A look at the rare "Blue Moon"  There are two definitions of a Blue Moon in astronomy; both are a type of full moon.  The two definitions are:

Blue Moon = The third full Moon in an astronomical season with 4 full Moons (versus the normal 3)

Blue Moon = The second full Moon in a month with two full Moons.

This time, it was the second definition.

The photos were taken at The Cincinnati Observatory Center.
