It only happens once in a blue moon...
On Wednesday, August 30th, 2023, a blue moon will appear over Boston at 9:35pm. This isn't just any blue moon; it's a 'monthly blue moon', indicating it's the second full moon in a month with two full moons. This contrasts with the 'seasonal blue moon', which is the third full moon in an astronomical season with four full moons. The moon rises in the east, so set your sights there. If you're hoping to snap a memorable photo, choose a location facing east with an eye-catching foreground. Two particularly notable spots to watch a Boston moonrise are North Point Park in Cambridge and the BU Bridge on the Boston/Cambridge line.
