Lunar eclipse set to transform night sky in August
✦AI Summary
August 2026 will feature significant astronomical events, including the peak of the Perseid meteor shower and a partial lunar eclipse. While a total solar eclipse will occur, it will only be partially visible from New England.
As we wrap up these final days of July and head into August, one of the things that will be decreasing is the amount of daylight. But for folks interested in the night sky, that means more darkness to work with, and that brings some wonderful opportunities, including a partial lunar and, to a lesser extent, solar eclipse.
