This week Stargazers are in for a treat as the Super Strawberry Moon is set to make an appearance across the night sky. 

The celestial event sees Earth's natural satellite appear nearly 14% bigger and 30% brighter. 

But this event is particularly special because it is both a supermoon and a Strawberry Moon. 

The full moon in June is also referred to as the Strawberry Moon as according to NASA it coincides with the harvesting season of the fruit in North America.

It also goes by the other name, Rose Moon, Mead Moon and Honey Moon as late June is the time of year for harvesting. 

And ahead of the moon being at the brightest and biggest, we've got all the information for how best to see it. 

How to see the Super Strawberry Moon in London:

The moon is expected to be at its peak on Tuesday, June 14 at 12.51 pm BST. 

Although a full moon appearing at its peak during daylight seems odd, it is the exact moment when the sun and moon are on opposite sides of the earth, which can happen at any point. 

But the good news is, the strawberry moon will be appearing for a few days in and around June 14, so you have plenty of chances to spot it. 

To get the best view you'll want to be in a high spot away with no obstruction for your view and be able to look up into the sky- but if it's sunny you might want to some sunnies with you. 

If the weather is cloudy, there's no need to panic as you'll be able to watch it via this webcast for free.
