Full moons happen every lunar cycle, but the one happening on August 10 will be unlike any moon we have seen so far this year.

Not only it will be the biggest and brightest full moon for all of 2014, it will coincide with the peak time of the Perseid Meteor shower.

When the moon is full as it makes its closest pass to Earth, it becomes a "Supermoon.” During this time, the moon will appear 30 percent brighter and 14 percent larger.

Experts say the moon will be up to 31,000 miles closer to Earth than other full moons this year. According to NASA, the next time a full moon will pass this close to Earth will be in September 2015.

The brightness of the nearly full moon however, could provide some obstruction to seeing the Perseid Meteor Shower as it peaks August 12 and 13. During that time, nearly 100 meteors per hour can be seen under optimal viewing conditions, away from city lights.

The Perseid meteor shower occurs annually as Earth travels through the dust and debris from Comet Swift-Tuttle. As they collide with the Earth’s atmosphere, they disintegrate to create colorful streaks in the night sky.

Lingering clouds from evening thunderstorms could hinder the view for some, but late night clearing could offer a better venue.
