Strawberry moon for summer solstice in Rome

This year there will be a rare June full moon, known as the strawberry moon, on the night of the Summer Solstice on 20 June, the longest day in the year.

This will be the first time in almost 70 years for the northern hemisphere to experience a Solstice Full Moon, which last occurred in 1948, according to the National Geographic.
