"The Maine Farmer's Almanac first published 'Indian' names for the full moons in the 1930s," Nasa said.
“According to this almanac, as the full moon in June and the last full moon of spring, the Algonquin tribes called this the Strawberry Moon.
"The name comes from the relatively short season for harvesting strawberries in the north-eastern United States.”
The Farmers' Almanac is an annual US periodical that has been in publication since 1818.
