Pink Moon On April 28

Pink Moon On April 28

Not a blue moon, but rather a pink moon is predicted for April 28. Why is it called the pink moon. April's full moon is traditionally called the pink full moon, but it doesn't mean that the coloration will be any different. From Space.com:

“The grass pink or wild phlox moon is one of the earliest widespread flowers of the spring. Other names were the Full Sprouting Grass Moon, the Egg Moon and - among coastal tribes - the Full Fish Moon, when the shad come upstream to spawn. The moon will also undergo a very slight partial lunar eclipse, which will be visible from the Eastern Hemisphere, but not from North America.
