Strawberry moon over Bremen: A unique spectacle in the night sky!

On the night of Thursday, June 11, 2025, a special spectacle will be on offer in Bremen: The strawberry moon appears in the sky and causes excitement among stargazers and romantics. Astronomer Andreas Vogel from the Olbers Planetarium has some tips on where the spectacle can best be observed. A recommended viewing point is the Metalhenge near the Bremen Müllberg, from where there is a clear view of the southern horizon.

The full moon in June is called the Strawberry Moon because it coincides with the harvest season of the sweet fruit. Historically, the term has deep roots; He previously pointed out that people used the moon to plan their harvest. “It helps to structure everyday life,” explains Dr. Björn Voss, director of the planetarium in Hamburg. Above all, this Strawberry Moon is something very special because it is the deepest full moon until 2043. This rare deep moon phenomenon only happens every 18 years, and due to the large lunar standstill, the moon will be very low on the horizon and will only move slowly.

A dazzling spectacle

The moon is currently around 400,000 kilometers from Earth, with minimal fluctuations between 360,000 and 405,000 kilometers possible. One reason for these differences is the attractive forces of the sun and the different mass distributions inside the earth. This night the moon will appear particularly large shortly after it rises - a truly impressive sight! In northern Germany the moon will rise around 9:30 p.m. and although there may be some clouds in the sky, visibility remains assured.

A feast for the senses

The combination of the upcoming daylight savings time and the Strawberry Moon couldn't be better to give people a reason to celebrate. Whether alone, as a couple or with friends, looking at the moon always offers a romantic atmosphere that makes hearts beat faster. Registration and a view of the Strawberry Moon are a must for anyone who is enthusiastic about astronomy or simply wants to raise their head to the sky.

Take the opportunity to marvel at this extraordinary full moon - the next one will not appear again for 18 years. May you not miss the feeling of wonder! You can also find more information about the strawberry moon at Mirror and factastic.de.
