Get ready for a partial lunar eclipse and supermoon, all rolled into one. The spectacle will be visible in clear skies across North America and South America Tuesday night and in Africa

A giant moon with a chunk taken out of it was visible in the skies on Tuesday night. Here are some of the best shots in case you missed it.

As the Earth passes between the sun and the moon, a fleeting shadow will be cast on the planet's only natural satellite on Tuesday.

The skies will light up Tuesday night with a double lunar phenomenon: the Harvest supermoon and a partial lunar eclipse. Supermoons are full moons that appear larger because they happen in tandem with the lunar orbit’s closest approach to earth.

Sky gazers can look forward to the next total lunar eclipse, which will take place March 13 through March 14, 2025. But in the meantime, photographers around the world captured stunning photos of the full moon, from China and Australia to the U.S. and beyond.

Skygazers were treated to a spectacular celestial sight Tuesday night as the orange-ish Harvest supermoon coincided with a partial lunar eclipse.

A supermoon is what happens when a full moon coincides with perigee, or when the moon is closest to the Earth, and it looks bigger than normal.

It's called the "harvest moon" because its bright light would shine down late into the night while the early settlers worked on bringing in the September harvest.

Not only is September's full moon also a so-called "supermoon" because of its size and brightness, but it's also due to be eclipsed by Earth.
