A super moon is basically a full or new moon when it’s within 90% of its closest point to Earth, according to EarthSky.org. So, you can have your telescopes handy but you won’t really need one to see the spectacular strawberry moon.

EarthSky estimates the strawberry moon will be about 222,089 miles away from Earth. June’s super moon is called a strawberry moon because traditionally, this time of year is when many species of berries are ready for harvest and are at their ripest, particularly sweet strawberries, according to EarthSky.org.

This year’s strawberry moon will reach peak illumination at 7:52 a.m. ET, or 11:52 UTC, on June 14. In North or South America, EarthSky notes, the fullest moon hangs in the West before sunrise on Wednesday. "Note that all full moons rise about an hour later each day.

Rogers outage exposes Canada’s reliance on telcos: ‘We don’t have a lot of options’
Rogers network outage on Friday showcased Canada’s reliance on the telecommunications industry, experts say, as over 10 million people nationwide were left without service, struggling to make purchases, and unable to use their phones and access Wi-Fi for nearly an entire day.“When you’re so close to something, it’s hard to actually understand just how reliant you are,” Tyler Chamberlin, associate professor at the University of Ottawa’s Telfer School of Management, told Global News.“So, having it knocked out is a big disruption.” Canada’s industry minister to meet with Rogers CEO after ‘unacceptable’ outage Chamberlin was in Toronto during the outage and heard frequent announcements in the grocery store while shopping that paying with debit wouldn’t be an option at checkout.“Store employees were having to take back big baskets of goods and restock the shelves because people literally had to walk away,” he said.“The fact people were actually walking away from their groceries in the grocery store, that’s sad. That’s what I worry about.”And, as technology systems will always face inevitable failures, similar outages could likely happen in the future.“The idea that we’re going to avoid this altogether is, I think, probably unrealistic,” Chamberlin said.“There’s only so much that can be done in terms of the actual plumbing of the internet.
