On the night of July 14-15, 2014, the Moon reached perigee and It turned out to be 362062 kilometers from the Earth. It’s pretty close – average distance from us to our natural satellite is 384,401 kilometers. The rapprochement coincided with the full moon. This combination is called super moon. And the moon itself – Super moon.
Super Moon is unusually beautiful. The celestial body increases in visible sizes by about 14 percent and becomes brighter almost by a third. Amateur astronomers are waiting for this spectacle. And naturally take pictures.
Nor did Lee Thompson from London. But to him fortunate enough to remove not only Super Moon, but also some object on her background. The object was moving.

Experts initially suggested that the frame was International space station (ISS). But took a closer look and doubted – not similar to the ISS. The form is not that. And the ISS should not be visible above British capital at this time, namely on the night of July 15. The word that Thompson photographed is not known. Some kind of UFO.
