30 Most Powerful Images Of 2015

29. Supermoon

This stunning image captures a passenger airplane flying past the Supermoon in California on 27 September 2015. Though the definition is disputed among scientists, it generally infers a new or full moon that occurs with the Moon at or within 90% of its closest approach to Earth in a given orbit. The next time we will see a Supermoon will be in 2033, so cherish this one.
