The Full Moon Perfectly Lined Up Inside The Eiffel Tower’s Olympic Rings: See The Dazzling Photos

As if the Olympic rings were not stunning enough on their own, spectators got an extra special treat earlier this week. The Eiffel Tower was truly a sight to behold as the full moon perfectly lined up inside the 2024 Olympic rings. While there were multiple stunning shots, none were more spectacular than when the moon landed right in the middle. See the photos below. When the moon kisses the Olympic Rings at the Eiffel Tower.

While people were amazed by the stunning photos, it got people wondering about the meaning behind the rings. The Olympic rings are a global representation of the Olympic Movement and the activities that accompany it. According to Olympics.com, “the Olympic symbol expresses the activity of the Olympic Movement and represents the union of the five continents and the meeting of athletes from throughout the world at the Olympic Games.”  Although the rings in the photos from the Paris Olympics are white, there are variations with color. “When used in its five-colour version, these colours shall be, from left to right, blue, yellow, black, green and red.” When Is The Full Moon? Gautam Ramuvel/Unsplash Full moons occur about every 29.5 days, or once a month. Those 29 some days are roughly the amount of time it takes for the moon to complete a lunar cycle. Using math, calendars, and calculations it is relatively easy to predict when the next full moon should be. For example, the next full moon is estimated to be on August 19th. With the perfection of this photo, you almost have to wonder if the placement of the rings, and the date of the Paris Olympics was an intentional choice. While I bet it was just sheer luck, that does not make the photos any less spectacular. It almost looks as if the moon was playing with the rings. Starting off in the bottom left ring, and then moving into the center ring. Finally, to end beneath the center ring, almost as if it was a new, sixth Olympic ring. It truly was an incredible sight that all those who gathered for the Paris Olympics were lucky enough to enjoy.
