The last of three supermoons in a row will be in the sky December 16, according to NASA.
It won't be like the spectacular sight in November, when the supermoon was closest full moon to Earth since 1948. That won't occur again until 2034.

But NASA said that if clouds cooperate, North America will have a chance to see this week's display.
What’s special about this event is that the supermoon coincides with the peak of an annual meteor display, December's Geminids.
The moon will make for poor meteor-viewing conditions.
NASA told Space.com that the light of the full moon will reduce visibility "five- to tenfold."
