JAKARTA – Phenomenon blue Moon can be observed in late August, Wednesday, August 30, 2023. This Blue Moon is the closest, largest, and brightest Full Moon of the year.
This is quite a rare phenomenon, which refers to when there are two Full Moons in a month. The Blue Moon will only appear again in 2037, before two more Supermoons occur in one month.
Launched by various sources, on Monday (14/8/2023), the Blue Moon will reach its peak on Wednesday 30 August 2023 at 21:36. With this Blue Moon phenomenon, the distance between the Moon and the Earth will be very close, i.e. only 222,043 miles.
Despite the name Blue Moon or Blue Moon, it won’t look blue at all. The term actually comes from a 16th century expression, where Blue Moon refers to something that never or rarely happens.
The blue blue moon only occurs under certain atmospheric conditions. For example, after the massive volcanic eruption of Krakatau in 1884, the Blue Moon turned blue.
This occurs because a very large cloud of ash and dust has been injected into the stratosphere (5 to 30 miles above the Earth’s surface), this aerosol cloud causes the Moon and Sun to appear blue from many locations in the Northern Hemisphere .
