There's going to be a full moon on Christmas day - one of the brightest full moons. The last time this happened on Christmas day was 1977.
Stargazers will be given a rare treat this Christmas day as the final full moon of the year peaks on 25 December.
The last time a full moon dawned in the skies on Christmas was in 1977, and the event won't happen again until 2034.
December's full moon is called the Full Cold Moon because it occurs during the beginning of winter and it will peak at 06.11 EST (23.11 GMT Christmas Eve).
