There will be a full moon this Halloween that will be visible for most time zones on Earth, according to SPACE.com. This hasn’t happened since 1944, according to the Farmers’ Almanac and it isn’t expected to happen again until 2039.
Moreover, the full moon is also going to be a “blue moon.”
For more on this awesome Halloween night, minus the very scary COVID-19 issues we’re dealing with here on Earth, go to Space.com.
It’s a designation for the second full moon to occur in a single calendar month. Blue moons are relatively rare as well, occurring on average just once every 2.5 years or so. We last saw one in March 2018. The next one is in August 2023.
Watch it live on Virtual Telescope website here, and on YouTube.
