What is a "Super Moon" ?

We are slated to have a Super Moon tonight and tomorrow morning.
What is a Super Moon?
A Super Moon is when the moon will be at its closest point to the Earth all year — appearing 14 percent bigger and as much as 30 percent brighter than other full Moons of 2012, according to NASA. Technically, it’s a perigee moon, which occurs when the moon reaches the nearest point in its oval orbit.
