The Astronomy Calendar For 2018 Looks To Be Amazing, Starting This Month
This month alone we have had a full super moon and meteor shower and we’ll top this month off with a Blue Moon but it doesn’t stop there.
With that full moon on the 31st of this month is a total lunar eclipse. Then a partial solar eclipse in Feb, March brings Mercury’s greatest elongation. Once spring finally arrives we have the Lyrids Meteor shower to look forward to plus Eta Aquarids in May. Watch the video to get the full menu of star show in the night sky for 2018 and then don’t forget to mark your calendar.
