Supermoon exceeds expectations
October 4, 2015
Last Sunday was an exciting moment for many students and faculty. This full moon was the biggest, closest and brightest supermoon of the year. The next time the moon becomes close to the Earth is Nov 14, 2016. Many students came to the Upper Field to view this spectacular event.
Sophomore Mira Zelle attended the viewing party for the supermoon.
“I used the super big telescope and you could see every lil’ bump on the surface,” Zelle said.
Zelle finds space fascinating. “Nobody really knows whats out there so it can kinda be what ever I want it to be. Also I really think we can find aliens in this lifetime and I definitely [want to] be working on that in the future,” Zelle said.

![ECLIPSE. A solar eclipse is a rare event in which the moon is between Earth and the Sun, blocking the view of the sun. In other parts of the United States, the view of the Sun will be totally blocked, constituting whats called a total eclipse. A total eclipse is a completely different event that is another level of coolness. So if they [the students] have that chance, they should absolutely take the chance to see a total eclipse if they ever can. The next one in Minnesota will be the year 2099, Astronomy and Planetary Science teacher Joseph Martin said.](https://www.rubiconline.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Drawing-8.sketchpad-600x360.png)
