How often are there 13 full moons in one year?

There are more than 250 planetary satellites currently documented in thesolar system, including exactly one in orbit around the earth.Perhaps when you say "13 moons", you're asking about 13 full moons in onecalendar year.As pathetic as it must appear on a Q-&-A site to be responsible for definingone's own questions before answering them, we'll rise to the bait nonetheless.If the first Full Moon of the calendar year occurs by January 10th, then there'senough time remaining in that year for 12 more.Since there's no mathematical relationship between the phases of the moon andthe modern calendar, we can assume that over the long term of many years, thefirst Full Moon of the year is equally likely to occur on any one of the first 30 daysof January. So the chance of it arriving in the first 10 days must be 10 out of 30.Consequently and accordingly, we'll say that on the average, one year out of threehas 13 Full Moons.
