The full moon will reach peak illumination in the United States on Wednesday, July 29, at 10:36 a.m. EDT, according to the U.S. Naval Observatory's Astronomical Applications Department.
The Old Farmer's Almanac, which began publishing Native American full moon names in the 1930s, states that July's full moon is traditionally called the buck moon because male deer, or bucks, typically begin growing new antlers around this time of year. Their new antlers emerge covered in a layer of velvety fur.
