Blue Moon?
 
Is there actually a blue moon tonight?

I saw a friend on FB mention it earlier, but she lives in Thailand, and now I've heard it mentioned a few times in BB? :conf:

A 'Blue Moon' will appear in the night sky over Britain tonight.

The term refers to the second full moon in a single calendar month. It is only the third Blue Moon in more than two years and the next chance to see one will be in 2015.

However, and despite its name, it is not expected to be blue in colour.

According to Nasa: "Most Blue Moons look pale grey and white, indistinguishable from any other Moon you've ever seen. Squeezing a second full Moon into a calendar month doesn't change the physical properties of the Moon itself, so its colour remains the same."
I don't get it :suspect:
