PHOTOS: Supermoon lights up night sky around the world

We present a set of pictures from around the world to show how the amazing 'super moon' enthralled the world last night.

A supermoon rises over the temple of Poseidon, the ancient Greek god of the seas, in CapeSounion some 60 km east of Athens. On Sunday, a perigee moon coincided with a full moon creating a "supermoon" when it will pass by the earth at its closest point in 2013.

A perigee moon, rises behind wind turbines near Palm Springs, California. The moon appears especially big and bright during this once-a-year cosmic event as the full moon is at its closest to the Earth in its elliptical orbit.

The perigee side of its orbit is about 31,000 miles closer than the opposite, or apogee, side. The bright light of the full moon also hides all but the brightest meteors of the Eta Aquarid meteor shower, the remnant debris trail of Halley's Comet.
