APOD: 2023 September 5 – Blue Supermoon Beyond Syracuse

A different astronomy and space science related image is featured each day, along with a brief explanation.

The blue supermoon!

For those who may not have seen recent news stories: you get a blue moon whenever there are 2 full moons in the same month. Coincidentally, the moon was at its closest point last night (because the Earth's orbit is elliptical). This won't happen again until 2037. It's not a big deal astronomy-wise, but still a fun observation to make!

I’m gonna sue the #BlueSuperMoon for false advertising! 😠

Once I realized the forecast was for a clear night, I safeguarded time to set up the spotting scope and have my digiscope ready for my phone. Seeing Saturn nearby was a bonus, though my photos of the ringed planet make it look more like a UFO

A rare blue supermoon — the closest full moon of the year — dazzled stargazers Wednesday night. Saturn joined the celestial spectacle, visible alongside the moon, at least where skies were clear.
