The full moon rises behind the U.S. Capitol Dome in Washington on Saturday called a "Super Moon" as it arrived at its closest point to Earth in 2011. It was earlier called the Full Worm Moon by the American Native tribes as the ground would begin to soften and the earthworms reappear during this time of the year. It is also known as the Full Crow Moon, the Full Crust Moon, and the Full Sap Moon. The name SuperMoon was given by astrologer Richard Nolle in 1979.
