Qantas set launch supermoon scenic flight
“Fly Me to the moon” could soon become a regular statement for eager travelers in Australia
Australia’s leading airline, Qantas is now selling tickets for a one-off flight which will give passengers a chance to catch a closer look at next month’s supermoon.
The flight will soar high above the clouds to give passengers an ultimate view of the next supermoon event.
The three-hour scenic flight will take off from Sydney.
In a statement Qantas said:
“CSIRO astronomer Dr. Vanessa Moss will work with the pilots to design the optimal flight path over the Pacific Ocean and also join the flight to provide insights into supermoons and all things space and astronomy.”
It will be the second and last supermoon for 2021 and also coincides with a full lunar eclipse, making it a rare double phenomenon.
The moon is expected to turn red against the night sky.
