There’s a rare ‘blue moon’ on Friday - August 31, 2012
A blue moon occurs when there’s a second full moon in one calendar month. It won’t happen again until July 2015. The full moon cycle is 29.5 days so a blue moon is uncommon and has come to mean something rare. The moon actually won’t be colored blue.
