Blue Moon Tonight: May’s Second Full Moon bluemoon fullmoon skywatching spacenews moon [NZ0IxclIW58]
Rare Blue Micromoon Peaks Tonight Tonight and early Sunday morning we have a rare Blue Moon — the second full moon in May. This one is also a Micromoon, occurring when the Moon is at its farthest point from Earth, making it the smallest full moon of 2026. It reaches peak illumination at 4:45 a.m. Eastern. The difference in size is subtle, but it’s still a beautiful sight if you’re up early or catching moonrise tonight.
