Strawberry Moon




The Strawberry Moon is the name given to the full moon in June. The name comes from the Algonquin tribes of North America, who named it after the wild strawberries that ripened in June. The Strawberry Moon is also known as the Rose Moon, the Honey Moon, the Mead Moon, and the Hot Moon.

The Strawberry Moon will be visible in the night sky on June 3, 2023. It will rise in the east at around 9:00pm and set in the west at around 4:00am. The moon will be at its fullest at around 3:42am.

The Strawberry Moon is not a supermoon, which is a full moon that occurs when the moon is closest to the Earth in its orbit. However, the Strawberry Moon will still be a beautiful sight to see.

Here are some things you can do to enjoy the Strawberry Moon:

  • Go for a walk or hike and enjoy the view of the moon.
  • Have a picnic under the full moon.
  • Stargaze with friends and family.
  • Take some photos of the moon.
  • Write a poem or story about the Strawberry Moon.

The Strawberry Moon is a time to celebrate the beauty of the natural world. It is also a time to reflect on the coming of summer. Enjoy the view of the moon and make some memories that will last a lifetime.

  A Russian tourist was killed in a shark attack near a beach in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Hurghada on Thursday, June 8, 2023. The man, who was in his late 20s, was swimming near the Sahl Hasheesh resort when he was attacked by a shark. He was taken to a local hospital, but he died from his injuries. This is the third shark attack in Egypt in the past year. In July 2022, a 68-year-old Austrian woman was killed in a shark attack off the coast of Hurghada, and in October 2022, a Romanian tourist was injured in a shark attack off the coast of Sahl Hasheesh. Shark attacks are rare in the Red Sea, but they do happen. The Red Sea is home to a variety of sharks, including tiger sharks, bull sharks, and mako sharks. These sharks are not typically aggressive towards humans, but they can be if they feel threatened. The Egyptian government has closed off a 60-kilometer (37-mile) stretch of coastline near Hurghada in the wake of the attack. The closure is expected to last for at least a w...

In 2020, President Joe Biden signed a bill into law making Juneteenth a federal holiday. Juneteenth is now celebrated in all 50 states. Juneteenth is a time to celebrate the end of slavery in the United States and to reflect on the progress that has been made since then.

Donald Trump indicted on federal charges.

Image
Former President Donald Trump was indicted on federal charges on June 8, 2023. The charges include seditious conspiracy and obstruction of an official proceeding in connection with the January 6th Capitol riot. This is the first time a former president has been indicted on federal charges. The indictment alleges that Trump and his allies conspired to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden's victory. The indictment also alleges that Trump obstructed the certification process by inciting his supporters to attack the Capitol. Trump has denied all of the allegations against him. He has called the indictment a "witch hunt" and a "hoax." He has also vowed to fight the charges. The indictment is a major development in the ongoing investigation into the January 6th Capitol riot. It is also a significant blow to Trump's political career. It is unclear what the long-term consequences of the indictment will...
