Blue Moon
One month typically only has one full moon. The rarity of a second full moon of the month is where you get the phrase “once in a blue moon”.
According to Science Centre Singapore, this astronomical event can be witnessed in Singapore this evening, starting with a partial eclipse at 7:48PM. So have your dinner outside and admire this possibly-once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon.
