No. A blue moon happens when there is a second full moon. A solar eclipse happens when there is a new moon and it is right between the sun and the earth. But it is possible to have a blue moon and a lunar eclipse at the same time.
A blue moon is a full moon that is not timed to the regular monthly pattern. Most years have twelve full moons which occur approximately monthly, but in addition to those twelve full lunar cycles, each calendar year contains an excess of roughly eleven days. The extra days accumulate, so that every two or three years (on average about every 2.7154 years) there is an extra full moon. The extra moon is called a "blue moon."
At new moon, the Moon is right next to the Sun - that is, you see it in the same direction, more or less. At new moon, the Moon rises together with the Sun.
It is most difficult during the New Moon as there is no moonlight.
Yes. A new moon appears as if there is no moon in the sky, but it is actually there.It is the same as the new moon is not visible (too close to the Sun). It is visible later when followed by the Moon's first visible crescentWhen the Sun and Moon are aligned on the same side of the Earth the Moon is "new", and the side of the Moon visible from Earth is not illuminated by the Sun.As the Moon waxes (the amount of illuminated surface as seen from Earth is increasing), the lunar phases progress from new moon, crescent moon, first-quarter moon, gibbous moon and full moon phases, before returning through the gibbous moon, last-quarter (or last quarter) moon, crescent moon and new moon phases.The terms old moon and new moon are interchangeable, although new moon is more common.

1990.
New Blue Moon was created in 1990.
There are 2 uses of the term 'Blue Moon' - Because the lunar cycle is 28 days and the year has 365 days it works out that there are 13 new moons in a year. The year is divided into 4 seasons - Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, each of which would have 3 new moons (which are referred to as the Early Spring Moon, Mid-Spring Moon, Late Spring Moon and so on for the other 3 seasons) and wherever the extra 13th new moon falls it is given the name Blue Moon and this term is used to describe the 3rd new moon out of the 4 in the season. It would look exactly the same as the other 12. The other use of the term Blue Moon is when certain atmospheric conditions, usually smoke at high altitude, gives the Moon the appearance of a slightly blue tint.
A blue moon is when a full or new moon occurs twice in a month.
Green! So wear something green on New Year's Eve for good luck in the next year!
The term "Blue Moon" refers to the second full moon in any single month, so.. if you have a full moon on the 1st, 2nd or 3rd (in months with 31 days) you will have a "blue moon" 28 days later. The event itself is a rarity, thus the phase "once in a blue moon". Blue moons happen approximately every 2.5 years. The last New Year's Eve blue moon was in 1990. The next will be in 2028. Fortunately for New Year's Eve revelers, full moons are also known for stirring up emotions and sparking wild revelry. So be sure to look up and raise your glass as you ring in 2010.
The full moon in December 2009 was on December 2nd.
Yes. In fact, it is the first time in almost 20 years that there is going to be a blue moon on New Years Eve. It wont happen again until 2028. I found this info out in the national geographic website.
Chinese New Year starts with the new moon of the first day of the new year. It then ends 15 days later, with the full moon!
the new moon is full moon
