The full moon of April 2024 put on a show for photographers, shining brightly in the spring night sky.
The Full Pink Moon rose on April 23, 2024, putting a damper on the chances of catching any Lyrid meteors but providing a good target for cameras around the world. The full moon graced the sky mostly on its own, with several planets appearing to rise just hours before it arrived on the morning of April 24.
If you missed the full moon in the sky last night, we’ve got you covered with a collection of Full Pink Moon photos.
