"Rare Blue Supermoon: A Spectacular Celestial Event to Witness This Week"

TL;DR Summary
A rare blue "supermoon," the biggest and brightest moon of the year, will be visible on the night of August 30. The supermoon will appear slightly larger, about 7% bigger, and will coincide with the bright presence of Saturn in the constellation Aquarius. Skygazers in the Southern Hemisphere will be able to see Saturn below the moon. A supermoon occurs when a full moon is closest to Earth in its orbit, while a blue moon is when a full moon is seen twice in a single month. Blue moons occur once every two to three years.
