2024 : Full moons, meteor showers and eclipses to look for in 2024



The night sky in 2024 has a dazzling calendar full of celestial events to get excited about! 



Here are some highlights to mark on your cosmic calendar: Full Moons: Each month will have a magnificent full moon, with traditional and poetic names like Wolf Moon (January), Snow Moon (February), Worm Moon (March), and so on. September and October will even grace us with supermoons, appearing larger and brighter than usual. Meteor Showers: The year kicks off with the Quadrantid meteor shower in early January, followed by the Lyrids in April and the Eta Aquarids in May. Summer brings the Perseids in August, known for their fast and bright meteors. October boasts the Orionids, peaking around October 20-21, and the Draconids around October 8-9. November ends with the South and North Taurids, known for their occasional fireballs. Remember, the moon's brightness can affect how many meteors you see, so plan your stargazing around moonless nights when possible. Eclipses: The main event of the year is the total solar eclipse on April 8th, visible across parts of Mexico, the United States, and Canada. This rare spectacle won't be seen again in North America until 2026, so if you're within the path of totality, don't miss it! October 2nd offers an annular solar eclipse over parts of South America, featuring a "ring of fire" effect. A penumbral lunar eclipse will paint the moon with a subtle shadow on March 24-25, visible across most continents. Bonus: The sun is expected to reach solar maximum in mid-to-late 2024, potentially causing auroras visible at higher latitudes. Resources: You can find more detailed information about these events, including specific dates and peak times, on websites like EarthSky, Space.com, or Time and Date. Check local astronomy clubs or planetariums for stargazing parties and events in your area. So, get ready to gaze in awe, make wishes on shooting stars, and soak up the celestial wonders of 2024! 



 Do you have any specific questions about any of these events, or would you like recommendations for resources about a particular phenomenon? I'm happy to help you further explore the wonders of the universe.
