You Need to See the Only Blue Moon of 2023 This Week

The month of August ends on a bright note: the first and only Blue Moon of the year will appear on the night of Wednesday, August 30.

The Moon’s phases are intrinsic to the human experience. It has a 29.53-day cycle, which creates or coincides with other patterns like the tides, human menstrual cycle, and the calendar months. Naming, counting, and watching Full Moons is an ancient practice that carries into today.

If you don’t have clear skies forecasted for Wednesday, don’t worry. “The Moon will appear full for 3 days around the peak of the full Moon, from Tuesday night to Friday morning,” NASA officials wrote on Thursday.

‘Ahsoka’ Is a Star Wars Show For Everyone — And No One

Who is Ahsoka actually for? It’s a question that’s plagued the newest Lucasfilm series from its inception. While it’s technically a spinoff of The Mandalorian, it’s also a clever way of bringing showrunner Dave Filoni’s most beloved animated characters into live-action. In addition to Ahsoka Tano (who was first introduced in Star Wars: The Clone Wars), Ahsoka will also bring characters from Star Wars: Rebels into the fold. As exciting and unprecedented as that is, it’s always felt like a misstep — not just for hardcore Rebels lovers, but for the fans who’ve never seen a single episode of the animated series.
