SUMMARY:Lunar eclipse watch party
DESCRIPTION:Come watch the Moon turn red with us! 🌕 \nCronyn Observatory is hosting a Lunar Eclipse Watch Party on Thursday\, August 27\, from 9 PM to 1 AM. We’ll have telescopes set up and ready for you. \n\nWhat you’ll see: At its peak\, almost the entire Moon — about 96% of it — will be swallowed by Earth’s shadow\, leaving just a thin bright sliver along one edge. The rest will glow deep red and copper. \n\nTiming: The eclipse starts around 9:20 PM\, but the real show begins near 10:30 PM\, when you’ll see a dark bite appear on the Moon’s face. It’s at its deepest and reddest around 12:15 AM\, then the shadow slowly slides back off. Come whenever — it all happens gradually\, so there’s no single moment to miss. \nUnlike a solar eclipse\, this one is completely safe to watch with your own eyes. Binoculars help\, and our telescopes will give you a spectacular view. \nFree\, family-friendly\, and no registration required. We hope to see you there! \nVenue: Cronyn Observatory\, Western University \nDate: Thursday\, August 27th\, 2026 \nTime: 9:00 pm to 1:00 am \nIn the event of unfavourable weather\, we will post a cancellation notice on our website and social media.
