I remember seeing a supermoon about 9 years ago whilst driving home at dusk. I was travelling eastbound up a hill, and as I neared the crest of the hill the moon was suddenly visible on the horizon directly in front of me. A phenonemal sight as it was a bright full moon and had just risen. It appeared to fill the whole windscreen and felt as if I could drive into it. Never seen anything like it before, and I had never heard of a supermoon or the optical illusion created when low on the horizon.
