THAT ECLIPSE IN APRIL WAS STUNNING, THEN WE SAW SOLAR STORMS AND AURORAS IN MAY?
NOW WE’VE GOT A MOSTLY-PENUMBRAL LUNAR ECLIPSE!!
OKAY, THEY’RE NOT REALLY IN THE SAME LEAGUE, BUT IF YOU DON’T LOVE ASTRONOMY FOR THE PARTIAL LUNAR, THEN YOU DON’T DESERVE IT AT TOTAL SOLAR, YOU KNOW?
TO SEE IT, HIT THE DARKNESS NEXT TUESDAY LOOKING EAST AT THE EQUIVALENT OF 8:30 PM EASTERN.
THE ECLIPSE WILL START ABOUT 45 MINUTES LATER.
THE OUTER PART OF EARTH’S SHADOW, THE PENUMBRA, IS GOING TO FULLY COVER THE MOON MAKING IT LOOK DARKER THAN USUAL.
WHILE THAT’S HAPPENING LOOK FOR SATURN, STILL GREAT TO SEE AFTER LAST WEEK’S OPPOSITION.
OR LOOK ABOVE THE MOON FOR PEGASUS’S SQUARE OF SCHEAT, MARKAB, ALGENIB AND ALPHERATZ !
DID YOU KNOW ECLIPSES COME WITH FRIENDS?
THE PARTNER OF THIS ONE IS AN ANNULAR SOLAR ECLIPSE ON OCTOBER SECOND WAY DOWN IN SOUTH AMERICA.
STAY TUNED AND KEEP LOOKIN’ UP!
