Täysipuulla

Täysipuulla is a Finnish term that translates to "full moon" in English. It refers to the lunar phase when the Moon appears fully illuminated from Earth's perspective. This occurs when the Earth is located between the Sun and the Moon, and the Sun's rays are directly illuminating the entire face of the Moon visible to us. The full moon is a visually striking phenomenon in the night sky and has been a significant element in various cultures, mythologies, and calendars throughout history.

In many cultures, the full moon has been associated with increased activity, heightened emotions, and various folklore. Astronomical observatories and amateur stargazers alike observe the full moon, noting its brightness and distinct features. The precise timing of the full moon is determined by the orbital mechanics of the Earth and Moon. It marks the midpoint of the lunar cycle, which is approximately 29.5 days long. Following the full moon, the illuminated portion of the Moon visible from Earth gradually decreases until it reaches the new moon phase.
