This is a full moon from two months ago, but I'm putting in here because I can.

Sunday, June 3, 2012 - FULL MOON early tomorrow.

June 4, 2012 -7:12 a.m. EDT -- Full Strawberry Moon.  Known to every Algonquin tribe, Europeans called it the Rose Moon. A partial eclipse of the moon will be visible chiefly favoring those living around the Pacific Rim. Observers in Japan and Australia for instance, can see it at, or soon after, moonrise, while those in the western United States and western Canada see it at, or just before, moonset.  At maximum, about 37 percent of the moon’s diameter will be immersed in the dark umbra shadow of the Earth.
