A very rare astronomical event will occur tonight as millions will witness a massive Supermoon on the first day of 2018.

The new supermoon, nicknamed the 'wolf moon' which will kick off the first day of the year, will be at the closest point to the earth in twelve months causing a cataclysmic event.  

The first night of the year will see the moon approach the earth at a distance of 356 thousand kilometers making it appear 14% bigger and 30% brighter.

Researchers have also speculated that supermoon may trigger more earthquakes and other natural disasters across the earth because of the heightened.

According to NASA, January's first full moon will be the first of 2018 and it will be closely followed by another just weeks later.

Sputnik news reports: Earthlings are set to witness a rare astronomical event in the beginning of the year – a supermoon. During the occasion, our planet's natural satellite will be at its closest point to the Earth this year.

On the first night of the year, the moon will approach the Earth at a distance of 356 thousand kilometers and will look 14% bigger and 30% brighter compared to the moment when it’s at the farthest point from the Earth’s orbit.

“A beautiful picture awaits the observers on the night of January 2 — at midnight the supermoon will be high above the constellation of Orion, in Gemini,” the Moscow Planetarium said in a statement, stressing that the event will be visible till Tuesday morning in Moscow, given that there will be cloudless weather in Moscow.

Though it’s hard to observe the change in the moon's size during the super moon with the naked eye, such astronomical events may stimulate the interest in astronomy, according to Russian astronomer Vladimir Surdin.

The New Year’s supermoon will be the first noteworthy astronomical event in a series of similar occasions this year. The second supermoon will occur on January 31 and will coincide with the full moon eclipse.
