Get out your telescopes, and let the kiddos stay up a little later than normal because according to NASA, this particular lunar event won't happen again until 2037.
I don't know how to say this, but a "blue moon" is not really blue. Hey, I didn't know either. Weather permitting, you will be able to see what is called a "seasonal blue moon" tonight.
Honestly, the color of this blue moon you will see is sort of a pale orange...
Don't miss a rare occurance the second full moon of the month called a blue moon it will take place Friday night August 31st, if you miss it you won't see it again until July 2015. So get your camera's, smart phones ready to take some cool pictures of the moon this Friday night!
