In a statement, Astronomy Ireland said this week's supermoon will be "30% brighter than at other times".
As such, it is calling for members of the public to take photos of the celestial event and then send them into the astronomy society so that it can possibly publish them in an upcoming issue of its magazine.
"We are urging everyone to get creative and send us your photographs of the SuperMoon rising at approximately 10.45pm Monday, or tomorrow night at 11.20pm Tuesday," said the magazine's founder and editor David Moore.
"This is the first of four supermoons that occur in 2023 so there is a very exciting season of supermoon watching ahead."
Photos of the supermoon rising can be sent to Astronomy Ireland via the email address magazine@astronomy.ie.
