Question

Super Blood Moon, which is a rare astronomical phenomenon hasn't happened since ________, and won't happen again until ________

• A. 1982, 2033
• B. 1980, 2035
• C. 1978, 2032
• D. 1975, 2031

Hint:

The 2015 event was tied to a gap of a little over 30 years on each side.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

This event needs two rare things to line up on the same night: the moon being closest to earth (supermoon) and a total lunar eclipse turning it red (blood moon).

1. Such combinations are uncommon, which is why the gaps between them run several decades.
2. The 2015 Super Blood Moon was reported as the first since 1982, making that the "hasn't happened since" year.
3. Reporting at the time around the event pointed to 2033 as the next time this exact combination would occur again.

Putting the two years together gives 1982 and 2033, which is option A.
