A rare spectacle began Sunday night as an August supermoon blue moon rose into the sky.
The first of 2024’s four consecutive supermoons, the blue moon – also known as the Sturgeon Moon – was expected to reach peak illumination on Monday and shine brightly through Wednesday.
According to NASA, 100% of the moon’s nearside will be illuminated on Monday, and 99% will be illuminated on Tuesday.
