May's Flower Moon Appears Micromoon-Sized, Blue Moon Follows

May’s Flower Moon will be a micromoon—nearly 250,000 miles away—so it’ll look smaller and dimmer than average, with 100% illumination at 1:24 p.m. ET on May 1 and visible after sunset around the world; it may appear orange near the horizon due to Rayleigh scattering. The month’s second full Moon, on May 31, is a Blue Moon and will also be a micromoon, making May 2026 a rare two-full-moon month; Blue Moons occur in about 6% of full Moons; binoculars or a telescope can help spot craters and landmarks.

Later in May, a second full moon—the blue moon—will occur on May 31, though it will appear smaller (a micromoon) because it’s farther from Earth. The piece also lists all 2026 full moons and notes the cultural and astronomical context behind these Moon-name traditions.
