The letter E appears twice in the word week but only once in the word year.. People can be tricked by focusing on trying to identify an event that happens twice during the span of a week but only once during the span of a year.

The first full moon was spotted on 1 July and the second will appear on the last day of the month â Friday, July 31. This appearance is the first such occurrence in three years since the last blue moon month in August 2012, the next will not be until January 2018. Astronomers predict it will only happen on 12 occasions between now and 2043.
The full moon occurs every 29.53058 days. New Moon - A new moon occurs when the moon is between the earth and the sun. We are seeing the oposite side of the moon that the sun is shinning on. At the exact time of the New moon the moon is to close to the sun to see at all. Blue Moon - Today we consider the Blue Moon to be when a full moon occurs twice in one month. This is a relatively new concept for the term. Originaly a blue moon was considered to be when a full moon occured 4 times in a season.
