🌕 May’s Blue Moon is here!
Catch the second Full Moon of May shining bright this weekend. Peak illumination happens tonight, making this a skywatching moment you won’t want to miss.
Despite its name, the Moon won’t actually look blue! 💙 A “Blue Moon” is the name for the second full moon in a single month — something that doesn’t happen very often.
🌑 This Blue Moon is also a “Micromoon,” meaning the Moon is at its farthest point from Earth. Because of that, it may look a little smaller and dimmer than a normal full moon.
✨ Head outside after sunset, find a good view of the sky, and enjoy the glow!
It’s FOSS Fun Friday!
The sun is out, so take learning outside! ☀️ This activity gets students moving with a game of catch while investigating the forces at work when throwing and catching a ball. Talk about balanced and unbalanced forces while having fun at the park or playground! ⚾🌿
