problems for coastal areas.

This little light which at night is a boon..
From far away moon will come near and become Supermoon..
It is not too far , it will happen soon..Supersoon..
Hope It does not cause much harm....
