The Night sky will hold a rather special appearance of the moon tonight, as there will be 3 different phenomena occurring.
First, the moon will be very close in its orbit, second, it will rise sooner, lasting from dawn until dusk, and finally, we'll also see a partial eclipse.
That first effect is known as a Super moon, which happens 3-4 times a year, and the second is a harvest moon, which is regular this time of year.
Having both occur with a partial eclipse is a rather rare occurance.
The partial eclipse will make the part of the top of the moon darkened by the earth's shadow, and the rest of the moon will have a larger appearance and soft orange appearance.
Be sure to get out and see it for yourself tonight!
