  5. No, I did not know what a blue moon was before I red the article. I learned that there are two types of blue moons. One of them is the second full moon in one month, and the other type of blue moon is the third of four full moons in between the season change.

  10. A blue moon is an ordinary full moon, it was actually a bit extraordinary—a blue moon There are in fact two definitions for a blue moon. According to the more recent definition, a blue moon is the second full moon in a calendar month. For a blue moon to occur, the first of the full moons must appear at or near the beginning of the month so that the second will fall within the same month (the average span between two moons is 29.5 days)

    What i learned about a blue moon is thThe older definition, which is recorded in early issues of the Maine Farmer's Almanac, states that the blue moon is the third full moon in a season that has four full moons.
