Occurrence of Blue Moons Rare But Possible, Report 'Miss Air Wave' , , its i J "Miss Air Wave" is the proud title held by comely Frances Doyle, above, storekeeper, 2c stationed at Floyd Bennett Field, New York. She won it from 274 other WAVES in con test aunng celebration WAVES" second By J. HUGH PRUETT Astronomer, Genaral Extension Division, University of Oregon "Once in a blue moon" is an expression occasionally used. It seems to mean "almost never" or even "not at all." A prom inent eastern astronomer re cently remarked that he did not believe a blue moon could occur since there are no known me teorological or optical reasons for it. Smoky air will Droduce a red moon. This is easily ex plained on me principle tnat the smoke scatters the shorter blue and violet waves of light more than the red, thus allowing the rea part ot tne original white to reacn us in greater abundance. Another eastern writer said the term doubtless comes from the use of the word to indicate an occasional 13th fulf moon in a year. About once in three years. 13 instead of 12 full moons occur. In olden times each full moon was given a name, such as Lenten moon, egg moon, har vest moon, hunter's moon, etc. The extra one, which might oc cur any month, was termed blue moon. But every time a scientist writes that a moon that appears blue cannot occur, a few laymen come back with strong, refuta tions. Four such claims of ac tual observations have been pub lished in the magazine Sky and Telescope the past five years. One said that the half moon in me south had a decided bluish tinge 20 minutes before sunset and that its reflection in a quiet pond was even bluer. Another described his moon as greenish blue. Due to Disorders The present writer considered blue moons likely due to con stitutional disorders of the ob servers until he and several oth ers witnessed this very phenom enon shortly after sunset nn July 28. 1944. The half moon in the sbuth was thinly veiled with gorgeous red cirrus clouds. At first it was thought that the moon might simply be blue by contrast, but when a little later it floated out into very clear sky, it was still strikinelv blue. Not of course indigo .blue, but such a tint as mignt result from a coating of clear lacauer into which a fair amount of blue col oring matter had previously been mixed. The color was strikingly evi dent and required no Imagi nation. Our blue moon finally turned into yellow as darkness came on. No Explanation No explanation is offered since none is supposed to be pos sible. A blue moon may be 'a sight of a. lifetime or even rarer but normal eyes do some times observe it. A search through the indices of the Month ly Weather Review from 1898 to 1942 revealed not a single ref erence to this phenomenon. Similar luck was encountered In a "once over" of practically all the meteorology and astronomy books at the University of Ore gon library. The writer is 'anxious' to gel accounts of blue moons observed by others at any time in the past. Address him at 1832 Longvicw Avenue, Eugene, Oregon. Classified Ads Bring Results. Mr. iiih) Mm. O.
