🌕✨ A Night Under the Shadowed Moon!

On March 3, 2026, the Earth, Moon, and Sun will align perfectly — casting Earth’s shadow on the Moon in a spectacular Total Lunar Eclipse! During this rare event, the Moon won’t disappear completely but will glow in shades of deep red or copper, often called a “Blood Moon.”

Join us at the Carabao Island Observatory for a free telescope viewing and experience this celestial wonder up close. 🌌

Prefer to stay indoors? Don’t worry — we’ll be live streaming the eclipse here on social media and on the big screen inside the observatory.

Bring your sense of wonder, your friends, and your cameras — the universe has a story to tell, and you’ve got the best seat in the house!
