    Also later in the month, look out for the first Supermoon, in a sequence of 4 this year. This Supermoon will also be a seasonal Blue Moon, which occurs every 2-3 years.

    Find out what a Blue Moon is, when to view it and why a reclining garden chair could be important this month. Tune in to Sky Watch to open up the wonder of Petersfield's night skies for magical star-gazing from your doorstep in Sky Watch.

    Written by Petersphere resident, astronomical expert and amateur astronomer Geoff Burt, every month Shine Radio presents a Sky Watch of our unique dark skies.
