SkyWatch Friday

Posted by Lorac Thursday 23 September 2010

A harvest moon last night. Not since 1991 has a full moon occurred on the same night as the fall equinox, and it won't happen again until 2029.

  1. OH, how cool! I knew it was a full moon but I didn't realize it was so rare to occur on the equinox. How nice you took a photo of it.

     
  2. Fabulous photos. I can't believe I missed the full moon on the equinox. One of these days I'll really have to wake up. Thanks for posting your photos, and thanks for visiting my blog.

  4. I saw the moon last night and wondered if it's a full moon or new moon. It looks mystifying and I can't help but to look at it once in a while. You captured it nicely.
