Celestial Event Overview
June’s Strawberry Moon will reach its full phase at 12:43 AM (Pakistan Standard Time) on June 11.

It is the final full moon of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and the lowest full moon of the year.

The moon will be approximately 94,600 miles (152,200 km) from the sun, making it one of the farthest full moons.

Why Is It Special?
The low trajectory of the moon is due to its position opposite the sun, mirroring the sun’s highest point during the summer solstice on June 20.

The moon illusion may make it appear larger and golden due to atmospheric conditions.

The best time to view it is Tuesday, June 10, when it rises at dusk.

Historical & Cultural Significance
The name "Strawberry Moon" originates from Native American tribes, marking the ripening of wild strawberries.

Other traditional names include Berries Ripen Moon, Green Corn Moon, Hot Moon, and Blooming Moon.
