- - Timeanddate is streaming from multiple global sites from 10:30 MEZ, the Virtual Telescope Project begins at 09:30 MEZ, and Griffith Observatory plans coverage weather permitting.
- - The Moon’s red hue occurs because Earth’s atmosphere bends and filters sunlight, sending predominantly red wavelengths into the umbra.
