The moon appears larger in the sky during the "moon illusion," which occurs when it is near the horizon compared to when it is higher in the sky. This optical illusion is due to the way our brains perceive size in relation to nearby objects, making the moon look larger when it's framed by buildings or trees. In reality, the moon's size does not change; it's simply a trick of perception.
