Selenophiles take note. Let us first define our terms.
→ Super moon: when the moon is at perigee and about 14% brighter than usual. → Blue moon: the second full moon in a calendar month. → Blood moon: the moment during a lunar eclipse when the moon, in the Earth’s shadow, takes on a reddish tint.
Now, I know what you’re saying: “William, I’m a busy person。 I don’t have time to wait, neck craned, for each of these events to occur separately。Also, I like to use Japanese-style periods as they look like tiny moons。" Well, you’re in luck! (and no need for thanks as I had nothing to do with it), for on Wednesday, we’ll have a “super blue blood moon” - yes, the full trifecta at once! Even if you cannot read Japanese, the link has an informative video, and the charts will tell you what is happening, when (in North America, they’ll have to get up early; here, we can view it just before nighty-night time), and where (hint: sky). The last time this trifecta happened was 1866.
Bad news: Weather is forecast to be cloudy. Cross your fingers that we may see the super blue blood moon, selenophilic Kumamotoites! - William
