Get ready to look up for the year’s biggest and brightest supermoon. And it's pairing up with a comet for a rare stargazing two-for-one.

October’s full moon is the closest supermoon of the year, at a distance of about 222,055 miles from Earth. September’s full moon was just behind it, at 222,131 miles away. While any supermoon can appear bigger and brighter than usual, the proximity of this one adds to its effect.

Keen photographers from across East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire have captured photos of Thursday's Hunter's supermoon. Supermoons happen when the Moon is closest to the Earth, appearing bigger and brighter than normal - up to 15% brighter and 30% bigger than regular full Moons.
