Supermoon Rises Over Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco Skyline

Timelapse footage showed https://www.almanac.com/content/full-moon-august the first supermoon of 2024 rising over the Golden Gate Bridge and the San Francisco skyline on Monday evening, August 19. The footage, filmed by Shreenivasan Manievannan, caught the super blue moon in all its glory, shining in an orange haze as it rose over the San Francisco Bay. A blue moon occurs when a full moon is visible twice in a single month and is not due to its color, according to https://science.nasa.gov/solar-system/moon/super-blue-moons-your-questions-answered/ NASA . When the Moon is at or near its closest point to Earth at the same time as it is full, it is called a "supermoon." Manievannan told Storyful he filmed the footage from Marin Headlands, managing to get the shot after clouds and fog cleared. (Footage by Shreenivasan Manievannan/Storyful via Getty Images UGC)
