The month of August is going to be a special lunar month as this month will be a supermoon as the moon is closest to the Earth.
But along with this, there will also be a supermoon of August, a blue moon.
When the moon is closest to Earth, it appears bigger and brighter than usual and is called a supermoon.
Super Blue Moon will be seen all over the world including Pakistan on August 19.
It should be noted that the blue moon does not mean that the color of the moon will turn blue, but this name is a term.
The reason for using the term blue moon is also quite interesting.
A volcanic eruption in the 19th century caused a strange change in the color of the sky, causing the full moon to appear blue, known as the Blue Moon.
There are 2 types of blue moon, one is seasonal blue moon and the other is monthly blue moon.
A seasonal blue moon is the third of 4 full moons in a season, and a similar blue moon will appear on the horizon on August 19.
The second visible fourteenth moon in an English month is called the Monthly Blue Moon.
The moon that will rise in the sky on August 19 will be at a distance of 226,000 miles from the earth, which will appear 14% larger and 30% brighter than usual.
This month’s seasonal Super Blue Moon is also special because the next such sighting will have to wait until 2037.
However, the sighting of the seasonal blue moon will be quite soon.
It should be noted that the supermoon will shine in the sky for 4 consecutive months in August, September, October and November 2024.
