This is the one for January 1, 2010. It wasn't available until about 1 1/2 hours ago... Both the two we posted earlier are similar in a way, and beautiful in every way. 2010 January 1 apod.nasa.gov Not a Blue Moon Credit & Copyright: Stefano De Rosa Explanation: This bright Full Moon was captured on December 2nd, shining above a church overlooking the River Po, in Turin, Italy, It was the first Full Moon in December. Shining on celebrations of New Year's Eve, last night's Full Moon was the second Full Moon of December and so fits the modern definition of a Blue Moon - the second Full Moon in a month. Because the lunar cycle, Full Moon to Full Moon, spans 29.5 days, Blue Moons tend to occur in some month about every 2.5 years. Shining in the glare just above and right of December's first Full Moon is the Pleiades star cluster.
