Bekijk de supermanen en micromanen voor 2026. Bekijk onze uitgebreide kalender om de exacte data van supermanen en micromanen voor elk jaar te vinden. Mis deze spectaculaire maangebeurtenissen nooit. Dankzij onze supermaankalender vind je de exacte data en tijden van alle super volle manen, super nieuwe manen, micro volle manen en micro nieuwe manen in 2026. De data en tijden zijn in UTC en je lokale tijd.
Een supermaan doet zich voor wanneer een volle maan of nieuwe maan samenvalt met de Maan dicht bij het perigeum — het punt in haar licht ovale baan waar ze het dichtst bij de aarde staat. Omdat ze iets dichterbij is dan normaal, kan een super volle maan tot ongeveer 7% groter en 15% helderder lijken dan een gemiddelde volle maan, en duidelijk groter dan een micromaan, die zich voordoet nabij het apogeum, het verste punt van de Maan.
Het verschil is echt maar subtiel. Naast elkaar verschillen een supermaan en een micromaan ongeveer de breedte van een kleine munt op armlengte. Het effect is het meest indrukwekkend wanneer de Maan laag aan de horizon staat, waar de bekende "maanillusie" haar enorm doet lijken achter bomen en gebouwen.
Supermanen zijn niet zeldzaam — er zijn meestal drie of vier super volle manen per jaar, vaak in opeenvolgende maanden. De tabel hierboven somt elke super- en micro- volle en nieuwe maan van het gekozen jaar op, met exacte data en aarde–maanafstanden in zowel UTC als jouw lokale tijd, zodat je de beste nachten kunt plannen om te kijken.
No, it doesn’t generate its own light. “Moonlight” is really sunlight that has reflected off of the Moon’s surface. In the same way that the Sun illuminates Earth, the Moon reflects the Sun's light, making it appear bright in our sky.
Meer MaanfeitenIt depends on the time of day. The Moon is very hot in the daytime and very cold at night. The average temperature on the Moon varies from -298 degrees Fahrenheit (-183 degrees Celsius), at night, to 224 degrees Fahrenheit (106 degrees Celsius) during the day.
Meer MaanfeitenA "micromoon" is a term used in popular astronomy to describe a full moon or a new moon that occurs when the moon is at or near its apogee, which is the furthest point from Earth in its elliptical orbit. This is the opposite of a "supermoon," which occurs when a full moon or new moon is at or near its perigee, which is the closest point to Earth in its orbit."
Meer MaanfeitenThe Moon is the fifth largest satellite in the Solar System and the biggest in comparison to its host planet, with a diameter about one-quarter that of Earth. The exact diameter is 2159.14 miles (3 474.8 km ).
Meer MaanfeitenThe Moon crust is made of composed primarily of oxygen (O), silicon (Si), magnesium (Mg), iron (Fe), calcium (Ca), and aluminum (Al), but important minor and trace elements such as titanium (Ti), uranium (U), thorium (Th), potassium (K), and hydrogen (H) are present as well. Below the crust is the mantle coming, with a thickness of roughly 1350 km is far more extensive than the crust, which has an average thickness of about 50 km. The mantle is made of olivine, orthopyroxene and clino pyroxene. Finally, at the center is the Moon’s dense, metallic core. The core is largely composed of iron (Fe) and some nickel (Ni). The inner core is a solid mass of about 480 km in diameter. Surrounding the solid inner core is a fluid outer core, that brings the total diameter of the core to about 660 km.

Meer MaanfasenThe Moon makes Earth a more livable planet by moderating our home planet's wobble on its axis, leading to a relatively stable climate.

Meer Leuke feitenAn orange moon means the shorter wavelengths of light are being filtered away. This could be due to the low position on the horizon causing the light to go through more atmosphere, smoke in the air, or pollution.

MoonPhaseToday.org laat je de maanfase voor vandaag en vannacht zien, of voor een willekeurige dag, maand en jaar. De berekening van de maanfase is gebaseerd op je tijdzone, maar we tonen ook de exacte tijden in UTC-formaat. We hopen dat je onze tool nuttig en gebruiksvriendelijk vindt om de maanfasen te bepalen.
