Supermoon

We did not see the supermoon last night, but at just past it's perigee tonight, it still looks pretty great:

the 2011 March full moon falls on the same date as perigee – the moon’s closest point to Earth for the month. At perigee yesterday, the moon lay only 356,575 kilometers (221,575 miles) away.
