When will pink moon be visible in Pakistan?
Pakistan will be a witness to the Pink Moon on Sunday as it will be the brightest and biggest full Moon to be spotted in the sky at 9:08pm.
The first full moon of spring, known as the Pink Moon, will rise on the night of Friday, April 12, offering a breathtaking celestial display across North America and much of the world.
Though the name may suggest a rosy hue, the Pink Moon doesn’t appear pink.
The name originates from the herb moss pink, or creeping phlox, a wildflower native to North America that blooms in early spring.
According to Starwalk, it will be about 5.1% smaller than an average full moon, though the difference is hard to notice.
The most visually striking time to view the Pink Moon is just after sunset, when it first rises above the horizon
The “moon illusion” is an optical effect that makes the moon appear larger and more luminous when it’s low in the sky—the full moon will appear particularly dramatic during this phase.
The next full moon will be the Flower Moon, expected on May 12, 2025. This year features 12 full moons, including three supermoons and two total lunar eclipses.
One of these eclipses will be visible in Karachi on the night of September 7–8.
