Patrick Simmons+FollowBuck Moon: The Moon That Disappears?!Ever heard of a 'buck moon'? It's the rare lunar event where the moon totally vanishes from the night sky—no glow, just pure darkness. This year, it's happening on August 23, and you won’t see the moon at all because its dark side faces Earth. It only happens about every 2.5 years! Mark your calendar, because after this, the next one isn’t until 2028. Kinda wild how the universe keeps us on our toes, right? #Science #BuckMoon #LunarEvents90Share
Michelle York+FollowStrawberry Moon: Not Red, Still WildThe 2025 Strawberry Moon is coming, and no, it’s not actually red! This full moon (peaking June 11) is the lowest of the year, making it look extra huge on the horizon. If you’re in Oceania, you’ll see it literally turn off a star (Antares) as it passes in front of it—how cool is that? Plus, Mars will be hanging out nearby. Pro tip: snap your moon pics at moonrise for the best shot! #StrawberryMoon #Skywatching #LunarEvents #Science192Share
