Catch the January 2026 Wolf Supermoon: Brighter, Bigger, and High in the Sky!

  • The January 2026 Wolf Supermoon, the first full moon of 2026, rises early Saturday, Jan. 3, marking the last of four consecutive supermoons.
  • It will appear larger and brighter, reaching full phase at 5:03 a.m. EST, best viewed at moonrise from eastern-facing locations.
  • Named for mid-winter and wolves, this supermoon climbs higher and stays visible longer than others due to its post-winter solstice position.
  • 2026 features 13 full moons, including a blue moon, the last total lunar "blood moon" until 2029, and two eclipses (March 3, Aug 27-28).
  • Upcoming celestial events include Jupiter's opposition a week later and the Snow Moon on Feb 1, 2026.

Why It Matters: Don't miss the January 2026 Wolf Supermoon, a bright start to a year of celestial wonders.
