Moon, Venus, and Antares align; deep lunar eclipse nears

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

This week, stargazers can observe a waxing crescent moon aligning with Venus and the bright star Spica. Later in the week, the moon will appear near Antares, a star known for its reddish hue and resemblance to Mars. The Milky Way will be prominently visible in the night sky, especially in the early part of the week before the moon brightens. Preparations can also be made for a significant deep partial lunar eclipse occurring on August 27-28, where 96% of the moon will be obscured by Earth's shadow, offering a spectacle of copper and red hues.
