Strawberry moon 2025: The deepest full moon has been ready for 18 years!

On June 11, 2025, there are several exciting events in Hesse. With a clear sky, people can admire the strawberry moon, which today rises on the horizon after dark. This full moon, also known for the fact that it heralds the summer in the northern hemisphere, will offer a special spectacle. With its flat track it will not only appear larger, but is also the deepest full moon until 2043. In this way, the astronomical conditions are optimal to enjoy this sight to the fullest.

This is a tradition that is deeply rooted in history. The name "Strawberry Moon" refers to the time of the strawberry harvest in June. According to Dr. Björn Voss, the director of the planetarium in Hamburg, helped people to structure people earlier, their everyday life and the course of the year. He explains that, despite its slow movement on the horizon, the strawberry moon will offer us an impressive spectacle that can be observed every 18.6 years.

active Bundeswehr and natural miracle

While the star friends spend the night under the strawberry moon, the Bundeswehr soldiers are also active. 150 soldiers are carrying out a parachute jump in the picturesque Edersee. At a pleasant 18 degrees of water temperature, the conditions are ideal to carry out the exercises and sharpen the skills of the soldiers. The exercise is part of extensive training measures that ensure the commitment of the troops.

The Kellerwald-Edersee National Park extends around the Edersee, which is a real natural miracle. Here impressive 36 primeval arguants, including unusual species as the plastic and the wide -brimmed tree cavity, were demonstrated. For nature lovers, this is a real attraction that underlines the importance of the region.

city life and current challenges

But not only nature has its charm, the urban challenges cannot be overlooked. In Babenhausen, over 190 people currently live in replacement accommodations because parts of the facade of their high -rise have fallen. The security of the residents is the top priority here.

In addition, the property damage of a major fire in Frankfurt-Fechenheim, which raged in October 2024, assumes an enormous extent with 10.94 million euros. The police continue to search for three people who are connected to the fire. A reward of 4,000 euros was also awarded for information on the identity of the second suspect.

In a completely different direction, the KNYG company from Heusenstamm thinks. It has developed a kinkable stainless steel drinking straw that arouses interest beyond the national borders. Walmart has already ordered 400,000 copies in the USA, where the drinking straw was quickly sold out. Such innovations show how Hessian companies can conquer new markets.

The social challenges are also visible in a ARD survey that shows that more and more children have to repeat the first class. This indicates persistent problems in the education system that need to be discussed.

In this versatile mixture of nature, education, security and innovation, life in Hesse is shown. No matter whether when looking at the sky on the strawberry moon or in everyday coexistence in the city - there is always a lot going on here.
