Was Last Night’s Moon Blue for You?
Universe Today | Nancy Atkinson | 2012 Sept 01
... Our readers sent in their Blue Moon images from last night, and some used a little image editing magic to make the Moon appear blue, but most are just gorgeous images of our closest neighbor and constant companion in space ...
