News Harvest Moon Rising by The Boston Sun Staff • October 7, 2020 • 0 Comments Wednesday night, Sept. 30, the Harvest Moon rose mightily above the Back Bay and seemed to envelop the Prudential Center as it rose. The marvelous moon showing was captured by many, but few caught it over the Back Bay like Sasha Sherman did here. The Harvest Moon, later in the night, also featured a very close sighting of Mars next to it – making it even more mysterious to Earthly viewers.
