Sorry if this is in the wrong forum.

I live in the capital of Canada, and today I have noticed things to be much clearer (sight-wise). This may be because I've been outside much more today than usual, but whatever. Cold air also seems to make things look clearer, too.

Anyways, I was looking at the moon, and noticed that it was A: full, B: clear, and C: bright. I stared at it for about 10 seconds, and started to notice a small blue glow that would surround the moon. It even moved! My cameras don't seem to be able to get a clear (or large enough) picture of the moon, so that's out of the question. The colour is darker than normal blue sky, but brighter than night sky.

What I want to know is if this is a trick of the eye or it has to do with something else.

I can look directly at it from my roof window now, and when I keep looking it for a few seconds a blue rim quickly appears. Googled it but found no match to what might cause this.

Maybe its ice in the atmosphere and the moon's light is making the halo of ice stand out?

I remember reading somewhere that even though it has been stated that the moon definitely has no atmosphere, from time to time, wisps of one can be seen. The conjecture surrounding this phenomenon are as varied as anything else.
Some of which are,
*water vapor being melted from the caps and re crystallizing into ice and falling back to the surface.
*sub surface discharge of gasses?
*Stray gasses caught by the gravity of the planetesimal.
*lost gasses from earth being reclaimed by the moon.

dont wanna ruin things here, but could it not be that because you have stared at it for so long the brightness of the moon causes a somewhat glare shine from it, its the same as them optical illusions where you look at something then tilt your head back and close your eyes.

I'm also in Ontario and noticed the same thing. I didn't stare at it because its minus 22 celsius, but I definitely saw a blue haze.

Should be the same tomorrow its 100% full.

Well the blue glow you are seeing is caused by staring at an object for too long. If you look at an object that is orange on a dark blue back ground. Then stare at it for 15 seconds you will think that it is moving. Or better yet, if you stare at a orange dot on a white back ground for 30 seconds. then remove the dot and look at the white back ground, you'll see a green dot. It is the rods and cones in your eyes coming back to that area to fix the area where that image was just burned into. It is all an optical illusion.

The blue halo could have something to do with the moon being seen through ice cold atmosphere. Just like the sky appears to be blue on a sunny day, this may have something to do with it. Then the rest could be the fact of staring at the moon and "seeing things" a bit due to reaction from your eyes.
Or else,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,could there be Aurora Borialis on the moon? Electro magnetic phenominon. Signs in sun, moon and stars, dont have to be nature defying.
