SUMMARY:August 27\, 2026 Lunar Eclipse
DESCRIPTION:PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT– On the evening of August 28\, wherever you are you can watch the moon slide into the shadow of the earth and create an almost-full lunar eclipse.  \nNo matter where the earth sits in its orbit around the Sun\, and regardless of the time of day\, the sunlight hitting the earth also creates a 3D shadow behind the earth in the shape of a cone. During 2-3 full moons each year\, the moon passes through this shadow on its way around the earth\, and as a result\, we see a darkening of the face of the moon. For this eclipse\, we will see an eclipse effect by 10:33pm\, with maximum eclipse at 12:12am of August 28. Then for the next few hours\, the moon will exit the shadow and come back into full sunlight. \nWe are not planning a public session at the observatory. The best views will be naked eye anywhere that you have a clear view of the moon. For questions or comments\, please contact us at astronomy@lymelandtrust.org. \nClear skies! \nPS\nClick here to see the full Trail 53 Astrophotography Gallery! \n\nThe Lyme Land Trust Astronomy Group aspires to inspire and pursue the advancement of knowledge of astronomy through public outreach programs including but not limited to observation events\, education programs\, and presentations about varied astronomical topics by our members and guest speakers.  \nIf you like these programs and you are not currently a Lyme Land Trust Member\, please consider joining us using the green Become A Member link at the top of the LLT page.
