The full moon in July is referred to as the Buck Moon, named for the period when male deer have fully developed their antlers. This year, it will peak on July 10 at 4:37 p.m. ET. Antlers serve vital functions for bucks, such as attracting mates and self-defense. Although they are shed later, they provide calcium sources for smaller animals. The moon will appear full for several days surrounding the peak date, allowing for ample viewing opportunities.
July's full moon is known as the "Buck Moon," which gets its name due to the time of year when male deer have impressively full antlers.
The Buck Moon peaks on Thursday, July 10, 2023, reaching its peak illumination at 4:37 p.m. ET, making it a spectacular sight to witness.
