【英語閱讀】今晚元宵節，17時驚現“超大月亮”。今晚17：03，是月球全年距離地球最近的一刻，此時月亮呈現“最圓”。

The opportune coincidence will see the biggest and brightest full moon of the year to shine on the night of the festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar month every year.

"A supermoon occurs when the moon is simultaneously full and at its perigee (the point in the moon's orbit when it is closest to Earth). When this happens, the moon appears 14 percent larger and 30 percent brighter in the sky than usual," said Hu Fanghao, director of science popularization at the Purple Mountain Observatory. 

The supermoon could be seen across China on the night of the Lantern Festival. The ideal viewing time is set to be at 17: 03 pm today when the moon will be at its fullest.

譯文:

適當的巧合將是每年最大和最亮的滿月在節日的夜晚閃耀，這是每年農歷正月初的第15天。 

“當月亮同時充滿并且在它的近地點（月球軌道上最接近地球的點）時發生一次超級月亮。當這種情況發生時，月球比平時亮14％，天空亮30％，” 紫金山天文臺科普主任胡方浩說。 

在元宵節的晚上可以看到整個中國的超級月亮。 理想的觀看時間定在今天晚上17點03分，月亮將是最充分的。
