NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“A Solstice Moon” is copyrighted by Tunc Tezel. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

June's Full Moon, seen here from Bursa, Turkey, happened within 28 hours of the solstice. The Moon stays close to the Sun's path along the ecliptic plane. So, while the solstice Sun climbed high, June's Full Moon remained low in the northern night sky. This image captures its path from moonrise to moonset.
