For the first time this century, a full moon will be lighting up the sky on Christmas.
According to The Weather Channel, there hasn’t been a full moon on Christmas since 1977, and there won’t be another till 2034.
December’s moon, nicknamed the “cold moon” or “long nights moon,” will reach its peak size on Dec. 25 at around 6:11 a.m.
For those in the U.S., the moon will be best viewed on Christmas Eve while those in Europe may get a better glimpse on Christmas day itself.
