The second full moon in any calendar month is NOT a blue moon.Because last week, every fool in every bar heard every talking head on every TV station repeat S & T's oopsie, every one of those fools will get it wrong. Of course, the hard part is proving that you're right (and that they are wrong).
According to NASA, that phrase is believed to have originated in 1883 after the eruption of Indonesia's Mount Krakatoa. The volcano put so much dust in the atmosphere that the moon actually looked blue in color. The event was deemed so unusual the phrase once in a blue moon was coined.I could give you a link, but you need to learn to Google, so look it up yourself. Hint: search on "blue moon" + nasa. When you get your 184,000 hits, pick one of the first ones that has nasa.gov in the link.
