🌕✨ HARVEST MOON – 3 MARCH ✨🌕

South Africa’s skies will glow with the beautiful Harvest Moon on 3 March 🌾🌙

Traditionally named for the full moon closest to the autumn harvest, this moon rises bright and golden shortly after sunset, lighting up the landscape in warm tones.

Look toward the eastern horizon after sunset and watch as it climbs higher into the night sky – bigger, brighter, and breathtaking. 🌅

Will you be watching, Bloemfontein? 👀✨

Alpha Centaurids: February’s meteor show! 🌠

On February 8, the Alpha Centaurid meteor shower will reach its peak, bringing around 6 meteors per hour under dark skies.

🌍 Best seen from the Southern Hemisphere (the radiant is in Centaurus). This year’s observing conditions are quite good – the Last Quarter Moon means only moderate moonlight. To catch more meteors, start watching after midnight, when the Moon sits lower.

Here is how to watch:

• Find a dark spot with a wide view of the sky around the constellation Centaurus
• Give your eyes 15–20 minutes to adapt
• Look away from bright lights (and away from the Moon if it’s still up)

👇 Use this guide to catch all the meteors of the Alpha Centaurids:
