The second full moon will occur on May 31 at 4:45 a.m. ET. This event is particularly significant as both full moons are classified as micromoons.

Micromoons appear smaller and less bright than regular full moons. A full moon happens approximately every 29.5 days.

The Flower Moon is named for the spring flowers that bloom in May. It offers an excellent opportunity for stargazing and astrophotography.

When the Flower Moon rises low on the horizon, it may appear orange or red due to atmospheric scattering. Additionally, a lunar halo—a ring around the moon—can form due to ice crystals in the atmosphere.

The Flower Moon will be visible past midnight into the early hours of Saturday morning. Its peak brightness occurs at 1:23 p.m. ET.

The Blue Moon reaches its peak brightness later in the month. It is an exciting event for astronomy enthusiasts.

This month promises to be memorable for those interested in lunar events. However, details about viewing conditions may vary.
