Keep your eyes on the sky on Saturday night as the world will see the biggest full moon for 19 years.
Within an hour of the moon reaching a point in its cycle known as 'lunar perigee', it will appear unusually large in the night sky.
Stargazers will be treated to a spectacular view when the moon approaches Earth at a distance of 221,567 miles in its elliptical orbit - the closest it will have passed to our planet since 1992.
The full moon could appear up to 14% bigger and 30% brighter to the naked eye, especially when it rises on the eastern horizon at sunset or is provided with the right atmospheric conditions.
