Full Moon May 2026: NASA Confirms It Will Appear 30% Larger and Trigger Global Ocean Anomalies
The viral rumor claiming the full moon in May 2026 will be the "largest and most dangerous in 200 years" is partially false. While NASA confirms the "Flower Moon" on May 22, 2026, will be a supermoon (appearing about 7% larger and brighter than average, not 30% ), there is no credible evidence it will trigger "global ocean anomalies" or tsunamis. The exaggeration stems from a hoax social media post misattributing data to a fictional "National Oceanic Emergency Agency." Fact-checkers rate the claim as primarily fake; enjoy the celestial event, but ignore the alarmist warnings.
