Supermoon and lunar eclipse delight star gazers

A supermoon has lit up the sky across the world coinciding with a rare partial lunar eclipse. The Moon could be seen to appear brighter and bigger on Wednesday night. Supermoons happen when the Moon is at its closest point to Earth in its orbit.

A rare partial lunar eclipse - when the Earth's shadow covers part of the Moon - also happened with about 4% of the Moon's disc covered in darkness. From Wednesday night into Thursday, the lunar phenomenon was visible across the globe - with some of the clearest sightings in the UK and the US. The eclipse was also visible in Latin America, Europe and Africa, as well as small parts of Asia and the Middle East.
