SUPER MOON!
Thanks to a fluke of orbital mechanics that brings the moon closer to Earth than that it has been in more than 18 years, the biggest full moon of 2011 will occur on Saturday 3/19, leading some observers to dub it a "supermoon."
On Saturday afternoon at 3 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time, the moon will arrive at its closest point to the Earth in 2011: a distance of 221,565 miles (356,575 kilometers) away. And only 50 minutes earlier, the moon will officially be full.

WHY?
OK, so I realize that I am late on this but whatever...
I have been watching classic Star Trek lately on TV and honestly I thought I was hallucinating when any visual FXs came on screen. Was I crazy or were the original scenes replaced with CGI? Well, I'm not crazy but the dick heads who thought this was a good idea are. Didn't we learn anything from George Lucas? Not to mention, what a slap in the face to the amazing talents that created the original models and effects back in the 60s! Way to shit on a legacy!
Oh, and the original stuff still looks better!
