March 14 2025 "Worm Moon" total lunar eclipse "Blood Moon" above NDG #Montréal, shot at ISO 400 on a Nikon D810 DSLR using a 400mm f5.6 ED-IF Nikkor telephoto lens set to f8. I used my hat as the shutter to minimize vibration. #WormMoon #TotalLunarEclipse #BloodMoon #MTLmoments

The #MarchEquinox, also known as the vernal or spring equinox in the northern hemisphere, will occur on March 20, 2025, at 11:06 AM EDT. This marks the point when the Sun crosses the celestial equator, making day and night nearly equal in length.

What does our Milky Way Galaxy look like from the side? Because we are on the inside, humanity can’t get an actual picture. Recently, however, just such a map has been made using location data for over a billion stars from ESA’s Gaia mission. The resulting featured illustration
