Mærk magien ved den sjældne Super Blå Måne, der lyser nattehimlen op - det er en oplevelse, du ikke vil gå glip af!
Måneskinnet danser over nattehimlen, og nu er det tid til at lytte godt efter - august byder på en sjælden himmelsk fest med den såkaldte Super Blå Måne. Mens Supermåner forstår man, når månen er tættere på jorden og ser større og lysere ud, så tilsættes "blå måned" til mixet når det drejer sig om en ekstra fuldmåne i en måned, noget der kun sker hvert par år. Den seneste i rækken er i aften, og hvis du har en god udsigt, vil du ikke blive skuffet! Vil du se den? Så find hinanden, lede op til et højt sted og gør dig klar til at blive blæst bagover!
Selv hvis du ikke er i stand til at observere månen i aften, vil det stadig være værd at følge med, da den næste Super Blå Måne først vil vise sig i 2032. Det er en sjælden begivenhed, der hvor himmellegemet, der er både stort, strålende og farverigt (når den er synlig i kort tid), gør hvert kig op på nattehimlen til en stor oplevelse. Og netop som en chasefisk giver jagten på denne særlige måne endnu mere spænding.
Denne Super Blå Måne har også en magisk måde at binde naturens fænomen til kulturens visdom på. For sky-gazers og astronomi-entusiaster vil det være muligt at observere hvordan supermånen hæver sig majestætisk over horisonten, og måske vil den også vise sig nær Saturn, så hvis du ejer et teleskop, er det nu tid til at tage det frem! Hvem ved, hvor mange stjerner du kan se?
Selvfølgelig skal vi ikke glemme det teknologiske aspekt af denne måneobsession! For de der ikke kan komme ud, tilbyder den virtuelle teleskopprojekt et gratis livestreaming, så folk kan nyde udsigten fra deres eget hjem. Hvem har brug for at klæde sig på for den kolde nat, når man kan beholde sin dyne og stadig være vidne til et ægte naturvidunder!
