We have a Full Moon SuperMoon coming up Monday night, January 1st-2nd, 2018. It'll be about 221,000 miles away from Earth and should look large in the sky.
Then there's another SuperMoon, called a Blue Moon because it's a 2nd full moon in one calendar month, on January 31st-Feb 1st, plus a Lunar Eclipse that should be seen in most parts of the world.
