On this date it will be a new dark moon. On May 20th, the moon will be apparent from almost every point of the Earth and thus easy to compare. The supermoon appears bigger than the sun on this day. On May 6th, the moon was at perigee, which is the closest point to the Earth in its elliptical orbit. At apagee, the moon will fit just inside the sun and will be the farthest distance away from the Earth and this will occur on May 20th.
