A Once-in-a-Lifetime Occurrence

Today is the summer solstice, the longest day in the year and the beginning of summer. This year, the summer solstice coincides with the full moon, the "Strawberry Moon," so called because it marks the beginning of strawberry season not because the moon looks red. The summer solstice and the Strawberry Moon coincide only once every seventy years.
