Super pink moon rises

The super pink moon rises over Mount Pisgah at the east end of Tamaqua Monday night. The pink moon isn’t actually pink but is named to honor early pink blossoms of spring. Supermoons are full moons that appear larger and more luminous in the sky because they are a bit closer to Earth than usual. DONALD R. SERFASS/SPECIAL TO THE TIMES NEWS
