Rising supermoon as seen from Marathon, west Texas, on September 27, 2015.
A supermoon is a new or full moon which occurs with the moon at or near (within 90% of) its closest approach to Earth in a given orbit (perigee). In short, Earth, moon and sun are all in a line, with moon in its nearest approach to Earth.
