Rostov residents watched the phenomenon of the “harvest moon”

Rostov residents watched the phenomenon of the “harvest moon”. On the night of September 28, a bright orange disk appeared in the sky.

Residents of the city captured the object and shared photos on social networks. Because of its position above the horizon, the moon appeared larger than normal, due to the optical effect.

A similar phenomenon was observed in other parts of Russia.

The satellite was named because of its seasonality. The indigenous peoples of North America and Europe began harvesting during this period. Usually this was done during the day, but the full moon during these months allowed you to work at night, illuminating everything around.
