Blue Supermoon: What You Need To Know About Rare Lunar Event
There's an out-of-this-world lunar event set to begin this week. From Monday, Aug. 19, through Wednesday, Aug. 21, the moon will appear bigger and brighter in the night sky than normal. It's called the supermoon. It's the first one of the year, but that's not why this one is special. A supermoon occurs when the moon is full and closest to Earth in its orbit, according to NASA. That closeness makes the rocky satellite appear 15 percent bigger and 30 percent brighter. What makes August's supermoon so unique is that it's a blue moon. No, the light of the moon won't change co…

Stargazers can expect excellent views of Jupiter the entire night of Monday, Sept. 26 when the giant planet reaches opposition, NASA said. From the viewpoint of Earth’s surface, opposition happens when an astronomical object rises in the east as the Sun sets in the west, placing the object and the Sun on opposite sides of Earth. Jupiter’s opposi…

Super Blue Blood Moon Will Be Something We Haven't Seen Since 1866
The weather should not interfere with sky gazers across the tristate area -- and much of the United States -- viewing a celestial event that has not happened in more than 150 years, according to AccuWeather.com. North America will be treated to a blue moon, supermoon and a lunar eclipse all at once during the early morning hours of Wednesday, creating a rare trifecta known as Super Blue Blood Moon. Area residents should be treated to good viewing conditions with the timing of the event scheduled for 6:48 a.m. EST, when a partial eclipse starts and should be viewable in this region. "T…
