Get ready for a cosmic spectacle: this Thursday night into Friday, nearly the entire moon will be plunged into Earth’s shadow in a dramatic 96% partial lunar eclipse — a stunning follow-up to last month’s solar eclipse. With billions across the Americas, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East in position to witness it (and even astronauts aboard the ISS and China’s space station), this is one of the most widely viewable eclipses of the year. The reddish-orange glow will peak just after midnight ET, lasting over three hours with the full event stretching five and a half hours. It’s also a pivotal moment for space exploration — as NASA’s Artemis II mission recently flew by the moon en route to building a base there — proving that humanity’s gaze is firmly set on the stars, even as we marvel at the celestial dance above.
