that is sweet! but everyone already gets all crazy on full moons so two might not help:) 2018 ought to be pretty crazy though what with the TWO blue moons in january and march, that should be interesting...

Madison Schnell said...

I think the blue moon is really interesting. I never knew that a full moon can occur 2 times in a month, and I would really like to see it. But I wonder why they call it a 'blue' moon, does it look blue? Or does blue mean something else? I hope to see a blue moon and I hope to find out more about why the call it a 'blue' moon.

Hmm...I heard that in 2018 we have two full moons in January, and in March. People will be going crazy about the end of the world stuff.

That is so cool. I never thought 2 new moons could actually happen during the same month, I hope the blue moon happens soon, cause I would love to see that occur. And Madison, i'm wondering the same thing, why DO they call it a blue moon, it has nothing to do with 2 moons ?

I think the blue moon is really cool. I never really knew that a full moon can occur 2 times in one month, and I would really like to see it if I ever got th chance.

I am speechless. This is cool, but it happens often, so it's not as cool as it sounds. But twice in a blue moon is cool. the next time it will be like that. Ironicly, the last 2 blue moons was in 1999, the year before the millunium.

anonymous said...

Wow that is really intersting.i never knew that a full moon can happen 2 times in a month. It would be really cool to see it some time and i agree with you madison why do they call it a blue moon.

anonymous said...

Two full moons in a month is a blue moon: The blue moon doesn't happen every month, onlyn moths with 31 days. I think that this is very interesting. I have never herd this term before, well until now.

Anonymous said...

That's kind of cool. Two full moons in a month?? I like watching the moon. In the morning when I go to school I can see a lot of stars and most of the time, I can see the moon. I don't think I have seen two full moons in a month yet though.

I know that would be a very cool experience. I also never knew that a full moon could occur 2 times in a month :)

The newer definition of a blue moon is two full moons in 1 calender month (29.5 days)

These facts are amzing i never knew what a blue moon was until the amazing MRS.MARTZ told me. Its two full moon's in one month it usually takes about a month to complete the moon cycle. I'm just blown away by how this happens. Also i wonder why they call it a blue moon ?

Buis,Dylan said...

thats so cool i never knew that a full moon could happen twice in a month.i also wonder why they call it a blue moon?wowwwwwww 15 blue moons in 20 yearsss wowzers!!I havent seen two full moons in a month because i never look at the moon!!!I wonder why they call it a blue moon because its not blue i think..

Ryan Weber said...

I like Dylans comment because he said he never looked at the moon . Wow how did he do the moon phase project then ?

anonymous said...

I think Blue moons are reraly cool. If you think about it there are only a couple. If any in the year. In 20 years there will be 15 new moons between that time that is What if think About the Blue Moon.

I thoght it was cool that its called a blue moon but it not that blue at all. But why can't be called a green moon or purple moon green moon would showthat our earth is going green. Blues cool to. I can't wait to see a blue moon one night.

Gillian said...

I agree with Madison S. why blue why why why! Befor I new that people go crazy during a full moon.

anonymous said...
