People across much of the world are going to witness the Worm Moon eclipse on Monday, March 25.
According to the Farmer's, sometimes nicknamed the "Worm Moon" for the worms and beetles commonly seen emerging at the beginning of spring, it is the third full Moon of 2024, according to Live Science.
Resulting in a slight penumbral lunar eclipse that will make the full Moon appear dimmer as an odd-looking shadow moves across its surface, Almanac will move through Earth's outer shadow.
Earth and the Sun will put the Moon on a celestial trajectory that will cause a total solar eclipse on April 8 contributing to the almost perfect alignment of the Moon.
There will be two important times to observe the Moon in North America. At dusk on Sunday, March 24, when the full Worm Moon will rise in the east, it can be witnessed first.
Whereas, the second observation window is a few hours later when the full Moon will move through Earth's outer shadow, its penumbra between 12:53am and 5:32am EDT, during the early hours of Monday, March 25.
Enough sunlight will be blocked from reaching the Moon to cause 95% of the lunar surface to be in shadow at the event’s peak.
