The full harvest supermoon shone brightly in the night sky Tuesday evening. A partial lunar eclipse, with a “bite” taken from the moon, was also visible.

A supermoon has lit up the sky across the world, coinciding with a rare partial lunar eclipse. That meant the Moon - which is at its closest point to Earth in its orbit - appeared brighter and bigger on Tuesday night.

On Tuesday evening, stargazers in North America, South America, Europe, and Africa were treated to three celestial events taking place at the same time: the harvest moon, a blood moon, and a supermoon.
