Pi Day to Eclipse Them All | March 3 - March 9 | Star Gazers

454 __________

Astro-friends, get ready for an unforgettable night! Next week, on March 14th (Pi Day!), a total lunar eclipse will light up the sky. At the stroke of midnight Eastern Time, look straight up next to Regulus in Leo the Lion to witness the Moon slowly transform into a deep, rusty red as Earth’s shadow completely covers it.

Why is this so special? Not only is this one of 2025’s must-see astronomical events, but it also lands on Pi Day (3.14)—the famous mathematical constant that helps us calculate circles, spacecraft fuel tanks, and telescope mirrors! 🚀🔭

So, which is more mind-blowing—the cosmic dance of the eclipse or the infinite mysteries of Pi? That’s for you to decide! Set your reminders, look up, and don’t miss this spectacular night sky event! ✨
