We’re currently in the midst of an annual UK astronomy event known as the spring moonwatch. It was originally conceived by the Society for Popular Astronomy in the UK and the event usually falls between 28th March to 5th April annually, because the moon will be best placed for observation from the UK. What is more, because the moon stays high above the horizon for a long time, it results in what astronomer called better “seeing” which essentially is a nice steady atmospheric condition usually resulting in a steady and sharp image of the moon when observing it through a telescope.
