Pink Moon Tonight:
April’s full “Pink Moon” will reach peak illumination at 7:49 p.m. Eastern time tonight.
NASA says it will be visible from tonight until Thursday morning. The Old Farmer’s Almanac says the name “Pink Moon” has nothing to do with the moon’s actual color.
The moniker is connected to the early Spring bloom of certain wildflowers, including one native to eastern North America that is often called “moss pink.”
