July 10 (UPI) -- July's full moon, the 'Buck Moon" will rise on Thursday, a reddish hue moon that gets it's name after the time of year where bucks start to grow their antlers.
The moon will reach its peak at 4:37 p.m. EDT on July 10. During moonrise the lunar disk appears larger than it is as it is positioned close to the horizon. It tricks our brains into giving the illusion that it's larger than it is when viewed.
It will be most visible after sunset at 8:53 p.m. EDT.
