In just a few days (on November 18-19), there's an “almost” total lunar eclipse. The Moon will be in a beautiful part of the sky for this event; this image from our Night Sky Map shows the view from New York City around the time of the maximum eclipse.pic.twitter.com/2ejR0K47tM

Meanwhile, in the other direction from Orion’s Belt—on the far left of this image—we find Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky. Watch the eclipse live with us: https://www.timeanddate.com/live/eclipse-lunar-2021-november-19 …pic.twitter.com/FQrRUGd2fF
