This Weekend a 'Snow Moon' Will Light Up the Sky

The moon is going to put on a show this weekend. Native Americans called the second full moon of winter a "Snow Moon." It will also be a Supermoon, which means it is at its closest distance to earth. This full moon will signal the start of Jewish celebrations of Tu BiShvat, known as "New Year of the Trees," but it will also signify the end of Chinese New Year celebrations.
