This Friday in This Blog's History I bring back to you the misconception of a Blue Moon. Every once in awhile you hear about a Blue Moon and when you do, there are usually many misconceptions floating about. First of all, the Moon, although it can appear slightly bluish at times, is not blue. Atmospheric conditions can, on occasion, make the Moon appear slightly bluish. However, this is very rare and has nothing to do with the Blue Moon you hear about in the media. A Blue Moon is simply the the second full Moon in a calendar month. That's it!
