What exactly is a blue moon?
The blue moon is usually of two types, the first one is a seasonal blue moon while the other one is a monthly blue moon.
- The seasonal moon is usually described as the third moon where there are a total of four full moons in a season.
On Monday evening, the blue moon 2024 will appear as a seasonal blue moon. The moon becomes larger in size and can be seen from the naked eye. NASA states that it approaches almost 90 percent closest to the earth during this phase.
- However, the monthly blue moon occurs only once a month and is very rarely seen. The famous phrase “once in a blue moon” is also derived from the monthly blue moon. The next monthly blue moon is expected to be seen on 31st May 2026.
