Full Moon Calendar 1980

In 1980, there were 13 full moons on the calendar. This was an interesting year because depending on the timezone, there were one or two blue moons.

From an United States Eastern time zone perspective, we had blue moons in January and March. February 1980 had a black moon as a result as it did not have a full moon at all.

The second January full moon was so late in the day that it slipped into the beginning of February when looking at this in the UTC timezone.

For both the Eastern Time Zone and UTC March had a blue moon.

The second full moon in March coincided with a penumbral lunar full moon eclipse. there were also penumbral lunar full moon eclipses in March and July 1980.

The dates and times are provided by NASA in Eastern Standard Time (EST) with Daylight Saving Time (DST) for part of the year. Also below is the Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) time. This was previously referred to at Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
