A blue supermoon will rise tonight, August 30. A somewhat rare occurrence, the next blue supermoon won't appear until 2037. Similar to Strawberry Moons and Pink Moons, a Blue Moon isn't named for its color. Instead, as the phrase "once in a blue moon" suggests, it's all about timing. Blue Moons are less common: Only one in about 33 moons qualifies.

The most recent blue moon, for example, occurred in October 2020. The August 30 super blue moon will reach its peak at 9:36 p.m. What is a full moon, supermoon and blue moon? Supermoons occur when the moon is near or at its closest point to Earth (or, in scientific terms, its perigee) while also appearing full. Not all blue moons are supermoons, which makes the August 30 full moon even more exceptional.
