亚利桑那州上空的粉红色月亮(A pink moon over Arizona)

满月在夜空中可以是令人敬畏、明亮和美丽的。人类对月球如此着迷,以至于我们给它起了几十个名字来描述它的许多变体:蓝月亮、丰收月亮、猎人月亮和海狸月亮等等。四月的第一个满月是粉红色的月亮,以早春盛开的粉红色野花命名。我们在这里看到的月亮可能是粉红色的,但不是因为日期的原因。阳光从月球反射,穿过大气层,在那里灰尘、污染、烟雾或其他颗粒物散射光线,并将其颜色从白色或蓝色变为红色、橙色、黄色或粉红色。当月亮在天空中悬挂得较低时,我们可以通过更多的大气层来观察它,因此更有可能出现不同的颜色。也许这轮粉红色的月亮是被亚利桑那沙漠的尘埃染上的。

A full moon can be awe-inspiring, luminous, and beautiful in the night sky. Humanity is so enthralled with the moon that we’ve given it dozens of names to describe its many variants: blue moon, harvest moon, hunter’s moon, and beaver moon to name a few. April’s first full moon is the pink moon, named after the pink wildflowers that bloom in early spring. This moon we see here may be pink, but not due to the date. Sunlight reflects off the moon and travels through our atmosphere where dust, pollution, smoke, or other particles scatter the light and change its color from white or blue light to red, orange, yellow, or pink. When the moon hangs lower in the sky, we view it through more of our atmosphere - so varied colours are more likely. Perhaps this pink moon is tinged by the dust of the Arizona desert.
