JAKARTA The first full moon in 2025 will occur in the near future. According to a NASA report, the moon that appears opposite the Sun will occur on January 13 at around 17:37 EST.

The full moon in January is usually referred to as the Wolf Moon. Based on the Maine Farmers' Almanak, the wolf area will be heard outside the villages on the full moon of January. Therefore, the moon is called the Wolf Moon.

This astronomical phenomenon will be seen in the time zones of South Africa and Eastern Europe to the east. The full moon will cross the rest of Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, and others to the International Date Line in the Central Pacific.

The full moon will be seen for about three days. In some areas, this month it will look round and bright since January 12 at night. This astronomical phenomenon will end on Wednesday, January 15 morning.

During full moon nights, most of the continental region of the United States and parts of Africa, Canada, and Mexico will see a more attractive Moon look. The moon will be visible past the front of Planet Mars.

To get a perfect full moon view, astronomy enthusiasts can monitor the sky in the region. If astronomers monitor the sky from the area around Washington, DC, they can watch the sky since dusk in the morning on January 13.

During this full moon period, astronomers can also observe other planets such as Venus, Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, and Uranus from the night sky. Using the telescope, a number of these planets will be seen shifting from half-filled to sickle moons.
