Don't Miss It! Micromoon and Eclipses Coming!
by Alex Ingram in AstronomyMay's full moon, also known as the Flower Moon, will be visible on Sunday and Monday even though it is a micromoon (when the moon is furthest from Earth). The moon will be 251,939 miles away from Earth. Different indigenous tribes have varying names for this moon, including the Mulberry Moon, Frog Moon, and Blossom Moon. After this final micromoon of 2025, seven more full moons will occur, with supermoons in October, November, and December. A total lunar eclipse (potentially a 'blood moon') will be visible from various parts of the world on September 7th and 8th. A partial solar eclipse will also occur on September 21st, visible from more remote areas.
