TL;DR Summary

The rare Super Blue Moon, one of the biggest and brightest moons of the year, will rise on August 30. This Blue Moon, which is also a "supermoon," will be visible in the night sky. However, if conditions are poor for moonwatching in your area, you can watch a free livestream of the event hosted by the Virtual Telescope Project. The Super Blue Moon occurs when there are two full moons in a calendar month and the moon is closer to Earth, making it appear larger and brighter. The next Super Blue Moon won't occur until 2037.
