The Full Moon is Monday March 25. There is a very disappointing penumbral lunar eclipse at this time, where the outer part of earth’s shadow brushes against the Moon, resulting in a subtle darkening of the Moon. sadly, most of the eclipse takes place before the moon rises into the very early evening twilight, so will be nearly impossible to see. The Moon is at apogee, when it is furthest from Earth, on the 24th.
