The residents of the UAE have enjoyed the recent beauty of the Perseids Meteor Shower. Now they are going to enjoy the splendid beauty of the moon. On August 19, the Supermoon—often referred to as the Blue Moon—will illuminate the night sky.
This event happens when the Moon is at its closest point to Earth. As a result, the moon appears more bright and large. In this position, the Moon is positioned directly opposite the Sun. The Earth comes in between. So, the moon shows a fully illuminated face that is prominently visible.
But that’s not all! The night sky will also feature a special treat. Jupiter and Mars will come together in a rare conjunction. This event will provide the stargazers with a unique chance. They will see these two planets appearing closer than usual.
Stargazers in the UAE are encouraged to find a location away from city lights. It will be the best view of these breathtaking cosmic events. So, mark your calendars and get ready for an enchanting night!
