Turn your eyes to the sky on Tuesday for an extra special full moon.
The harvest moon, or closest full moon to the autumnal equinox, will also be a supermoon, appearing larger and brighter in the night sky. If that wasn’t enough, there will also be a partial lunar eclipse.
The full moon and lunar eclipse will be Tuesday night, Sept. 17, into Wednesday morning.
Stargazers will be treated to a moon that is 14 per cent larger than normal. It will be blood red in colour, creating an eerie autumn effect.
The color – called a blood moon – is seen during partial or total lunar eclipses.
The twin event will be visible in Europe, South America, Africa, and much of North America.
Much of the civilized world will get to see this blood red moon.
Subsequently, a spectacular comet that has been dubbed “the comet of the century” by astronomers will be visible in the night sky starting in late September…
C/2023 A3, also known as Tsuchinshan–ATLAS and considered “the comet of the century,” will appear in all its splendor in our sky during September and October 2024. Due to its characteristics, astronomers believe it will be exceptionally bright, similar to Halley’s comet in 1986 or NEOWISE in 2020.
Apparently you will be able to see this comet even if you aren’t using a telescope.
It is being reported that it will be shining the brightest on October 2nd…
C/2023 A3 will shine in the northern hemisphere sky from September 27 and will remain visible until the last week of October. During this period, the comet will reach its minimum distance from the sun, before beginning its journey back out of the solar system.
According to the specialized blog Cometography, the day when C/2023 A3 will shine the brightest will be October 2. The comet’s tail will be long and spectacular at this point due to its proximity to the sun.
A “ring of fire” solar eclipse will literally be occurring on the exact same day that “the comet of the century” is the brightest.
And all of this will be happening just as the festival of Rosh Hashanah is beginning.
As I discussed in a previous article, only 2 solar eclipses occur in 2024, and both of them fall on very noteworthy dates…In recent years, we have seen so many noteworthy eclipses happen, but most of the population is still not paying attention.
And most of the population also doesn’t seem to realize that our planet is becoming increasingly unstable.
On Monday, southern California was shaken by yet another sizable earthquake…
