Eclipse season begins July 27 with total solar and deep partial lunar eclipses

An eclipse season, a period when the Earth, moon, and sun align for eclipses, begins on July 27 and will last until August 31. This season features two major celestial events: a total solar eclipse on August 12, visible in parts of Greenland and Iceland, and a deep partial lunar eclipse on August 27-28, where nearly 96% of the moon will be obscured by Earth's shadow. These alignments occur because the moon's orbital path is tilted relative to Earth's orbit, and during an eclipse season, the sun passes close enough to the points where these paths intersect. AI
