TL;DR Summary

Skywatchers around the world captured stunning images and footage of the Pink Moon, April 2023's full moon, which is named after the annual bloom of Phlox subulata, a pink wildflower native to North America. Despite its name, the Pink Moon doesn't actually look very pink. Other Native American traditions refer to the blossoming of plant life during the onset of spring. The next full moon, which rises on May 5, is called the Full Moon of Flowers. Astrophotography enthusiasts can check out Space.com's guide on how to photograph the moon.
