Supermoon on March 19th

On March 19th 2011, the moon will make its closest approach to Earth in almost 20 years, possibly triggering earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other disasters and high level tides.

The phenomenon, called lunar perigee or Supermoon, happens when the moon reaches its absolute closest point to Earth. On March 19, the natural satellite will be only 221,567 miles away from our planet. There were Supermoons in 1955, 1974, 1992 and 2005, and these years had their share of extreme weather conditions, too. Although there are scientific laws that say the moon affects the Earth, it’s still ambiguous whether the lunar perigee and natural disasters is coincidence or not.British freelance weatherman John Kettley was quoted as saying “A moon can’t cause a geological event like an earthquake, but it will cause a difference to the tide. If that combines with certain weather conditions, then that could cause a few problems for coastal areas.” While hoping for a non-disastrous ‘moon giant’, point your eyes and camera lenses toward the night sky on 19th. If the sky is clear, you’re gonna get an exceptional celestial treat. But according to NASA "The effects on Earth from a supermoon are minor, and according to the most detailed studies by terrestrial seismologists and volcanologists, the combination of the moon being at its closest to Earth in its orbit, and being in its 'full moon' configuration (relative to the Earth and sun), should not affect the internal energy balance of the Earth since there are lunar tides every day," But while the moon helps drive Earth's tides, it is not capable of triggering devastating earthquakes. "The Earth has stored a tremendous amount of internal energy within its thin outer shell or crust, and the small differences in the tidal forces exerted by the moon (and sun) are not enough to fundamentally overcome the much larger forces within the planet due to convection (and other aspects of the internal energy balance that drives plate tectonics)" Technorati Tags: supermoon, 2011, Supermoon, Effect, supermoon, 1992, super, moon, effect, supermoon, effects, supermoon, 2005, 1992, supermoon, effects, of, supermoon, next, natural, disaster, moon, close, to, earth, 2011, super, moon, effects, when, is, moon, closest, to, earth, in, 2011, supermoon, disaster, super, moon, 2011, supermoon, super, moon, 1992, effect, of, supermoon, when, is, supermoon, supermoon, disasters, effects, of, Super, moon, super, moon, 2005, when, is, the, next, supermoon, supermoon, natural, disasters, 2005, supermoon, Super, Moon, disaster, Supermoon, may, cause, natural, disasters, next, week, when, is, the, super, moon, when, is, the, next, super, moon, super, moon, supermoon, 1955, next, supermoon, NASA, Supermoon, 1992, super, moon, supermoon, india, next, super, moon, EFFECT, OF, SUPER, MOON, supermoon, nasa, SUPERMOON, NATURAL, DISASTER, supermoon, in, india, what, will, be, the, next, natural, disaster, supermoon, 1974, super, moon, 1955, super, moon, disasters, supermoon, in, 2005, Supermoon, on, March, 19th, may, cause, natural, disasters, 1955, supermoon, supermoon, pictures, Supermoons, supermoon, in, 1992, supermoon, effect, on, India, Supermoon, may, cause, disaster, 2005, super, moon, what, is, the, next, natural, disaster, super, moon, effect, in, india, Super, Moon, on, March, 19th, may, cause, natural, disasters, natural, disasters, 1992, supermoon, effects, in, india, super, moon, in, 2005, super, moon, nasa, 1955, natural, disasters, effect, of, supermoon, in, India, will, super, moon, affect, India, natural, disasters, in, 2011, super, moon, in, india, Supermoon, effect, in, india, 1974, supermoon, natural, disasters, in, 1992, super, moon, india, supermoon, and, natural, disasters, super, moon, natural, disasters, 1992, natural, disasters, effect, of, supermoon, on, india, impact, of, supermoon, March, 19, moon, disaster, the, next, natural, disaster, natural, disasters, 2011, supermoon, may, cause, natural, disasters, moon, closest, to, earth, 2011, Super, Moon, effect, on, India, supermoon, affects, effects, of, supermoon, in, india, the, next, supermoon, What, natural, disaster, is, next, supermoon, pics, super, moon, effect, on, earth, super, moon, in, 1992, supermoon, and, disasters, supermoon, and, natural, disaster, 19, march, 2011, disaster, 1955, natural, disaster, moon, close, to, earth, natural, disaster, super, moon, effects, in, india, supermoon, 2011, nasa, supermoon, japan, NASA, super, moon, when, is, the, next, super, moon?, when, is, the, super, moon?, 1955, super, moon, effect, of, super, moon, in, india, may, 19, 2011, moon, moon, causing, natural, disasters, impact, of, super, moon, may, 19, moon, moon, closer, to, earth, 2011, super, moon, effects, on, india
