(加西網綜合)疫情還沒有過去,美國黑人之死使得6月以來全球再次進入混亂模式,全球各地的抗議游行中夾雜著暴力示威、打砸搶燒,讓這個地球變得更加不美好。抬眼看看天空,暫時忘記這些不愉快吧!根據老農夫年鑒,本周加拿大居民將有望看到“草莓月”(Strawberry Moon)
根據北美洲的氣象界葵花寶典老農夫年鑒介紹,本周伍6月5日,加拿大上空將可以看到草莓圓月。不過別想多了,這草莓月只是壹種叫法,並不是看起來月亮會變得像草莓,只是因為在北美洲這個時間剛好是大部分草莓成熟的時間。
這壹天文現象在歐洲被稱作玫瑰月(Full Rose Moon)或是蜜月(Honey Moon)
這個草莓的來歷,是指6月的第壹次滿月通常與北美洲原住民阿岡昆部落的壹年中收獲的第壹批草莓有關。
Are you a Selenophile (A person who loves the moon and its beauty)? Then, If you are one of them, You should be happy just like me!!! 📚 Astronomy Fact Alert 101 ✨ ⭕ Don't Miss Out The Strawberry Moon Eclipse On June 5, 2020 📍 The crest of the Moon's full phase happens on June 5, 2020, at 19:12 UTC. Skywatchers around the world will have to catch a glimpse of the almost-full Moon on the evenings before and after the peak. 📍 At that night the Full Moon will be close to the red supergiant star Antares, brightest star in the constellation Scorpius the Scorpion. 📍 This year, the night of the Strawberry Moon will also see a penumbral lunar eclipse take place. 📍 During the maximum phase of the eclipse, space observers in Europe, Asia, Australia and Africa may see the Moon's surface turn slightly darker than usual. 📍 The Penumbral Eclipse begins on June 5, at 17:45 UTC. Maximum Eclipse at 19:25 UTC. The Eclipse ends at 21:04 UTC. 📍 It's a Full Moon meaning the Earth lies between the Sun and the Moon so the complete surface of the Moon is visible. 📍 Each month's Full Moon has a name and a meaning, dating back to Native Americans. June's full Moon is called the Strawberry Moon because the short season during which strawberries can be harvested happens in June. However, strawberries aren't native in Europe. There, June's Ful Moon is called the "Rose Moon." © National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) #strawberrymoon #selenophile #moonlovers #luna #nasa

不過根據天文觀測時間,這壹圓月的最佳時間將在太平洋時間下午3點左右出現,因此大溫的居民恐怕看不到最峰值時的圓月,不過買點草莓,在夜晚坐下來賞月倒是壹個不錯的主意。
