Partial Lunar Eclipse of the Harvest Supermoon Set for September 17

The rare celestial event will be visible across multiple continents, with Saturn adding to the spectacle.

Observers in North America, South America, Europe, and Africa will have optimal views of the event.
The eclipse will reach its peak at 10:44 p.m. EDT on September 17, with 8.7% of the moon in Earth's shadow.
This full moon is a supermoon, appearing larger and brighter due to its proximity to Earth.
The partial eclipse will be a prelude to an annular solar eclipse occurring on October 2.
Viewing with binoculars or telescopes can enhance the experience, though it's not necessary.
