How it is worked out
The nameThe Beaver Moon is November’s full moon, by the names North American almanacs give each month’s. The names here follow the calendar in UTC, so near a month’s end a full moon can carry the next month’s name in the Americas.
FullFull is the instant the moon stands opposite the sun, worked out from Meeus’s lunar theory to the minute.
The evening it rises fullOf the moonrises on the day it is full and the days either side, the one nearest that instant: the moon’s upper edge clearing a level horizon, as on the moon pages.
A supermoonA full moon nearer than 363,000 km, the almanacs’ rule.
