What is Blue Supermoon?

New Moon, Full Moon, Super Moon, and Blue Moon are visible due to astronomical events occurring in space. The blue moon that appears every 2 or 3 years is slightly larger in size and its color also looks different. When two full moons appear in a month, then the second full moon is considered a Blue Moon.

The last time Blue Moon was seen was in 2018. Understand in Assamese language, if there are more than two full moons in a single month, then this year will be called Moon Year. According to NASA, the moon appears brighter than normal days and such a phenomenon occurs only when the moon is full and its orbit is closest to Earth.

How often does a Blue Moon happen?

Generally, Blue Moon comes only every two or three years. 2018 had two Blue Moons in one year and a lunar eclipse just two months apart. The next time we will see two Blue Moons in a year will be in 2037.
