See it on NASA's siteThe Harvest Moon is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere. Traditionally, this moon allowed farmers to work late into the night, harvesting crops by its extended light. The moon you saw on October 6 was the Harvest Moon, bright and full in the night sky.
