Astronomy fans can look up and see the Flower Moon this month as May’s full moon rises.
May’s full moon will reach peak illumination on Thursday at 9:53 a.m. EDT, but it already appears full, according to NASA. The Old Farmer’s Almanac details specific moonrise times for different ZIP codes across the U.S.
The moon will be below the horizon in the U.S. at the time of peak illumination, so the Farmer’s Almanac suggests spectators check it out on Wednesday or Thursday night instead.
Perseids meteor shower won’t peak until August. Come Oct. 2, an annular solar eclipse will be visible in parts of South America with a partial eclipse visible in parts of South America, Antarctica, Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean and North America.
