TULSA, Oklahoma -- If you looked up anytime Saturday night you may have seen the biggest, brightest full moon in almost 20 years.

News On 6 viewers were able to snap several pictures of Saturday's super perigee moon despite cloudy conditions.

According to NASA, full Moons vary in size because of the Moon's orbit is not a perfect circle around the Earth. NASA says the orbit is an ellipse with one side, called a perigee, about 31,000 miles closer to Earth than the other, called an apogee.
