This week with the Full Moon lunar eclipse Wednesday the 26th at 7:14 AM EDT in Sagittarius
“Watchers of the night sky are in for a treat this week with the arrival of what has been dubbed a Super Flower Blood Moon. The lengthy name is the result of a few astronomical phenomena coming together at once. The supermoon will be visible all over the world, and the full lunar eclipse will be visible in many parts of the world, including the western United States. Early risers in the U.S. can catch a spectacular view of the moon Wednesday morning before sunrise, but what you’ll be able to see will depend largely on where you live.
Why it’s “super”: The shape of the moon’s orbit around the Earth is not a perfect circle, but an oval. When a full moon reaches the point closest to our planet on its elliptical orbit, it’s called a supermoon, or perigee-syzygy, and appears larger than usual in the sky.
Why it’s “flower”: Full moons that occur in May are sometimes known as flower moons. According to The Old Farmer’s Almanac, the name is a reference to the flowers that are blooming in May and has been attributed to Native American, Colonial American and European sources.
Why it’s “blood”: On Wednesday morning, the moon will also appear blood red as it aligns with the sun and Earth and passes fully into Earth’s shadow, or umbra. This will be the first total lunar eclipse since 2019. The moon’s red hue is caused by red-orange light refracted through Earth’s atmosphere and can appear even redder if there are more clouds or dust in Earth’s atmosphere, according to NASA.
The biggest draw of this celestial event is that a supermoon and a total lunar eclipse are occurring simultaneously. In the past 10 years, there have been just nine total lunar eclipses. Supermoons are more common — they typically occur several times a year.” – NPR
