SuperMoon for Concert Sat 19 Mar

Sun 13 Mar 2011—SuperMoon for Moonlight Concert

ICA's Moonlight Concert by the Bay featuring local artists scheduled for Saturday night, will have a especially beautiful moon for the pleasure of Corozaleños, it will be a SuperMoon.

Super Moon is a word coined over 30 years ago to describe when a full moon occurs when it is at or near its closest approach to Earth. This can happen several times a year.

The Earth, Moon, and Sun are always in a line when the Moon is full. This alignment is termed a syzygy. When this occurs when the Moon is closest to Earth in its orbit, it is called perigee. So 19 March, 2011 the Moon alignment will be a perigee-syzygy, but Super Moon is much easier to say.

It should be a beautiful sight to see the SuperMoon rising on Corozal Bay on Saturday night. The Moon will rise as the Sun sets, and this will be approximately 6:00 pm.

A Corozal woman, Vilma Romero, pictured with the mayor of Corozal Town, His Worship Hilberto Campos, was recently honored nationally as the woman artist of the year. You can read the details of her artistic life at the exhibit, as well as of all the other nine women artists featured.
