You may have heard of the idiom 'once in a blue moon' to describe an event that doesn't happen often. But can the Moon really be blue? Our closest neighbour in this vast galaxy, the Moon, orbits the Earth like a natural satellite. Unlike many of the other planets in our Solar System, ours only has the one moon. If you flew to it, you would land on grey rocks. This is because the lunar surface is made from mostly magnesium, iron and other minerals of that colour. But, if you're lucky to have clear skies under the curtain of night, you may be able to admire its luminosity. You might even see that it seems to change shape and hue.您可能听说过“once in a blue Moon”这个成语，用来描述不经常发生的事件。 但月亮真的可以是蓝色的吗？ 在这个广阔的星系中，我们最近的邻居是月球，它像一颗天然卫星一样围绕地球运行。 与太阳系中的许多其他行星不同，我们的行星只有一颗卫星。 如果你飞过去，你会降落在灰色的岩石上。 这是因为月球表面主要由镁、铁和其他该颜色的矿物质组成。 但是，如果您幸运地在夜幕下拥有晴朗的天空，您也许可以欣赏到它的光度。 您甚至可能会看到它的形状和色调似乎发生了变化。It's important to understand that the Moon reflects light from the Sun as it orbits the Earth, and that light bounces back to the Earth. The position of the Moon, Sun and the Earth determines how much of the Moon we see. The new Moon appears almost invisible in the sky as it is in total darkness. This is the opposite to the full Moon which is completely lit up. There are eight different phases to the lunar cycle between a full Moon and a new Moon, each lasting around 28 days. In fact, the word 'month' takes its root from 'Moon' because it was almost equal to the lunar phases.重要的是要了解，月球绕地球运行时会反射来自太阳的光，然后光会反射回地球。 月球、太阳和地球的位置决定了我们能看到月球的面积。 新月在天空中几乎看不见，因为它处于完全黑暗的环境中。 这与完全照亮的满月相反。 满月和新月之间的月球周期有八个不同的阶段，每个阶段持续约 28 天。 事实上，“月”这个词的根源是“Moon”，因为它几乎等于月相。The other phases include the crescent, quarter and gibbous phase. Crescent originates from the Latin verb 'crescere', meaning 'to increase', and so it is the phase just before and after a new Moon as it takes a concave shape. The quarter will show half of the Moon. 'Gibbous' gets its root from the Latin term 'gibbus' which applied to the Moon's convex shape. These shapes are determined by the adjectives 'waning', to get smaller, and 'waxing', to get bigger.其他阶段包括新月期、四分之一期和凸月期。 新月起源于拉丁语动词“crescere”，意思是“增加”，因此它是新月前后的阶段，因为它呈凹形。 该四分之一将显示月球的一半。 “Gibbous”一词源自拉丁语“gibbus”，指的是月球的凸面形状。 这些形状由形容词“逐渐变小”和“逐渐变大”来决定。So now you know how we've named the shapes, what about those mesmerising colours? The light waves that reach our eyes can vary due to the Moon's position on the horizon and pollution. This is known as Rayleigh scattering. When the Moon is low, light travels through the densest part of the atmosphere and shorter waves of blue scatter away. This leaves only the red and orange light waves to reach us. A warmer atmosphere, as well as smoke from wildfire, may increase the scattering effect as well, making the Moon appear less dull in spring and summer. This is why it's more likely for you to look up and see a pink Moon in April, a golden Moon in May and July, and even a red coloured Moon in the month of June.现在您知道我们如何命名这些形状了，那么那些迷人的颜色呢？ 由于月球在地平线上的位置和污染，到达我们眼睛的光波可能会有所不同。 这称为瑞利散射。 当月亮较低时，光线穿过大气层最密集的部分，较短的蓝色波会散射开来。 这样就只剩下红色和橙色光波到达我们这里了。 温暖的大气层以及野火产生的烟雾也可能会增加散射效果，使月球在春季和夏季显得不那么暗淡。 这就是为什么您更有可能在四月抬头看到粉红色的月亮，在五月和七月看到金色的月亮，甚至在六月看到红色的月亮。

As the Gibbous Moon grows larger, you can see new details coming into view as the day-night line progresses across the lunar surface each night. Support this podcast: https://www.deltapublicmedia.org/donate/

