April 12's full moon is known as the 'pink' full moon and will be the first full micromoon of 2025. Here is everything you need to know about how to catch a glimpse of it in the night sky.

I pick out North America’s celestial highlights for the week ahead (which also apply to mid-northern latitudes in the northern hemisphere).

The Pink Moon will be visible in the night sky on April 12. While the moon won’t appear pink, it will be the smallest full moon of this year, dubbed as ‘Micromoon’ by scientific and astronomical discussions about full moons that occur when the Moon is at its farthest point from Earth. Micromoons appear smaller in diameter than usual full moons.
