Is there a month with 2 full moons and if which one?
Yes, there can be a month with two full moons, commonly referred to as a "blue moon." This phenomenon occurs approximately every 2.5 to 3 years due to the lunar cycle, which is about 29.5 days long. The most recent instance of a month having two full moons was in August 2023, when the first full moon occurred on August 1 and the second on August 30.

New moon is approximately two weeks after full moon.
What happens when Earth has 2 full moons in one calendar month?
Nothing extraordinary happens. Though not very frequently, there will be two full moons in one month due the the moon's cycle and our calender system. By the way, the second full moon of that month is called a "blue moon" (that's where the phrase "once in a blue moon" comes from). It is interesting that there are other ways to define Blue Moon. See link for more information.

Is a blue moon possible?
Normally there are 3 full moons every quarter year, one per month. But there is about an 11 day difference between a 12 full moon, or new moon, lunar year and a 12 month Earth solar year. These days add up until it results in a month with 2 full moons. One at the beginning of the month and 1 at the end of the month. This can also result in a very rare 2 blue moon year. The calculation depends on where you live. So while N. America will have only 1 blue moon in Jan. 2010, Australia will see blue moons in both January and March. The reverse happened in 1999. A blue moon happens about every 2.5 years and a double blue moon occurs about 5 times in a century. The term "blue moon" means an extra full moon but we can have, and have had, blue colored moons. Generally this is a result of airborne particles like volcanic ash or smoke.