The search for ‘a better life’ is the classic motivation for immigrants arriving in a new country and so often we hear about the success stories. But author Moreno Giovannoni wanted to tell the more overlooked migrant stories for his latest novel, The Immigrants – drawing on his family’s own experiences in Australia. Giovannoni shares his approach to writing, his thoughts on translating, as well as past and future projects. 00:00 Welcome04:47 Writing tip: Creative Mottos07:46 WIN!: The Watervale Ladies’ Writing and Firefighting Society by Mette Menzies10:20 Word of the week: ‘Gibbous’11:46 Writer in residence: Moreno Giovannoni12:20 What his new book The Immigrants is about16:30 Fiction versus the real life inspirations20:10 Bringing his style to the Australian setting23:25 The research and notetaking26:20 Structuring the book29:31 Fitting the seven key events into the story31:35 The publishing journey33:22 The writing process and challenges34:56 A typical writing day37:40 Balancing writing and translating41:33 Publicising the book43:33 Future writing plans and pure fiction50:32 Moreno Giovannoni’s writing tip52:48 Final thoughts Read the show notes Connect with Valerie and listeners in the podcast community on Facebook Visit WritersCentre.com.au | ValerieKhoo.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for October 3, 2025 is: gibbous • JIB-us • adjective Gibbous is most often used to describe the moon or a planet when it is seen with more than half but not all of the apparent disk illuminated. // The waxing gibbous moon provided the perfect lighting for a night of spooky storytelling around the campfire. See the entry > Examples: “At 3:30 a.m. the gibbous moon is high in the south and Perseus is nearly overhead. Set up a comfortable lawn chair facing away from any bright lights, ideally looking toward the northeast with the moon to your back. Have insect repellent handy along with hot chocolate, tea or coffee and enjoy the show.” — Tim Hunter, The Arizona Daily Star, 7 Aug. 2025 Did you know? The adjective gibbous has its origins in the Latin noun gibbus, meaning “hump.” It was adopted into Middle English to describe rounded, convex things. While it has been used to describe the rounded body parts of humans and animals (such as the back of a camel) and to describe the shape of certain flowers (such as snapdragons), the term is most often used to describe the moon: a gibbous moon is one that is between half full and full.

A reflective flute, the slow moving, the low bass rattles, the echoes, repeating, the slow draw of a bow over a cello. A time of great potential.

All this week, the phase of the moon grows larger and brighter as it moves from first quarter toward full. We call this period the “waxing gibbous moon” as the oval shape becomes wider and more rounded.

Gibbous

Alice says that was a very interesting reading by me the other morning. She says she's never heard the story of the Prodigal Son told in that way before.I'm there, “You mean all the different voices?”She goes, “The voices, yes – but also the sound effects.”I'm there, “I wanted to, you know, put a bit of welly into it for the audience. I was a bit of a showman in my rugby days. I think what we're finding out is that it's a quality that never really leaves you,” and I give her a big, leathery wink.... Hosted on Acast.

Gibbous to Full Virgo

The Moon slides along one of the horns of Taurus tonight. At nightfall, the bull's bright eye, the star Aldebaran, is to the lower right of the Moon. And the tip of the horn, El Nath, is closer to the left or lower left of the Moon. By the time they set, in the wee hours of the morning, El Nath will stand close above the Moon. The Moon is in its “waxing gibbous” phase. “Gibbous” means the Sun is lighting up more than half of the lunar hemisphere that faces our way. “Waxing” means that more of that half is being lit up every night. The Moon will keep getting “fatter” until it's full, a week from today. “Gibbous” comes from a Latin word that means “hump.” It can be applied to anything that appears to have a hump on its back, such as a camel. A gibbous Moon appears to have a hump on top of its round half. Planets can appear gibbous as well. Mercury and Venus are inside Earth's orbit around the Sun, so they can follow the same cycle of phases as the Moon — from thin crescents to almost full. We don't see them as new or full because, during those phases, they're passing between Earth and the Sun, or behind the Sun. Planets outside Earth's orbit never appear in a crescent phase, but they can appear gibbous, depending on our viewing angle. Stars, on the other hand, are always full. They generate their own light, so the viewing angle doesn't matter — unlike the Moon, which will have a “hump” on its back for another week. Script by Damond Benningfield

After the Full Moon of January 25 the shape of the lunar disc will decrease into a thinner oval each night called the Waning Gibbous.

Jim Rutledge and Matt Hamilton get their first chance to catch up on a long feast weekend of sports for the Wisconsin sports teams -- the Packers win vs. Detroit on Thanksgiving, the Badgers reclaiming the Axe against Minnesota, and Badgers volleyball once again clinching a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Jim provides his reaction to the Packers' win by asking why fans aren't giving Joe Barry and apology for how good the defense has been. Matt, Jim and Primetime all share their current feeling about Jordan Love after perhaps his best win of the season during the Love-O-Meter. Chris Orr joins the show to talk Badger football's win against the Gophers. Jim starts by asking Chris if he would take a bite out of the mascot in the Pop Tart Bowl, and then they get into a conversation about how the team's roster will change with the transfer portal opening next week and what the team's upcoming Bowl game could look like for some of the team's (likely) outgoing players like Braelon Allen.

In a special event, the guys recap week 12 INCLUDING their immediate reactions to the VIkings/Bears on MNF. Adam wears a giant hat, Dustin gets a rare W, and Jordan Love is a 100% guaranteed first ballot hall of famer (who was robbed of his Turkey).

Even though the nights are cooling down, throw on that coat and grab your binoculars for a look at the Moon! There are many special features to look for.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for July 10, 2022 is: gibbous • JIB-us • adjective Gibbous is most often used to describe a moon or planet that is seen with more than half, but not all, of the apparent disk illuminated. // The lake's calm surface glistened under the light of the waxing gibbous moon.

Something wicked this way comes. The turning of the sphere's wait for no one and time is running out. The Nearlies now have the location of their enemies next move: the Legendary Briar tower where Rapunzel was held so long ago has once again become her prison. With a legend like her, the realms could be rallied to a common cause, but her mother has never been one to give her up easily and the Nearlies are about to find out few enemies are worse to have than a mother scorned and there will be terrible prices to pay indeed if they truly wish to become heroes.
