Tomorrow night, January 13, 2025, Mars, the brightest object on the lower part of the photo, will appear to be eaten by the Moon. In a rare event that occurs about once every 14 years, the Moon will pass in front of Mars, hiding it from view for a few hours. The event will be visible for most of the US; for those of us in Ocala, Florida, it will start about 8:44 PM. Mars will later reappear from the opposite side of the moon, undigested, about 52 minutes after midnight. For times at other locations, see: https://in-the-sky.org/news.php?id=20250114_16_100
I will be out with my telescope to watch it, providing that both don’t get “eaten” by clouds.
