The full moon that rose last night, Wednesday, was a special one, the unification of a supermoon and a Blue Moon, a ‘Super Blue Moon’.
The moon didn’t appear particularly blue, however.
The term has nothing to do with colour, instead referring to either two moons occurring in the same calendar month (as in this case), or the third full moon in a season that has four full moons.
A supermoon refers to a full moon when the moon is closer to Earth in its orbit, resulting in a slightly larger and brighter appearance.
